Ok, so Saturday I went and picked up Demon at KC airport and we went downtown along with hbionic and a friend of his who's a Chiefs fan to get some dinner and go do some drinking. So after dinner Phanatic meets up with us and we all go to this bar in the Westport section of town called Kelly's Irish Pub. I've been to this bar I don't know how many times but I saw something there last night that I've never seen before.
As soon as we walked in the door it was a sea of green and white. Some guy sitting right near the door said "Welcome to West Philadelphia!" as we walked in. Then hbionic's friend walked in wearing his Chiefs jacket and was given the "Ass-hole" treatment starting from the front door all the way to the back of the bar and then back to the front again. There were a few hundred people packed into this place and only about 3 Chiefs fans. We did the Eagles chant, the fight song and the TO song.
All the times that I've been in that bar on a Saturday night before a Chiefs home game I have never seen anything like that before. Simply amazing. :yay
Oh yeah, Christian Okoye came in the bar and I went up and talked with him for a few minutes. That is one big mo-fo. Dude still looks like he could run over people. Nice guy though. :yay
Okoye, best Tecmo Bowl player ever!! Did u get a pic with him Sarge? A pic thats not pornographic?
No, actually I didn't. :boom I was talking with some girl who made the trip out from Philly and took her down there to get a picture with him on her camera but I left mine in my coat. :boom :boom :boom
I told the girl to email me the pic though so I can photoshop myself into the picture.......which means I was drunk at the time because we all know I suck at teh fotoshop. :-\

Was it just me or did Reno Mahe actually contribute yesterday?

I'm disappointed in you.
It's Harper Le Bel by a mile.
The only thing I remember about the Nigerian Nightmare was a game KC played against Buffalo on MNF. Okoye bust through the line and Mark Kelso tried to get in his way. You could see from his body language he wasn't really into it, and for good reason. I don't think he hit the ground after the impact for a good 5-6yds.

He wore a "gazoo" helmet because his brain was squishy.

Not the best picture but trust me it was one big mutha of a helmet.

Hahahahahaha awesome find SD. :yay I am so going back to Kelly's tonight. :evil
I'm serious though, that place was absolutely unreal Saturday night. Mad props to all the Eagles fans who showed up at Kelly's and at the game. We were drunk, loud and obnoxious. It was beautiful.
During the game me and bionic were really pissing the Chiefs fans off in our section because we stole their chants. It was indeed a glorious day. ;D

That's crap. Check these quotes on he subject from Google.
QuoteTop Ten Tecmo Super Bowl Players
1. QB Eagles
Passing skills plus one of the best running backs in the game. You can't stop him, you can only hope to contain him.
QuoteThe answer: Death on Two Legs; The question: QB Eagles in excellent condition.
QuoteQB Eagles, a.k.a. Randall Cunningham broke Tecmo Super Bowl. As good as Bo, Barry and LT were, QB Eagles was better. He was Mike Vick in a game, which exploited his skills. QBs with half as much speed as him, dominated when they should not have. Anyone remember Mike Pagel, the backup to, ironically, QB Browns? He was a scrub who was good because he could run slightly faster than your average QB. Vinny Testaverde and Rodney Peete could carry a team on their legs alone. Now imagine a player with twice their speed. That's QB Eagles. His altered name made for a good cult hero too. He was just amazing.
QuotePersonally I'd take QB Eagles, as no one I've ever played against, these three included, has been able to stop my devastating run/pass threat.
QuoteTecmo Super Bowl had a lot of great players. But none of them were greater than QB Eagles.
QB Eagles was the most versatile player in the history of the Tecmo NFL. He could throw the ball from the back of one endzone to the other and hit his receiver in stride. He could roll out of the pocket and, while on the run, throw a short, hard pass across his body with perfect accuracy to his tight end over the middle. He could do the play action so convincingly that the player he faked the handoff to would get gang-tackled. And when things got bad, he could tuck the ball under his arm and run better than most of the league's running backs.
Although he could pull a pretty effective planned QB sneak, QB Eagles was at his most effective when he would call a passing play, drop back into the pocket, and then take off downfield. The defenses of that time were fairly primitive, and defensive backs would often keep covering their receivers until QB Eagles had run right past them. He generally went unchallenged for at least 10 yards, and with QB Eagles' running abilities, he could easily dodge a few tackles and stretch that gain to at least 30 yards -- if they ever caught him at all. Every so often, defenses would see him rolling out, and immediately everyone would zero in on him, forgetting their coverage and leaving QB Eagles with a nice selection of wide open receivers, which he could almost always get the ball to, even under the intense pressure. That is, if he decided to throw the ball, and didn't just beat all 11 defenders for another long run.
QB Eagles may not have had the running power of Christian Okoye, and he would never have as many 80+ yard touchdown runs as Barry Sanders. But he was still a dangerous runner and had a distinct advantage with the element of surprise. While Thurman Thomas or Emmitt Smith would have to fight for every yard, QB Eagles usually had gotten a first down before the defense even realized he was running. And if they were ready for him to run, he could always throw it. Bo Jackson might have been able to play two sports, but even he could never play quarterback and running back simultaneously the way QB Eagles did.
QB Eagles had all the abilities of a top 5 quarterback combined with the skills of an elite running back. Few defenses could stop one of those two things, and none had an answer for the man who was both. He shredded opponents every week and set records as both a rusher and a passer that may never be broken. QB Eagles is, without a doubt, the best player in Tecmo Super Bowl.

