So I had the greatest time of my entire fucking life this past Sunday.
Section 134 Row D, Seat 7. So fourth row on the Philly sideline on the 22-yard line away from that stupid kid's toy pirate ship that's in that dumb stadium.
It's up there for the best 3 and 1/2 hours of my life. Even though it was sweltering and I'm all sunburnt now and we sucked in the second half....... There was nowhere better to be on Earth for those few hours.
It was the best time of my life.
Only thing that could have made it better is if Pam was there, but whatever she'll be there next time.
Also the bucs are so goddamn pathetic on either side of their jumbotrons they have these big ass screens that are kind of like vertical and they play videos of various players like begging the fans to cheer. It's so embarrassing.
In my section it was all Eagles fans. I know I was on the Eagles sideline so obviously that's where all of us would congregate but there was 1 singular Bucs fan directly to the right of me and he was with an Eagles fan. And there were two Bucs fans one row in front and slightly to the right of me. That was literally it. Everybody else in my area were Birds fans. It was awesome. We were all high-fiving each other and like sweaty hugging and shit. We all kind of became great friends in that 3.5 hours.
If Heaven exists, it is being at an away Birds game that is dominated by Birds fans and we win. After every score we all sang Fly Eagles Fly without any prompting. It was just instinctual for all of us.
I'm not exaggerating. This was my section. Point out a Bucs fan..... It's hard to do. It was all Birds.

Also I paid way too much for the seats but fourth row is so fucking cool. It's the best seat I'll ever have in my life. It was worth it and awesome......Check it out. This pic Is without any zoom on my phone. It doesn't do justice to what my eyes were actually seeing.

Here's one with a bit of zoom that kind of simulates how I was seeing it from my seat.

The heat didn't even matter. At some point you just accept the heat and it's like fuck..... You're at a Birds game. Who cares? This is the best thing ever.
This is what a Dutchman in Heaven looks like.....
