“Everywhere you look, it’s Phillies fans. It kind of feels like we’re taking over the city a little bit.”
LONDON — There aren’t many scenarios where you’d want your brother, your dad, and your husband’s college roommates to join you on your honeymoon.My husband and I picked London for the start of our European honeymoon after learning the Phillies would play the Mets there over two days in June. It wasn’t long before fellow fanatics among family and friends had a similar plan to catch the tail end of the honeymoon start to the season.
“Everywhere you look, it’s Phillies fans. It kind of feels like we’re taking over the city a little bit,” said Brian Wick, 27, of, who came over with his dad, Matthew, to see the games. The two first shared a Phillies game when Brian was in diapers at the Vet. Phillies fans packed onto the Tube, the Phanatic confused and delighted tourists as he marched around Buckingham Palace dressed as a Beefeater.posed for selfies with passersby, and coaches and former players drank PBRs at the Passyunk Ave Phillies bar in Waterloo.
The Phillies are coming ‘to my jawn.’ And this U.K. superfan is welcoming all with help from Chase Utley. “I feel like I’m back in Philadelphia because everywhere I turn everyone’s got the same accent I do,” said Colleen Hogan, a former Philadelphia resident now living in Clearwater, Fla.