CLASSIC!!!!!! hahahahahahhaha
What a freaking game. Had a great time at the bar the night before. Eagle fans every where. There was one Dallas fan that tried to talk smack to us at one point. He was quickly put in is place (a corner in hell). Believe it or not Hbionic acted like a hetero and started chatting up some ladies that evening. Sarge got a rather cute lady from Philly to flash us for some beads or some shtein. We chanted icehole at the few Chiefs fans that entered the bar, sang the fight song, did shots, danced, sang, pretty much got shtein faced and closed the bar down. HBionic's Chief fan buddy took off his colors. Shameful!!
The tailgate started a little slow as we were all still shaking off the night before, but we picked it up before going into Arrow Head. Singing and chanting all the way into the stadium. Getting dirty looks and a few cat calls but no one in red stood up for themselves. Demon and I split with the crew and went down to our seats.
A friend of mine (a Chiefs fan) came down to our seats and took our picture with the 0-0 scoreboard in the background. I think he anticipated us losing and thought to get before and after shots.... Didn't see him at all after that.
So the game gets going and it was freaking LOUD!! Demon and I are sitting 8th row behind the Eagles bench at about the 20 yard line. GREAT freaking seats, but there wasn't a ton of EAGLE Brothers around. A few though. There was a Vikings and Bears fan rooting for the Eagles for some reason. I think they just hated the Chiefs. Whatever. We had some support at least.
That first quarter was hell down there though. The whole "we're going to kick the hell out of you... you you you" thing was kicking and some rather chatty fans were nicely patronizing us. "It's a long football game, they could come back, insert senseless patronizing horse shtein here". Demon and I did our best to hang in there and cheer the team on when we thought they could hear us. It was a pretty bad quarter of bumbles and fumbles though.
Finally the Eagles showed some signs of life on D and there was that special teams fumble. More patronizing. God I can't stand these pretentious passive aggressive bitches!!
As the game goes on the Eagles were making a game of things and the crowd that was deafening every time we were on offense started get quiet. 24 – 24 hell yeah. I turned to our "buddies" and laid on the patronizing horse shtein pretty thick!! Take that fargers!
Then the Eagles go up by one touchdown and the fans start leaving. I got hit in the back with a few empty plastic bottles. Nothing that hurt so I just faced forward and did my thing when the Eagles made a play. Up by 10 and there's not much going on. Demon and I are screaming our farging heads off. Before a few Eagles kick offs, Hood was giving a thumbs up to fans in the crowd and shaking his head in approval of the noise we were making.
At one point Demon and I started a TO chant and TO put his hand up to his ear. Eagles pulled out the win and the fans in the stands showed Chiefs fans how to be.
To their credit the chatty fans behind us stayed the whole game, but they were pretty sulky. I'll give them props for staying the whole game, hanging in there, and putting up with my shtein. They turned out to be pretty knowledgeable football guys so we kept it real in the end. One of them sighed and said that the Eagles are the NFC champs for a reason.
Great time this year!!
You know, we've had this whole thread going, and no one has yet mentioned how much Sarge helped us out.
You know... Sarge. Sarge that lived in KC for years and years. Sarge that knows KC like the back of his hand.
Well Sarge, hbionic, and hbionic's boy toy pick me up at the airport, and we eventually make our way to down town Kansas City, Missouri for some dinner. Sarge is driving around, and around and around, and we're starting to think something is up. Then, in the middle of the barrio, Sarge says "Oh, I think I know where we are."
