O's in Philly

[waroriole]

Anybody in this area going to the games in Phily next week?

I was thinking of taking a half day Thursday and going

[ChuckS]

I was there for work for the past two weeks. Just got back home to DC today. Didn't plan that trip on the right week.

Stayed in Bella Vista. Great neighborhood with the Italian Market right there. I think I'd gain 100 pounds if I lived in that City. Love a good sammich.

Shame that Chen is just average.

Me and a friend will be there Thursday. Looking for tickets now.

Yeah, there's a lot of good places to eat in South Philly. Did you go to Paesano's? Not South Philly, but great sammich.

I did actually if it's the one on S. 9th street in the Italian Market. That place is about three blocks from the B&B I was staying at. Got the Italian sub. Had some weird name to it that I don't recall, but it was very good.

Philly is a great foodie town. It's tough to go wrong. If you (or anyone) go to either game, you must hit Tony Luke's on Oregon Avenue. Just up from the stadium on Front Street. It's about 5 minutes north of Citizen's Bank Park. There is a Tony Luke's stand in the stadium, but I suggest going to the original store at Front and Oregon. While their cheesesteaks are tremendous, their signature sandwich is the roast pork and provolone. Get the sharp provolone, and if you are adventurous, the broccoli rabe. It's quite possibly THE perfect sandwich.

I'll be there both games.

[ReclaimTheCrown]

I'll be heading up with four others for the Thursday game. Meeting my uncle that lives up there. He's bringing the cheesesteaks, we're bringing the beer to tailgate. Just hope it's not a billion degrees.

What's the go to bars around the stadium? I was told McFaddens and Xfinity Live.

Oh yeah. I forgot there's one there. If you're ever back, get the lamb sausage. Amazing.

Just got tickets for Thurs game...front row in 102.

[Nevermore]

Shame that Chen is just average.

Ubaldo is pitching the first game being played in Philly. Chen will pitch tomorrow when the Phillies are playing here in Baltimore.

[OriolesObsessed]

A group of us will be there Wednesday night. Sitting in section 102, row 1.

My brother and I are going up for both. Wednesday night in Sec. 104 and Thursday in Sec. 11 (behind visitor's dugout).
