LA Angels outfielder Mike Trout attended the Buffalo Bills vs. Philadelphia Eagles game at Lincoln Field on Sunday. Trout is known to be an Eagles fan and often attends their games. The Eagles won 37-34 in overtime, extending their season record to 10-1.
The NFL matchup was rain-affected, but that didn't affect the former MVP, who enjoyed the Eagles' narrow victory. In a short video shared by the Talkin' Yanks on Twitter, Trout was seen enjoying the game in the rain.

Fans took to social media to mock the soon-to-be-traded Angels star.
"Prolly got hurt watching the game," one fan said.
"If he doesn’t come to Philly to play baseball in the postseason, then he’s a clown," said another fan.
Here are a few other fan reactions:
Given Trout's support for Philadelphia, fans want to trade for him.
The 32-year-old center fielder could be nearing the end of his long stint with the LA Angels, along with former All-Star colleague, Shohei Ohtani.
Both superstars contributed immensely to the Angels, but the team failed collectively in making the postseason.
