Any Phillies fans here?

While reading a SI interview with Phillies ace Cole Hammels, he talked about how his hardcore fans call themselves the "Cole Miners", and dress up appropriatley and wave fake pick axes when he gets a strike out. I've seen other groups like this at Phillies games: Howards Homers (Dudes in Homer Simpson masks) Chases Chicks, Utleys Uglies, and I've seen a few super heros supporting Tom "Flash" Gordon. But in this interview Hammels says alot of NINJA TURLTES show up at the games to fit the Flash Gordon/super hero thing.

I've never been to a Phillies game, but if I do I know what I'm dressing up as! Any one ever seen this themself?

I am!!!! I'm a huge Philadelphia Phillies fan! I've only missed 2 out of the 100+ games they've played this season, but I haven't seen anyone dressed up as a Ninja Turtle thusfar. Maybe Cole Hamels notices it when it happens because he's only 23 years old and probably grew up watching the series just like we did.

Hey, cool to see a fellow baseball fan here. Anyways, mabey they have their own little section, if I ever make it out to a Phils game I'm gonna run around the stadium between innings singing the theme song to draw the proper attention to myself

PM me sometime if you ever wanna talk baseball with someone.
