I was in St. Thomas, Virgin Islands when the Eagles smoked the Vikings during their 2004 run to the SB. Went to a place called Molly Malone’s, which was owned by people from Philly. They apparently had Amoroso rolls frozen and shipped in weekly. They had a 10-foot replica Wawa hoagie hanging from the ceiling.

Anyway, they were huge Eagles fans as well. At one point a family came in, sat down, and noted that they were Vikings fans. The owner immediately came over, and politely told them that tables close to the big screen TV were reserved for Eagles fans only, and they were banished to the back corner of the bar.

good luck and best wishes!

And I’m impressed you brought Eagles mugs with you. Nice work.

… I used to work at a small little newspaper, and they’d publish your picture if you took the paper with you anywhere in the world. So the tiny little paper went to the Taj Mahal and the top of Mount Everest and the Great Wall and all that jazz.

The Jamaica story (very cool that the locals got on board BTW) could be the beginning of something similar. (or it could just be your thread and that’s the end of it) … It would definitely be cool to hear stories and see pictures of the places in the world people have been with their Eagles stuff or the great lengths they’d go to catch games.

I definitely think the fact there were 10 other Birds fans watching the game with you in a bar in Jamaica proves we’re a special breed. Nice.

For the Xmas game against Dallas a couple years ago I was in the D.R. We got there and they didn’t have Fox, but they managed to get it for us by request for one night. The bar had about 15 die-hard Eagles fans and one lame Cowgirls fan. The place was loud and the fight song was sang the entire night. The staff didn’t know anything about football and were incredibly amused by the passion we showed to the “American game”

LOL…I was on my honeymoon in Jamaica (Sandals Dunn’s River) in 2001 when the Eagles beat the Giants to clinch the NFC East, and I did have to watch it via sportsticker – our resort didn’t get FOX at the time.

I went to dinner during the game, because it was driving me crazy to “watch” like that, and when I learned the Eagles won I screamed E-A-G-L-E-S off the balcony.

We went back for our 5-year anniversary in 2006, arriving at Sandals two days after the Eagles had beaten the Cowboys on Christmas. We were walking around the resort to see how things had changed from our previous time there, when I was accosted by a whole party of Eagles fans who told me how they had basically taken over the resort and made the Jamaicans adjust the satellite dish so they could watch the game.

(This time the resort got Fox, so I was able to watch part of the meaningless Atlanta game after drinking on the beach all morning)

I went to Alaska for a week last May. I was wearing an Eagles cap in the small town of Seward and I got a nice Go Eagles. It was fantastic!
