And Philadelphia Goes Crazy
The YouTubes are alive with the sound of unadulterated Philadelphia joy. These kids got in on their very on champagne bath celebration. More fan reactions below.
Feel free to add links to some of the best stuff you see out there.
Here's a nice little crowd on Broad Street:
And here's another view of Broad Street from some dude's balcony:
Here's one from Broad and Shunk.
This one's pretty good:
Let us know good ones you find.
Best night of my entire life...it wasnt even as close to as wild when the Eagles were going to the Superbowl in 2004...I was in Manayunk @ the Bayou for the game and it actually felt like you were at the game in there, the entire 8th and 9th innings were so loud it hurt your ears...and then they won and the cops blocked off main street so everyone could go in the streets and celebrate, i cannot stress enough how amazing this was...best night of my life im still drunk.

the first video seems like it was forced just for youtube. coldplay in the background was just silly. and at the end the one dope says "go birds", some one let him know the phils were playing last night.

We went crazy at Temple. I was at my buddy's apartment getting showered by beer, and then we decided to go out into the street with everyone else. We were going nuts...and then the cops directed us to broad street. There were a couple hundred people there. One of the most amazing experiences of my life. I couldn't describe to you how happy everyone was. They closed off part of Cecil B. Moore Ave, and Broad was down to one lane of traffic for us. I chose not to get drunk so I would remember every bit of it. I don't know if I'll do the same if they win the series.

of course, whether the Phillies win or lose the World Series, the fans will be sure to make it newsworthy.

I'm pretty sure that first video was shot where James Gumb kept the Senator's daughter.
