I recently got tickets for 8/27 show and have never been to Philadelphia. There were still field tickets available on Wed! Any suggestions where to stay? I also bought tailgate parking, but is it easier to use public transportation? Any help appreciated.

There's a Motel 6 on Route 73 off exit 4 of the Turnpike, some of us are staying there, 65 bucks and about 20-25 minute drive to the park.
