Philly broadcaster busted for making a run at stadium food service worker

No first-hand knowledge of Howard, and not to be all cancel-culturey, but how in the world do you do something like this and not be fired? At the stadium with a press pass means you are representing the station, and you try and stick your tongue down the throat of a hot dog girl? Being barred from the stadium for the rest of the year is pretty close to a nothing punishment.

And how in the world do you do something like this in the first place?

Feels like Costanza with the cleaning lady.

Howard Eskin is a world-class shithead. This doesn’t surprise me at all.

His whole career was built on basically being a smarmier version of Skip Bayless. And he got infinitely worse when he started believing his own hype, which was probably 30 years ago at this point.

I vaguely recall one time when he sent a female listener a bouquet of flowers, and her husband killed her when he found it. Can’t remember the rest of the details, but I know he talked about it on-air once or twice.

 

President of the Howard Eskin Fan Club.

 

This whole industry has been a vehicle for this guy's narcissism. He's been drafting off of breaking the news that Leonard Tose was trying to move the Eagles to Arizona for 40 years.

 

He was also a Morning Zoo pioneer!

 

If you can picture a 700-Level Eagles season ticket holder who stumbled into fame and a bit of money, you're picturing Howard Eskin. If you can picture a Philles fan throwing a D-cell battery at J.D. Drew, you're picturing Howard Eskin. If you can picture a 76ers fan who thinks Allen Iverson was the embodiment of a stereotype and wholly worthless as a basketball player, you're picturing Howard Eskin. If you can picture a Flyers fan who is pissed off that there aren't four fights per game anymore, you're picturing Howard Eskin.

If you can picture a drunk Philly fan pissing in the men's room sink at halftime while whining about how his team is being robbed of a win, you're picturing Howard Eskin.

He's a totem of everything a Philly fan is, and he made himself famous playing the part as only he can.

Which is to say, he's a disgusting piece of crap.

 

It is frowned upon.

 

He is a caricature of everything non-Philadelphians think we are.

 

Then again, don't Philadelphians caricature everyone else in their state as "the mud people"?

 

That’s not a caricature. And it’s not “everyone else.”

 

Just to reiterate, Howard Eskin is a piece of human excrement.

 

Was surly and short-tempered on his radio show.
