PHILADELPHIA, PA — In one of the most memorable sports-radio moments this season, a Philadelphia police officer known only as “Peter” called into the midday show on 94 WIP, angrily calling out his disdain for the Dallas Cowboys—while pulling over a driver live on air.
“I Have Never Hated Anything More Than the Cowboys” — And He’s Pulled Over Someone Mid-Rant
