Cool, how far is Downingtown from Fort Washington, we are staying there next weekend, I may have to try to get in there. I know Fatheads and Double Wide Grill here in Pgh both have the Hop Devil on their lists, so I will definately try it at one of those places!!!

45 minutes, maybe. Probably quicker. They just finished renovating last month I think, so I'm not sure what it is like now.

Seems that the Penguins fans are suffering from a bit of Patriotitis, a horrible disease where you find reasons to complain and and whine about winning and losing.  Its tragic, but relly just shows people's desire to moan and groan about any situation that is not actually 100%.  It is too bad.

No, I don't know how you came about that generalization, but if anything I give Flyers all the credit in the world and I called them an awesome team that is capable of turning this around on us. So please don't talk as if all of us are like that, because not all of us are. You deal with that sort of thing in ANY city with ANY fans. We were the worst team for how long now, and we finally got something going, so I'm grateful and I respect every damn team we hit the ice the with!

Hell no, Pitt fans probably do the same or just as worse. I should've phrased that better, that pretty much goes out to any fan. It's annoying when they do crap like that. I don't care if they payed for the seat. He can cheer and whatnot, but how is punching the glass, yelling , and acting tough not ridiculous? Even if I saw a Pens fan doing that, I'd call him an a$$hole. I'm not saying congratulate the person and he was not excited, he was angry, but there's no need to get up and starting punching the glass and sh*t. There are kids there and whatnot.

I'm not bashing Philly fans, because in my post I said "that one philly fan" (or something of that nature). I'm really excited about the win. I'm probably one of the most humble fans if you look at all my other posts. I do still fear the Flyers, regardless. i have all the respect in the world for them, because they worked their a$$ off to get where they are.

Mean, I guess the more I think about it, I'm being a little too harsh on that fan about it. It just bothered me, because I don't take things that seriously, but everybody is their own person and are different, so I'm in no position to be judging. I just sat there and thought, "dude... take a chill pill for God sakes." haha. You made your point though.

No biggie tweaker, it just sounded like you were bashing on a fan in Philly just because he was a fan in Philly.  There are stupid fans everywhere, and for some reason Philly always seems to get sh*t on more than anyone else.  Yes, Eagles fans cheered when Michael Irvin got hurt, but no Philly fans set cars on fire after barely winning the opening series, like Montreal did.

I apologize for jumping all over you, I just get very defensive when people pick on Philly for things that happen EVERYWHERE!

How bout them Flyers, btw?

No, it's cool man. I understand. Philly fans do get a bad rep. I really didn't mean to say "just philly fans", it was just that one. But, he was just having fun, haha.

Yeah, the car fires are RIDICULOUS. It's just a game, damn. The Flyers did a very good job. The Pens were clicking on all cylinders today, but the Flyers fought hard to get to where they did and nobody can take that away from them. The Flyers are going to have such a good hockey team for years to come, and I hope the Pens can keep it up. It would be awesome to have like a constant Pens vs Flyers Eastern Finals series like every year, hahaha. Such a great series to watch, I love it.
