Joe Biden's attempt to resonate with a rally crowd in Philadelphia fell flat when he claimed he was wearing Eagles football gear - but his jacket actually bore the logo of his alma mater, the Delaware Blue Hens.
The Democratic presidential nominee made the gaffe during one of two rainy campaign stops he made in the City of Brotherly Love on Sunday.
'I know Philadelphia well. I married a Philly girl, by the way,' Biden told the crowd who had gathered in their cars outside the Sharon Baptist Church. 'And by the way, I've got my Eagles jacket on.'
Eagle-eyed Twitter users were quick to notice that Biden had mixed up his birds, as his jacket actually showed a Blue Hen from University of Delaware, where he earned a degree in history and political science in 1965.
Among those highlighting the mix-up was Zach Parkinson, the deputy director of communications for President Donald Trump's campaign, who wrote on Twitter: 'This 'Eagles' jacket Biden claims he's wearing to try and show how much he's in touch with Pennsylvania? It's a Delaware Blue Hens jacket.'

The Blue Hens beat the Cowboys.
Now I get some things I saw earlier.
Joe Biden is stupid and so are his supporters
The guy has been having “senior moments” his entire life. Except, they aren’t senior moments, the guy is just a lying a$$hole.
Cant tell a chicken from an eagle.
Now THIS will lose him votes.
I’m laughing at Uncle Joe same as any other conservative, but I give him a pass on this one. Both candidates are probably worn down to the nub, and will get names or cities or sports teams or famous landmarks mixed up here and there.
Joe is probably in need of another power nap.
Dairy farmers’ $hitspreaders could take a lesson from this jerk
he just insulted every single Eagles fan in Philadelphia, which is about 99.99999% of the population.
he is done
cardinal sin of philly is insulting the eagles. he is done
Wish he’d go to Pittsburgh and do the same thing with the Steelers.
To me, this is simply sad. Joe Biden has always been a gaff machine, but now he is also fighting old age. I’m not opposed to older folks running the country, of course, but it takes exceptional vigor to properly act on our behalf as president. I should also add that I’m far from being a spring chicken myself, and I freely admit I’m not physically or mentally as sharp as I once was. The difference? I’m not running for President and leader of the free world.
This election should be a landslide for Trump, including him winning California and New York. The only reason why he’s not much further ahead is the dishonest, warped fake news. Trump is for the people, us common folk. Biden, on the other hand, is a party hack who is well past his Best Buy date. He was drug into this by party insiders who knew Bernie could never win, and winning is all that matters to the Democrat elites and their special interest backers.
How many people showed up at the Biden rallies? Didn’t look anywhere near the huge crowds showing up for Trump.
What a farce.
I mean if you are going to pander get it right at least.
Thank you! Biden has been scum since his first day in office.
His dementia is giving feelies to people but he’s still a nasty, unamerican, traitor who sold this Country out.
I felt sorry for him at first...then I remembered what a scum he was when he was coherent. His dementia is just a cover now for his total assholishness.
No. Longer. Care.
Among those highlighting the mix-up was Zach Parkinson, the deputy director of communications for President Donald Trump's campaign...
Parkinson? Not Alzheimer?
Come-On Man!
I just turned the Blue Hens vs. Cowboys on the DVR.
The Football Team actually played you guys pretty well last week.
