Preseason: Eagles Vs Bengals

Hey Everyone,
I'll be going down to this game and wanted to see if anyone was planning on tailgating a little, etc. It's the only preseason game I'd go to since the starters are probably going to play the entire first half and a series or 2 in the 3rd quarter.

There is a concert down there Friday night, so you might all want to get there early.

Im not going to the game but im going to the concert...maybe we'll venture over and harass some of you mikey.

LSB and I are going to the game, but not the concert. We're leaving after work, so we won't get there until about 5:30 or 6:00. Pray for us.

What concert is going on? Doesn't really matter since I won't be there anyway. But I won't be able to sleep tonight unless I find out.

SOAD and Mars Volta

Thanks for the speedy response. And since my boss is gone I'm going to take a nap now.

We could only sell two of our four tickets for this one, so the wife and I are most likely going to the Bengals game...but, being on a Friday night, I doubt we'll get down early enough to tailgate...I'm hoping we arrive early enough for kick-off.

At which venue is the concert, Wachovia Center or Spectrum? Thanks for the info!

keep in mind, the Phillies parking lot is FINALLY done so there is a LOT more parking available.

PhillyGirl · August 25, 2005, 08:48:07 AM

Forgot all about that Vet lot, it's been so long in being completed. Thanks for the info!

You should be fine there is only 1 concert tomorrow at the Spectrum. There isn't really a parking issue until San Diego on 10/23, there is that Haunted House thing AND Disney on Ice, before and after nobody is dumb enough to schedule major conflicts with an Eagles game.

WAIT I forgot about the baseball playoffs

Greetings all. Long time no....uh....type. My boss hooked me up with 2 tix to this game. I was hoping that there would be a gathering for this one, but I had no idea there was a concert. I'm assuming that will squash any get-togethers. I'll be leaving Scranton around 3-ish. Any tips on parking if the Linc lot is full?

Thanx.....
