It’s like everyone here failed spirit week. I’m from Pittsburgh and even in the far flung suburbs there is spirit and support for our sports. This is lame!

Sports fans in D.C. tend to get in the faces of of people (who are minding their own business) wearing the opposing teams' shirt. I have seen it enough times, though second hand. Not a good look, in general.
You clearly havent spent time at many sporting events if you think DC fans are rough.
HAHAHAHHA. Wrong. DC fans are rude.
OMG truer words never spoken, in bold above. I’m married to a Giants/Mets fan. We have been to almost every Giants-Redskins game here since we met 25 years ago and tons of Mets-Nats games. No one ever hassles him just for wearing the other jersey, and he always does. We’ve been to multiple games for our teams in NY and Philly and get hassled constantly, and no, we don’t even wear jerseys in Philly, because that’s taking your life into your hands.

Folks in Philly will beat the Hell out of a fan from an opposing team. Philadelphia fans are hardcore and violent. They do not play in Philadelphia. If you dare to show up in a bar, hotel, or at any of their sporting events wearing an opposing team's jersey, then they will give you Hell.
Tip offs about Philly fans - they have a jail in the stadium for fans; they have to grease down traffic light poles to stop people from climbing them.

We flew in for the games because we love this team and have been following them out of state all year and were excited to be there. At the end of Sunday's game, the seats were half-empty by the 8th, and people were filing out while the Nats were batting in the bottom of the 9th. Sure, they weren't going to stage a six-run comeback, but this is a team that's fought hard all year, finally did something in the post-season and gave us all a World Series to enjoy in D.C. You can't stick around a give them hand?

If you think "baseball is boring AF" please don't go to a World Series game. Let people who enjoy the game purchase the tickets you would have.

Astros fans left early last night. In game 7.

I come to DC via Philly. You ain’t seen nothing.
I don't know what you guys are arguing about but, as far as worst fan base, Philly is the worst regardless of sports.

Another new poster. +1 million for Philly. We are Red Sox fans, too, and Yankees-Red Sox can be heated, but NOTHING like Philly. They're proud of it.
Remember it was Philly fans who came to DC and beat up the Chief.
+ another million. Also this:
