Philly Sports Weekend

I have always wanted to attend multiple Philadelphia sports event in one weekend and the Phillies' trip to the World Series offered Shelva and I a chance to experience this opportunity. We dropped off Symeon at my Mom's house and headed to Philly for a weekend away. Our first event was the Flyers game at the Wachovia Center in which the Flyers won 5-4 in OT. Then we walked to Citizens Bank Park to catch game 3 of the World Series. During our short walk to the baseball stadium in began to pour and we got drenched just a few feet from getting into the stadium. We tried our best to dry off and spent the long rain delay in a enclosed elevator room with about 30 other people. The game got under way at about 10 and the Phillies won in dramatic fashion in the bottom of the 9th inning. On Sunday we got up, ate breakfast at the diner across the street from our hotel and walked to the Eagles Stadium to watch the Eagles beat the Falcons to complete a perfect 3-0 weekend. Shelva and I had a great time and we survived leaving Symeon for a weekend!
