Sixers Fan Survival Guide | Philadelphia 76ers News

LeBron’s in Philly now, and the Sixers’ fanbase is about to get a whole new wave of hype — complete with the iconic 1975 anthem “Here Come the Sixers,” stomps, claps, and all. But don’t be fooled by the swagger: this team’s history is packed with wild injuries — Embiid’s broken face, Bell’s palsy, Simmons’ rookie foot break, and Zhaire’s allergic meltdown. The mascot game’s been a ride too, from Hip-Hop the rabbit to Franklin the Dog (yes, named after Ben Franklin), with roots tracing back to the Phillie Phanatic’s creators. And let’s not forget “Trust the Process” — Sam Hinkie’s controversial rebuild that tanked its way to stars and became a cultural touchstone. Oh, and if you’re new here? Booing your own team? That’s not disrespect — it’s Philly passion. Get ready to chant, embrace the chaos, and dive into the city’s basketball soul.
