Oh hell, now SNL will refer to her as the “ICE QUEEN”. LOL
She wore her adorable trench.
Just got done watching this. Nice crowd but a few low lifes booed her. Don’t expect much from those people.
It’s Philly. They boo Santa Claus over there.
She was in Philadelphia. They’ve booed Santa Claus there.
Thank you so much, Sarah and her beautiful Daughters looked great..
she’s a great dresser, but as any woman knows, when you have those cute little petite figures, you look good in everything.....

I hope the reception wasn’t chilly. I’m not encouraged by multiple Obama-Biden signs in the pic.

Ha! You’re talking about the city (Philly) that once booed Santa Claus at the Phillies game. They are notoriously known for their negative sports fans against their own teams.
God bless you, Sarah. You are one brave woman! You do us all proud.
see my post #13
Now i understand...I guess i know who he will vote for....
Even AP said there were a few boos, but mainly it started to a complete cheering and politeness..
In honor of an American hockey mom. :) =^..^=
Its ok, Flyers won’t win a Stanley cup this year...hahahahaha
“A few low lifes booed her”. These are probably the same fans that threw snow balls at Santa Clause. What else do you expect in Philadelphia? Three cheers for Sarah.....
Sarah Palin is brave.. Braveheart!
There are only two I see. Dumb white people...LOL.
Yep...first thing that stood out...Obama signs in the back.
check this out:
The Alaska governor heard a few boos when she walked onto the ice Saturday night. But that soon turned to polite applause as she walked out to center ice with Mike Richards of the Flyers and Scott Gomez from Alaska of the Rangers.

They are having an interview with Sarah on now at game intermission.
“Ha! Youre talking about the city (Philly) that once booed Santa Claus at the Phillies game. They are notoriously known for their negative sports fans against their own teams.”
That was the Vikings-Eagles game in ‘68.
Santa Claus was actually an Eagles fan from the stadium, because Santa was a no show.
The Vikings would have never made it to the stadium in time for the game if it wasn’t for my frat brother who told the stupid bus driver where Franklin Field was.
Bud Grant (Vikings loser coach) had a habit of showing up late.
I can’t hear the BOOOS.
Actually Scott Gomez is Alaskan, as is Brandon Dubinsky. Both hail from Anchorage.
And my frat brother was an XXXXskins fan.

Anyone else remember Tie Domi beating the sh*t out of an inebriated Flyers fan in the penalty box? That, and Felix Potvin busting open Ron Hextall’s forehead while feeding him haymakers, are the proudest moments in Leafs Nation history since May 2, 1967.


Philadelphia is really a toilet of a city. I think it lost its lustre fifty years ago.
Speaking of clothes, the Flyers should trash the black jerseys. The orange you-nees were way better.
Nobody's going to win it this year that hasn't already won it.
As a forever NJ (yeah, that’s right) Giants fan, it’s always been known that “The City of Brotherly Love” is the worst place to be during a football game. They beat up their fellow Eagles fans, pommel Santa with snowballs and boos, they cheer when a player is injured on the opposing team and often heckle their own cheerleaders. They’re just in a class all by themselves.
Palin for President :-)
It needs Frank Rizzo back. Instead, it elected freakin John Street TWICE.
You think that's bad: I was driving through a very bad, and very black section of Philly about a month ago, and noticed a big Obama sign--with a van dyke and mustache plastered on the Messiah's face. No one seemed to care.
Yikes. That was brave of her. What a Socialist hell-hole that place is.
Gomez is an Alaskan as well.
Youtube changed the title of this now to “Sarah Palin boo’d at hockey game”
Only liberal reactions count now.
Perhaps if Sarah Palin had been in goal tonight for the flyers they might not be losing 4-0. God is righteous.
