Reply to comment by dannygunz in Police had incident free night after Phillies won NL pennant by ColdJay64

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.
