June 1, 2013 - Philadelphia, PA

Here we go!!!

Fortune of the day -

This year's trip, now with 25% more Bette!

Walt Whitman Bridge

Philadelphia Sports Complex. All Stephanie could think about was Lou "The Toe" Groza. -sigh-

Welcome to Citizens Bank Park! The Phillies will be "welcoming" the Milwaukee Brewers today.

The Phanatic is enthralled by the statue of Steve Carlton.

It was take-a-picture-with-the-team day.

Darn it. We only eat McCoy grillin'.

Cool mosaic of the ballpark

Greg "Bull" Luzinski's BBQ

130 years and one month ago today, the Phillies lost the first game they ever played in the National League.

Brewers fans RULE!

The restaurant named for the legendary voice of Philadelphia sports, Harry Kalas.

Dig

Chicken-Donuts-Chicken-Donuts...

Hello Philadelphia!

Interesting

The High-and-Inside Pub is located at section 420. Coincidence?

The Phanatic is eating Mrs. McElhaney's head. Nom nom.

The field

Hmm...Todd wonders about the Yankee's pitcher today. Guidry? Really?

Welcome home Marine!


Oh. The scoreboard has been corrected. Hughes, not Guidry, will start for the Yankees. (The Indians still won! Wahoo!)

Stephanie wonders if this is more people than all the rest of the games combined that we will on this see on this journey.  The plan is 10 minor league games.

Aaaaah!

Homerun!

Oh Frankie. Still a scumbag (or was it dirtbag).

Frankie held on for the save. The Brewers beat the Phillies 4-3.

What a great ballpark!

This is John. He got to ride on a Firetruck after the Phillies won the World Series in '08. He didn't mind Todd's Yankee shirt from '09 but others did not like it so much.
Hi John!

Legendary Philadelphia A's coach Connie Mack.
