Boos, ice, and cheesesteak…
October 12, 2008
As might be expected in a town in which seemingly innocent, cheesesteak-eating folks routinely engage in blatant ‘gotcha‘ journalism, Sarah Palin was roundly booed last night during the Flyers’ opening night hockey match in which she dropped the ceremonial first puck. We all remember when Palin was viciously tricked two weeks ago in Philly, manipulated by said cheesteak eater/Temple student into contradicting the positions of her running mate (after all, chances are you don’t know the ins and outs of a looming war with Pakistan, so why should this hockey mom be expected to?). Now she’s derided in a city that professes brotherly – apparently not sisterly – love, doing nothing more than helping to kick off the NHL season. I, for one, will never again miss the chance to talk dirty on Philly.
