Buy Me Some Peanuts And A Blackjack

I don’t care if I ever get whacked!
It looks like I made the right decision by going to the Riversharks game on Saturday. Why? Well, because someone was murdered at the Phillies game that night. Apparently, Philadelphia Phillies fans are looking to usurp Eagles fans as the biggest savages in town.
And they are succeeding.
One person was killed Saturday evening following a fight that ensued in the parking lot near Citizen’s Bank Park.
According to police, the fight started around the end of the Phillies and Cardinals game Saturday evening at McFadden’s bar and sprawled into parking lot ‘M’ across the street.
The victim, identified as David Sale, a 22-year-old male living in Lansdale, was badly beaten and transported to the Hospital at the University of Pennsylvania where he was pronounced dead shortly after 8 p.m.
22-years old. What the Hell is wrong with people?
According to a friend of the victim who spoke with CBS3, David Sale was in McFadden’s for a bachelor party when an altercation with a group of 20 to 25 people forced the party out of the bar.
The victim’s friend says at this point the arguments carried into the parking lot and a fight broke out where he claims, David was punched several times, knocked to the ground and kicked in the face.
Investigators have two people in custody in connection to this incident, charges are pending. (H/T – CBS3)
Good. Hopefully, these savages will be charged with murder, and the rest of their “posse” will be found and charged as well.

Young drunk punks = douchebags.

Sounds like it didn’t have anything to do with the game, just coincidental timing.

Savages.

One was a 47 or 48 year old man and I think another was in his 30s…What a bunch of d-bags! Over spilled beer. The third guy turned himself in, tonight.
Why are people so stupid and overreactive? I just don’t understand. Is it lack of education? Is it mental illness?
Dumb, dumb, dumb.
Sometimes I wish I could understand, so that I could cure the stupidity and inhumanity.

This is crazy to say the least.

Wyatt,
Maybe it’s time for you to pack the family up and move them on over to Camden. It just might be safer! :p
The who incident is ridiculous; add beer to the equation and it becomes a recipe for touble – or murder, which is exactly what happened.
No wonder sports fans here in the city get the wrap we do….

When you get a bunch of 20-something males together, they don’t share a whole functioning brain between them.

Hanging my head in shame……….it’s a dark day for Phillies fans. After attending the “College Day” game, something needs to be done down there.

Randal – Truer words were never written.
Doghouse – McFadden’s is on the stadium’s property, so it was indirectly linked, I think.
Crankipants – I concur.
RT – Forget about outlawing guns. Outlaw alcohol to the stupid.
Rick – Insanity at its finest. Hooray, Philadelphia!
Daisy – I’ll say this for the Riversharks – incidents of drunken idiots are the exception, rather than the norm. Granted, they are only dealing with about 6,000 people, but still . . .
MeToo – Although when I was 20, I wasn’t a drunken idiot. Okay, I was, but my friends and I kept our idiocy to ourselves.
The Girl – Stadium security there is a joke, and with Nutter “redeploying” officers, you won’t see a larger police presence, either. CBP is starting to look like Vet Stadium anymore.
It’s why I rarely go to pro sporting events now.
