Heading to Philly....

[Ruff]

Geno's >>>>>> Pat's for cheesesteak

[heelsrule1988]

A little over a decade ago, I was there with my mom as a 15-year-old kid to see my Hornets play the Sixers in the playoffs... and they STILL showed me no mercy. Called me names that anyone else would've reserved for adults. So yeah... have fun. 

[PhillyB]

go find a santa claus and royally fug him up. no one will know you're not a local.

[Kramerica]

goto Tony Lukes 39 E Oregon Ave Philadelphia, PA.  Get their Roast Pork Italian.  You will thank me later.

 

So, SO much this.

 

Their regular steak is phenomenal, as well. I visit Philly on average of about once a year, and stopping here is a necessity. It's also near the stadium(s).

Enjoy yourself. Philly is an awesome city.

[Chimera]

Steve's Steaks are the best cheese steaks around.  Don't do the usual Genos or whatever the hell else it is.  This advice comes from family members who live in Philly.

 

I'd say Sonny's is the best spot for Philly Cheesesteak.

 

Other stuff for Zod:

if you feel like running up the Rocky stairs, don't park at the museum itself ($32 for parking!!!)

most of the independence stuff is free (liberty bell, independence hall, old town hall, etc). iirc, the only thing you pay for is the constitution center

 

eta: I second the stuff RumGone said about the area with cobblestone streets. Very good restaurants. sorry I don't know the streets or anything, but it's pretty close to the benjamin franklin bridge

 

eta again: if you get there a few days in advance, check out Terror Behind the Walls, a halloween exhibit at an old prison. It runs into november but I don't know exact dates. worth the price of admission

Staying near the airport, I didn't want to get a rental. I should be able to just uber it to the stadium and back right? Only like 8 miles.

[R0CKnR0LLA]

boo all the philly players and throw things at them

 

then nobody will mess with you because they'll think you're a local / eagles fan

Yeah but you will get into some traffic close to the Linc. You can have them drop you off at the Holiday Inn so that they don't have to get into the tailgating madness. Or McFadden's/Xfinity Live area - but that may be a little too congested.

[Brooklyn Bully]

Don't act like rube or your Uber driver will take you on the scenic route to the game.

[PandaMan]

I won't be getting into a fist fight as I am not 18 years old.

I'm close to it though at a freshly turned 22. I'll pick up your slack, no worries.

[SCP]

I'll be covering the game Monday night from the field.

Have never been, please post your survival tips.

Go to Chickie & Petes. Get the crab fries. There is one located by the stadium. You're welcome.

Those damn Crab Fries are legit....until you eat the whole cup.

I shake my fist in anger at you. Nothing personal, I haven't seen the ocean or had fresh seafood in almost two years