Soon after that, we pass a sign on the highway -- "Welcome To Missouri"
That's right. Sergeant Head-Up-His-Ass has taken us to FREAKING KANSAS by mistake! Not only did he not get us to a restaurant, HE MISSED THE WHOLE STATE!!!
Thank's for the ride, Pyle....
;)
:-D I knew one of you fargtards would bring that up. Obviously I was just trying to give you guys a tour of the area. :paranoid
But I still managed to give Phanatic dead on directions on where to meet us. Too bad he didn't get into town until the monsoon hit and had to sit in the parking lot for a few minutes.
Long time lurker - 1st time poster here...
I am from Bucks County, but now live in Hawaii. My little brother, Rodger, still lives in Bucks. My brother scores great tickets with regularity because of the guys he works for/with. They always keep me in mind... I made it home for Week 2 and the Championship game last year.
This year we decided to hook up for a road trip to Kansas City. Rodger brought two of his crazy ass friends, and I came with a colleague originally from Kansas City. He was our "token" Chiefs fan.
I flew all night Friday and landed Saturday and because I was so friggin tired, I volunteered to be the DD. We went out to Harrah's where I promptly blew a grand on Craps and Roulette table. The others got smashed at the bar... and the Philly obnoxiousness flowed. I think they may have actually converted a few KC fans. We didn't get back to the Hotel until after 4:00 AM. I don't know how we made it back... I was exhausted, it was an hour away and I have never seen lightening like that before.
Around noon on Sunday we finally got rolling to the stadium. Our KC native, Token, wanted to take us to some world-renowned BBQ place, which I was down for. My brother and friends wanted Denny's. There is apparently something in the pancakes that make you feel better after boozing until 4:00 AM. I can't believe we didn't get some famous BBQ.
We got some nosebleed tickets on EBAY, but they were on the 40-yard line, which was not bad. The stadium was nice and LOUD. Kansas City chants are a bit different than the typical Eagles chants (i.e., ARSEHOLE... ARSEHOLE... ARSEHOLE). The first time the entire stadium said "1ST DOWN!!" was unique. The novelty wore off when they seemed to be doing it every play in the 1st Quarter. We were getting obliterated. I am an optimistic guy, and felt a breath of life when Sheldon Brown took that INT to the house, but I said "game over" to Rodger when Dante Hall broke off the 96-yard TD the very next play. I was thinking about the LONG walk back to the car and how much Token was going to be unbearable at work. The Eagles were brutal in the 1st half.
The second half was a bit more fun... Token started getting quiet. When McNabb threw the TD to LJ to make it 34 to 24 the sea of red parted. I have never seen a stadium clear like that. There was still a ton of time left in the game, too. I have never seen a momentum switch that drastic in a game... ever. The KC Fans that were in our section (325) handled the loss with class. We didn't get hit with anything from above, which I figured was a certainty. After the clock hit 0:00, we made our way back to the car, and there were a ton of Eagles fans milling around talking smack, chanting, etc. One quote that stuck with me was from a decent looking blonde with her man a few rows above us. She asked incredulously, "Why are there SO MANY Eagles fans here?" She went on to say that she has never seen anything like it. There had to be 5,000 Eagles fans there... My little moment of pride~
We had a great time, and decided that we are going to Dallas next year. I suspect that the Cowboy fans will not be as passive as the KC fans were.
Rob
Welcome to the board, meskerd. Try to look up Don Ho, he's in your neck of the woods.
Glad you had a good time in KC. If you saw two Eagles fans that were COMPLETE idiots, that was just Sarge and Hbionic.
