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 Democrats can’t even come up with a decent slogan.
No wonder they don’t know which bathroom to use.
Obama taught them confusion.
No surprise. Since his real father is the author of confusion.
Satan is the author of confusion.
what does BUILD BACK BETTER?”

Read somewhere (maybe here) that Joe stole that slogan from a European politician...
Believe it or not, that will lose Biden some votes. I recall John Kerry getting razzed as he stood at the ordering window at Pat’s Steaks and attempted to order ‘provolone’ on his steak sandwich. Pro tip for visiting politicians: if you know nothing about the local foods, just order the ‘basics’ or you will embarrass yourself. And Hillary... leave a tip.
Just checked every Philly TV station....
None have the story on their website.
Joe Biden confuses Philadelphia Eagles logo with his college emblem
“The real Biden rallies are the Antifa riots.”
I never thought of it that way, but you’re right!! PDJT should be using that line all day today, at all five rallies. Make that even stronger connection between Biden and violence.
Trump: “Under Sleepy Joe Biden, the economy will soar like a chicken. No, it’s true!”
“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.”
Trump doesn’t. Just sayin....
He should have called a lid day.
True, good comparison in fact.
Was it Hillary or Obama who got the Chicago baseball teams and stadiums mixed up?
Tucker and mark steins banter back and forth last night on joes obamacare slurry was hilarious
His dressing valet must have mixed up the clothes Jill laid out.
Oh, that was his Delaware State jacket?
A few years ago he declared that he was a Redskins fan. I remember commenting on how odd that was as his house was only a short drive to the Eagles stadium.
I would but this is just more pandering. Similar to when Hillary was running for Senate in NY, when she claimed she was a life long Yankee’s fan, even though she grew up in Chicago and every thinking person knew she knew nothing about sports.
