As the Philadelphia Phillies fight for a Game 5 victory in the World Series Thursday night, the Eagles will be playing at the same time, hoping to remain undefeated, which means some bars will be forced to figure out which games to show to patrons.

At Doobies Bar in Graduate Hospital, owner Patti Brett only has one working television, and she plans for it to be tuned in to the Phillies.

"Two of the games that we lost, one to Houston last night and one to the Padres during the playoffs, I watched from another bar, so I feel like I jinxed the team," Brett said with a laugh. "The beers will be flowing tonight."
