This part of the off-season can be a bit of a tease for baseball fans across the country. After all, you will spend a countless number of days counting down until Opening Day or listening to ball scribes tell you that Spring Training is “right around the corner.”
Well, you can keep telling yourself that, but pitchers and catchers won’t be heading to Florida or Arizona any faster if you do. Sure, that date may be just a couple of weeks away, but at the end of January, with snow and ice on the ground and nothing better to do, it still feels like Spring Training is light years away.
How about a better way to occupy your time?
The Internet is a marvelous thing, but I’ll spare you the lengthy, colorful explanation as to why and get right down to the most simple fact: It’s entertaining.
So as I sat in my chair, hot cop of coffee in hand and watching the snow fall to the ground, I longed for Spring Training. I took to the Internet to try and remind myself that Clearwater, Florida was “right around the corner” for the Phillies, but instead, stumbled upon something much more entertaining than crossing days off of the calendar: Fan videos.
Now that the Phillies are once again a team that contends year in and year out, the fan base is the life force behind this franchise, and boy, are you guys entertaining. In this slideshow, I’ve assembled a host of videos either about, filmed by, or including the fans.
You’ll laugh, you’ll cry… Okay, you probably won’t cry unless you’re overly emotional, but I promise that you’ll find some of these excellent fan videos, some humorous, some inspiring, certainly entertaining.
