The Philadelphia Phillies winning of the World Series last year has bestowed many benefits upon the Delaware Valley. Decades of disappointment were wiped away in Game 5 by Chase Utley’s sensational throw home to nail the potential tying run. The psyche of the Phillies fan has been eternally transformed from languishing loser to confident champion. This stunning change has been incredible.
Nowhere is that attitude adjustment more apparent than in the parking lots around Citizen’s Bank Park where the summertime tailgating is now all the rage.
