Jill Biden was simply trying to raise cancer awareness and to root on her home team as she lead the fight song at a Philadelphia Eagles game.
The first lady was seen belting out the words to “Fly, Eagles Fly” alongside cancer patients and survivors on Sunday night, but the fan base did not want on her on the field. Fans of the only unbeaten team left in NFL reportedly booed Biden when she stepped onto Lincoln Financial Field.
According to the Philadelphia Inquirer, Biden was at the event to promote the White House’s Cancer Moonshot initiative. She was joined on the field by cancer patients and survivors as well as their families.
Despite the choruse of boos, Biden, who grew up in Willow Grove, Pa., called it a “special night for this Philly girl.”
