Mike Scott's hard play and aggressive neck tattoos made him a cult hero in Philadelphia after being sent to Sixers midseason in the Tobias Harris deal.
But he pushed his luck in the City Brotherly Love by showing up to the Lincoln Financial Field tailgate for the Eagles game against Washington wearing all sorts Redskins gear.

Fists did fly.
Mike Scott went to an Eagles tailgate in a Redskins jersey and got into it with some Philly fans. ?

Also, the ass clowns who tried to throw hands w/@mikescott are the reason why we’ve got a bad rep. We’re not all like that, Mike. You know that.
Mike proved once again why he reminds me the OGs from 33rd and Diamond. Never seen someone more accessible and more Philly. pic.twitter.com/fRba6oincn
