One cool Philly fan.

[livejournal.com profile] netquiddler defies the stereotype of the boorish Philadelphia sports fan. When the NLCS was tied at one, we made a bet on the outcome. I put up a bottle of good California wine (I have a nice 2007 Napa Cabernet Sauvignon that I was going to part with) and he put up a real Philly cheesesteak. Well, we won. Within minutes of the game ending, [livejournal.com profile] netquiddler called us to congratulate us on the win, and arrange the details of settling the bet. I handed that off to Kiri, as we tend to have things shipped to her office for ease of signing.

Baseball rivalries and post-season series are a lot more fun when everyone remembers that it's a game. I can have fun at a game with Dodgers fans as long as we all keep perspective.

Will, do you want me to reveal which box you're sending us?

Edit We're getting the Philly Cheesesteak Package, #2 on that page.

I watched that game, cheering for my Phillies and when they lost, I thought of you. Heh. Good luck in the series.
