As the Bruins and Flyers battle on the ice in yet another Eastern Conference semifinal series, another battle will be going on behind the scenes between the two fan bases.
The city of Boston is known worldwide for its devotion to all four teams that represent New England, but Philadelphia ranks right alongside Beantown in terms of passionate fans.
The rivalry between these two teams runs deep, but the most recent postseason battle (a seven-game series win for the Flyers in 2010 after a 3-0 series lead for the Bruins) is still fresh on the minds of both cities, and while Philadelphia will be looking for a repeat, Boston will be looking for redemption.
It was only a matter of time before these two teams clashed in the postseason again, and with the B’s and the Flyers squaring off in the second-round series, we want to see fans facing off against one another as well.
Send us your favorite photos and videos that show your fandom and allegiance to the Bruins or Flyers. Prove why your team, city and fan base is the best. Be creative. We’ll select the top submissions and post them on NESN.com throughout the upcoming series between Boston and Philadelphia.
