Eagles fans heckle Cowboys fan Scottie Scheffler at PGA event

· Yahoo Sports

The Philadelphia Eagles continue proving their reach extends well beyond football fields, locker rooms, and Sunday broadcasts. One of the organization’s most recognizable personalities, chief security officer Dom DiSandro, helped voice ESPN’s opening for the 108th PGA Championship at Aronimink Golf Club.

That injected a little Philadelphia flavor into one of golf's premier events. For Eagles fans, hearing “Big Dom” featured prominently on a national broadcast felt like another reminder that this franchise's brand remains everywhere. Naturally, citizens of the City of Brotherly Love offered a little hometown cooking by doing what Eagles fans do.

Eagles fans never miss an opportunity

Once the tournament action began, Scottie Scheffler found himself receiving a uniquely Philadelphia greeting. He's a well-known Dallas Cowboys fan, and that gave an Eagles fan an opportunity he couldn't refuse or consider wasting.

Honestly, would anyone expect otherwise? Philadelphia sports fans have never exactly been known for quietly respecting enemy territory, even when the 'enemy' happens to be one of the best golfers on the planet instead of a rival quarterback standing behind center.

The moment felt especially fitting given the setting. This was not some neutral stop on the PGA Tour calendar. The PGA Championship returned to the Philadelphia area for the first time in decades, meaning local sports energy was always going to spill into the atmosphere.

Big Dom's appearance during ESPN's opening already established the Eagles' fingerprints on the event. The Scheffler moment simply confirmed what everyone probably should have expected. When Philadelphia sports fans gather in large numbers, football rivalries are never fully off the table. Golf may demand etiquette, but Eagles fandom occasionally has other ideas.
