Philly area DISers :)

[Coach K]

Central Bucks County here. Always wear Philly gear when in the World. Was down there once and saw a CM's name tag and it had my home town listed! Found out she used to live only a mile from me!!! Saw another who was a boat captain from Berks County and his daughter was coached by one of the kids I coached when I coached on the college level!!! So cool!

 

[shinysparklybubbles]

I don't live in Philly but about 20 mins away ! Did you all know the Cherry Hill Disney store is opening 11/2 ?!?!?

 

[omghidanielle]

We thought the same thing when we were in WDW in Sept! Very funny & awesome!

(PS we are residents of the Frankford & Cottman area haha)

 

[Fly4free]

Another Phillies and big Flyers fan here!! I work in Philly. Will have to remember to pack DS his Phillies shirts next trip to DW. We were there in April.

Go Phillies!!

 

[marcyinPA]

We're from the Lehigh Valley, but close enough! My DS's always wear their Phillies stuff EVERYWHERE, including WDW. One trip older DS wore his Iron Pigs cap, and younger DS wore his R-Phils cap, and people stopped us to chat!

 

[Coach K]

Iron Pigs all the way! My nephew works as the Pig at the home games and for special appearances.

Somewhere I have a card to get a free pin from the Disney Store in Cherry Hill when it opens. I had forgotten about that.
DH wears his Flyer's hat/shirt and he won't wear the shirts that I DISign. Going the first week of December, can't wait. Penny

 

[onelilspark]

I grew up in the Philly area (Montgomery County.) Diehard Eagles fan and I wear my Eagles gear every game day!!

We were there the year we played the Pats in the Super Bowl. Eagles fans definitely outweighed Pats fans in WDW! We ate at Tepan Edo (or whatever the older name was) and were seated with a family from Mass...out of all the people

 

[chellewashere]

Philly suburb here. Our first trip - August last year - we saw so much Phillies and Eagles stuff. My husband owns nothing but so he wore his daily. He is an intorvert and hated the fact that so many people stopped to talk to him about baseball or football
But I was looking around and I have to say that Philly fan gear seriously outweighed all other teams that I saw.

 

[Gette88]

We were there the same week and couldn't get over all the Phillies shirts we saw. They couldn't be missed. We thought it was cool. My 20 year old DD was wearing an Utley shirt one day.

"Oh somewhere men are laughing, and somewhere children shout. But there is no joy in Philly, mighty Howard has struck out."

Go Giants!

 

[Debi]

Another Eagles fan checking in from South Jersey! I'm not a big fan of other sports, but I always wear my Eagles clothing when in WDW.

 

[BubblPopElectrc]

Philly here!

That was just mean. Funny... but mean. LOL.

 

[Mrs. Charming]

Lived in Philly for years, but Chester County checking in here! We're probably as west as you can get and still be a suburb! We actually ran into a family on the bus that was from our town, it was pretty cool.

It's amazing how many people from this area are at WDW at any given time!

 

[shinysparklybubbles]

On the november trip thread I found someone who lives the town next to me and her and I have the same trip dates!

 

[TeresaNJ]

South Jersey Philly sports fan here! My nephew even forfeited going to dinner with the family at LeCellier this past May while we were all in WDW, so he wouldn't miss the Flyers play-off game that evening. He ate at the ESPN Club at Disney's Boardwalk, while we continued on our way to eat at Le Cellier. A very nice family saw him in his Flyers jersey standing in line, & invited him to sit with them at their table, and even insisted on paying for his meal, while they watched the Flyers game together.

 

[Kim&Chris]

We returned from the World on 10/15, and were happy to see lots & lots of Phillies & Eagles shirts.

We met a few CM's at Old Key West who are from this area also!

 

[DAISY DUCK FAN!]

South Jersey Family here.

All of us are huge (albeit disappointed) Phillies Fans!

My DH and all three sons love the Eagles.

Personally, I prefer the Indianapolis Colts

We wear our team jerseys & hats when we visit WDW.

And the ESPN Club is required dining
