The Big Three: Where Legends are Made
Tip: Avoid distractions — stay in the post.
Citizens Bank Park: Home to the Fightin' Phils, this ballpark is a modern masterpiece. Catch a homerun ball soaring over the Ashburn Alley, or snag a cheesesteak from the concession stand (because, let's be honest, that's the real MVP).
Lincoln Financial Field: This is where the Eagles soar! Feel the electricity in the air as you witness the midnight green take the field. Just a friendly tip: prepare your vocal cords for the iconic fight song "Fly, Eagles, Fly!"
Wells Fargo Center: This multi-purpose arena is a haven for all things basketball and hockey. Witness the dazzling moves of the 76ers or cheer on the Flyers as they check opponents into the boards (ice hockey metaphor, folks...mostly).
