The Philadelphia Phillies are a Major League baseball team based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The Phillies did in 2008 what the Mets and the Yanks could not do that year: win a World Series. The event triggered an enormous citywide riot in which cars were overturned, impromptu ritualistic bonfires were lit, and men were sniped off traffic lights with whiskey bottles. The response was so strong because Philly fans are unable to handle victory; the Phillies are the losingest MLB team in history, having lost their 10,000th game on 15 July, 2007.
