Philadelphia Phillies fans are known to be one of the most passionate groups in the Major League Baseball, and on Tuesday night they lived up to their reputation.

The promotion for the game against the Miami Marlins allowed fans to purchase a hot dog for $1. Thousands of fans jumped at the opportunity and stood in long lines at concession stands throughout Citizens Bank Park.

"I’ve never seen so many people in line for a hot dog before… this dollar dog night had to top any the stadium has ever had," one Twitter user wrote.

As the home team began to fall behind on the scoreboard, a large food fight broke out inside the ballpark.

The hot dogs were tossed from the stadium's upper deck before the lower bowl began throwing food a short time later.

One Twitter user joked that they were witnessing the Phillies' "here come the pretzels moment." The joke is a reference to a "Simpson" episode in which a cartoon former New York Yankees pitcher Whitey Ford is hit with snacks that were made by the character Marge.

As more videos began to circulate on social media, it appears that some fans were also possibly throwing the hot dog wrappers.
