exhilarationTime it takes to get from Atlantic County to the Philadelphia Sports Complex: approx. 45 minutes.
Time it takes to get into a parking lot at the Philadelphia Sports Complex when there is a Phillies game and a Flyers game on the same night: another 45 minutes.
How to ensure the Flyers will lose and the weather will turn nasty: Lara brings no coat.
Number of people I've met who know someone who's slept with Pat Burrell: THREE
Is the curse of Billy Penn real: Obviously.
Number of times the William Penn statue has been stolen off the top of the Comcast building since it was first placed there: Six!
According to the NBC sports announcers, people in Philadelphia are into the following: violence and cheesesteaks.
Goalies get to wear a different helmet from the rest of the team because: they're cool like that.
The Wachovia Center was a sea of orange, black, and what other color: Phillies vintage blue. Apparently they were in the wrong stadium :P
True or false - Lara snuck into the Phillies game after seeing the Flyers lose: oh yeah right. Don't I wish! Just got home, though, so don't even ask me about the traffic. Phillies had a rain delay (that I personally caused by again bringing only a hoodie with me...) so not only was the Wachovia Center letting out but most of the crowd was leaving Citizen's Bank Park too...
