Daily News | Philly sports fans united against Boston during rare schedule overlap for Sixers and Phillies
“As satisfying as beating Boston,” the Snickers ad near I-95′s Broad Street exit proudly proclaimed. While relevant for any Philadelphia team, that message was a closer fit for 76ers and Phillies fans this weekend.
But there’s always a level of rivalry to any Boston vs. Philly matchup. Three Villanova students have gained a unique perspective on the relationship between the two cities. Mikos Carroll, Marianna Johnson and Jimmy Gamboli are all juniors at Villanova — and they’re all Celtics fans. Carroll pointed out that, in basketball, there’s history to the rivalry because they’re both original teams.
For almost as long as the students can remember, they’ve watched Boston come out with the edge in the rivalry. However, that’s started to change in recent years.
