10.31.08 OH, PHILADELPHIA. DON’T EVER CHANGE.
There’s no shortage of photos and videos documenting the bedlam that followed the Phillies’ World Series victory, and while no single act of violence can top the sound of an airborne vodka bottle crashing off a man’s head, the crazy mob that looted this store definitely takes the cake for Best Performance in a Riot (Ensemble). From The Fightins:
The popular Broad St. luggage joint, Robinson’s, became the unlikely target of a pack of riotous hoodlums [Wednesday] night after the Phillies World Series victory. The delinquents converged on the baggage company’s store, kicked in the glass doors, and had free reign in the shop — tossing everything they could get their hands on out the door and into the awaiting arms those standing outside. Most of the stolen goods wound up either being destroyed or set on fire in the middle of Broad St.
That’s horrible… I only approve of wanton destruction of stolen goods if it’s the Levi’s store. C’mon everybody! DON’T YOU HATE PANTS!?!?!?

Nice to see Tatum Bell is keeping busy these days.
I remember in 2002, when the Angels won, we all went to Disneyland and sang “It’s a Small World” like, REALLY loud.
So we’re not so different after all, Philadelphia.
/welcome to the OC, bitch!
Nice to see blacks and whites working together.
They needed the luggage for their annual vacations to the Jersey Shore.
Get me a bag, get me a bag!
Get away from the cans! He hates these cans!
I’m really disappointed that none of these fans yelled out “You’re with me, Leather” when they picked up a suitcase.
get me a bag!! get me a bag!!

Baggage? We don’t need no stinking baggage.
Why was Ryan Howard yelling to burn the fucking city down?
Yeah, those Philly cops are pussies, Boston cops would have killed somebody.
