I was out a bar on Saturday night and they had one of those digital jukeboxes where you can play almost anything. And I played Defying Gravity simply because I read here what it meant to you.

Nobody knew the song, but it wasn't meant for them.

Re: tailgating?

Having never been to CBP.... So what's going on with the Philly "pre-pay"parking? I bought "tailgate" just to make sure I had somewhere to eat my shrimp cocktail & drink my Corona's. Did anyone else pre-pay? The pre-pay parking is something sorta new on this scale. I had a p...

I was goofing around on eBay and took notice of the fact that many of the OVER priced seats are expiring with no bids. It seems the people who post tickets with a low price and allow bidding to drive up the price are getting higher prices. There is some comfort in knowing that the guy (or girl) who ...

I've got a Thursday and a Saturday in Philly, so I've go no complaints. Although going to a Buffett show during the week makes it so much more "escapist." :pirate:

Yes the Tweeter (NJ) is less than 20 minutes from the Philly Stadiums.

That would explain it. :pirate:

The oversized vehicles are RV's. Normally they let you park in the Acme Parking lot, the Jetro or the Linc parking lot. Honestly. Considering Parrotheads in Philly and Jersey are Eagle fans, there will be some early morning tailgating. My guess is one lot will be near capacity by 10:00 AM. NOBODY t...

There's the Holiday Inn in Cherry Hill (NJ) about 20 minutes from the Stadiums and also the Cherry Hill Hilton both on Route 70. The Hilton is only 1 mile closer than the Holiday Inn but it overlooks the Cooper River Park if you care about such things. The Holiday Inn is across the street from a big...

In Camden, people walk around with cans and bottles in koozies to keep it cold (a nice benefit on an August day). If your beer gets warm, then you did not drink it fast enough. I plan on getting to the lot around 11am. The concert's not until 8pm. It's all about pace my good man. All about pace. :p...

So you know we have been Eagles Season ticket holders for years and the cops are very cool down there. And they will be the same here. Just do not get out of hand and you will be fine. But understand what they see within the Eagles fan and the Buffett fan are two different things. The Buffett fan w...

I just hope it's not like Camden where the early arrivers have to park a mile away. I ordered two tailgate passes and hope they are worth it. Yes, I know I'll have to walk some, but still should get better parking than someone just pulling up that day. Aw, who cares as long as the cops don't hassle....

Philly Ticket Info

The firstm time

Much like many of you, I only new a few hits, but that all changed in 1996. I was at a beach themed bar near us the night before Jimmy's show and asked for contestants to win tickets for the show. I volunteered and they announced a cheesburger eating contest. Whoever could finish four cheeseburgers ...

Loose Tickets

I was just goofing around on neweratickets.com and they had a few single seats for Saturday's show. Choose Seats "1" and PL2 (Not "Side").

Figured I'd let you know before the scalpers get to them.
