NBC news in Philadelphia reports that 91 minors were cited on Tuesday for underage drinking at Citizens Bank Park, while eight people were charged with showing false ID and nine with disorderly conduct.
Police also said seven juveniles under 18 years old were written up.
…i blame the philly fanatic, who as matt likes to say, can’t be trusted…
…hat tip to gene for the link…





Why is this on this site? It has nothing to do with baseball in any way and will only lead to really dumb comments about how lousy the people in Philly are. I am sure that at every game at Shea there are many many cases of underage drinking.
why on this site?….. because it brings a smile to my face
A better question would be why are you commenting on it? This site is very well set up for readers to skip the threads they are not interested in and focus on the threads they are.
good point.
People in philly are really dumb and lousy
yes, because NOOOOOOOOOOObody in New York gets busted for underage drinking/fake id’s
Underage drinkers in NY are smart enough to get away with it.
Hey, you need to be good and drunk to actually enjoy watching the Phils.
Philly fans are so obnoxious and retarded
When I was underage, I couldn’t have afforded to get drunk at Shea. Not if I was actually buying THEIR beer at TODAY’S prices anyway.
$48 bucks a six pack! OUCH!
so I see you don’t tip…
jk
LOL. I’m a good tipper. If I’m drinking that day, I do it before I get there. :)
I try to do it before I get there too. but beer at the park is irresistable…so cold…so beery…mmm, god I want one RIGHT NOW!
…sorry about that. ahem. LGM!
Agreed. The Pine is great before games. I like Bud Light and all, but prefer a Blue Moon or three to get me started.
Thats why when you are underage you get to the game early and pre-game it. Jeeez. :)
the Phanatic gets more mentions on this site than omar minaya.
Leave the kids alone…
Phire the Phanatic!
Fire Willie! Come by the Marina parking lot during Saturday home games and chill with the Fire Willie! Crew.
We’re in the process of buying a big white van/small bus, to be graphically enhanced with Fire Willie logos, you won’t be able to miss us pregamming at the Marina parking lot.
I’m all for people wanting a change. When you start spending money on it though… that’s just out of control.
Eh, we’re just going to buy a beater van, nothing more than $500, split 5 ways, will be well worth it and very entertaining. We’re not doing it solely for the fire willie movement, after Willie gets fired we’ll primer it up and repaint it with something else… “Thank You Omar?” Citi opening day it will read “2008 World Champions,” etc. etc.
Buy an ice cream truck. I’ll be your best customer. Use the profits to change the graphics around.
What about an ice cream / beer truck? Although it’d probably be pretty hard to attain a traveling liqour license.
You should have a mascot. The Fire Willie. A giant flaming willie.
What you should do is buy an old ambulance and call it “Party Emergency.” Show up and sell sixers when you get a Party Emergency call.
No wait, I’m going to do that.
Nothing wrong with a little drinking.
Well. what are the numbers at Shea? I’d imagine they’re around the same for a crowd of 40,000.
Next time the Mets are on the road and the Phillies are home, Mr. Met should go down there and blindside the Phanatic in his dressing room, throw on the costume, and raise hell all over CBP.
Mr. Met needs to get down there and do a modern day Enrico Pallazzo on their candy asses.
Isn’t it more newsworthy when a Philly fan doesn’t wind up in jail?
now that’s comedy
Wait, 91 minors on a Tuesday night? I know it’s summer and all, but don’t they have summer jobs? Shea doesn’t bring in 91 drinking minors on the weekends!!!
Drinking is just the beginning. One need only glance at the Philly Phanatic to see he’s basically designed to emulate only the harshest of psychodelic acid trips. Those kids will be jumping from the cheap seats thinking they can fly before long. I only hope they make peace with their pagan devil gods before they totally phreak out.
My good from friend college (who claims to be a HUGE Phillies fan) told me that he has never been to a Phils game sober in his entire life…
He also told me that the Mets stole “Ya Gotta Believe” from the phillies…apparently it was their logo during last year’s “miracle comeback”…
Has he ever heard of Tug McGraw? The pre-Phillies version?
Can I use his time machine, so I can go back to 1973 and use stuff from 2007? Didn’t Biff Tannen make alot of money this way?
Another well known quote came to be that very same season, referring to that very same topic:
It Ain’t Over Till It’s Over
-Mets Manager Yogi Berra, 1973
He also told me that the Mets stole “BOOOOOOOOOOO!” from the phillies.
Fixed!
Was this really their slogan? There are few if any slogans in sports more readily associated with a franchise than this one is with the Mets. That is utterly and completely pathetic.
If I am not mistaken, it was used by Tug McGraw in 1973 (Mets) and 1980 (Phillies).
Wait, only 91? They missed a bunch!
Hahahaha. I love hearing things like that. I’m sure it happens more than we know at other ballparks. Cracks me up because its at the bandbox, lol.
Who didn’t get busted by some sort of authority figure when they were underage?
Me! Don’t drink, don’t smoke. Has nothing to do with me.
You must be a blast at parties.
kids under 21 drink! shocking development! only in philadelphia!
no, but its nice to knock them on it.
the security and cops at shea just don’t arrest people. especially if they are beating the crap out of phillies fans. they just laugh and occasionally throw them out.
it’s a weak thing to make fun of them for. i’d rather stick to “the phillie phanatic is the mute, retarded child of gonzo and snuffleupagas.”
I’ve read that Citizens Bank Park is rarely filled with older, or middle aged Phillies fans. Majority of the crowd is young 18-25, it has become a hot spot to go for that group age. Plus they have some colleges around there (Villavova; Univ. of Philly etc), so I can see why.
Univ. of Penn, Drexel, Nova, Temple, St. Joes, La Salle, USP, Philly U …. big college town. I attribute that to why CBP is so vulgar - young and stupid 18-21 year-olds.
I got kicked out of Citizen’s Bank Park 3 years ago for sneaking in my own Natty Light cans. We lasted about an inning drinking them, then security gave us the boot.
That city SUCKS
Being a Phillie fan should be a felony.
