The Philadelphia Phillies fans let U.S. President Joe Biden know their burn
2022 seems to be a great year for Philadelphia sports fans. Notably, the Phillies won the NL Pennants and played the World Series.
But apart from that, the NFL’s Philadelphia Eagles, the MLS’ Philadelphia Union, the NHL’s Philadelphia Flyers, and the NBA’s 76ers have been extremely good this year.
When talking about Joe Biden, he hurt the Phillies fans’ sentiments after putting up a tweet to congratulate the Astros.
Dear Phillies fans, it gets better… 🏆

Notably, when the 2022 regular season kicked off, almost no one predicted that the Phillies would come this far. But they defied all the odds and played the World Series this year.
