Theres a little more to it then that
The Eagles had been awful for most of that decade,after the more or less dismantlement of their championship team
All that seasons the fans only hope was that theyd finish with the worst record in the league and be able to take OJ Simpson,who everybody knew was going at 1
But somehow the week before the bums managed to win a game,assuring the Buffalo Bills of the #1 and OJ
Now on top of it,it was a miserable day at Franklin Field,and almost all of the fans that were there were there for a Christmas Pagent theyd been promised by the team.By half time managment decided the field was too mucked up to be able to get the float out there.So they grabbed some 19 year old kid,put him in a seriously ratty Santa Suit,and tossed him out on the field
Thats when the booing started

Even so, thats probably the toughest city to be a pro athlete/team in.

I dont know,a couple of years ago they were throwing batteries in Denver,and theres allways the media glare of playing in NYC
Tell you one thing though,you win in that town youll never have to pay for your own meal again,people there still want to petition to get Rose in to the HOF
