For all of the hate Philadelphia sports fans get, this Phillies fan seems like a pretty good guy. Damon Miller Jr. tweeted last Thursday that he’d buy everyone chicken nuggets if Rhys Hoskins homered.
If Hoskins goes yard tonight I'll buy everyone chicken nuggets

Well, the red-hot Hoskins indeed homered in the second inning of that game. And on Tuesday, the Phillies tweeted that Miller was living up to his promise:
Tonight. First Base Gate.
CHICKEN NUGGETS Y'ALL! https://t.co/sK24nX5UEC

We weren’t kidding. @Damon_Miller_Jr is here to make good on his wager.

Miller stood at the first base gate at Citizens Bank Park holding a blown-up poster of his tweet and giving away free nuggets to fans.

The Phillies should keep their relationship with Miller going. Hoskins didn’t homer on Tuesday against the Dodgers, but he did drive in four runs and hit what would serve as a game-winning bases-clearing double:
