I went to a show at Underground Arts and you couldn’t even tell there was a celebration going on. Color me shocked…we actually behaved civilly this time.

I won’t expect the same if we win the World Series but still.

After the Super Bowl win I don’t think anything will generate the same level of excitement/degeneracy again.

The Eagles Super Bowl victory was so monumental that it disproved the idea that man is superior to beast.

Even the morning after the super bowl the cop I asked about some of the weirder things on the police scanner summed it up with "There were some weird reports on the radio that turn out to be nothing and of course a few really stupid incidents you hear about on the news but it was mostly just crowd control. The overwhelming majority of people were just having a good time."

It depends if the Phillies manage to win and they do it on a home game it will get pretty crazy

I hear ya but the Super Bowl was something qualitatively different. Part of that is just the fact that football is much more popular/culturally dominant than baseball and part of that is that football generates much stronger emotions.

I don't disagree I just mean that having the championship won in the city is explosive. There will be 60,000+ people at the stadium and surrounding area along with all of the people in the city spilling on the streets.

Even just anecdotally the 2008 phillies WS celebration felt way more chaotic than the Eagles super bowl win.

The 2008 World Series celebrations were definitely more insane than the 2018 Super Bowl celebrations. I can't wait for that chaos again.

I would love it if there was a 45000+ person march from CBP to City Hall immediately after the Phillies win the Series at home.
