so angry… In NYC, have to work at 4:30, and there’s no train that leaves philly between 1 and 2:30. i guess i’ll just have to watch on espnnews. hopefully the coverage is halfway decent.

Thinking that I’m going to take the train to Suburban Station and make my way over from there…my sister and my nephews are coming all the way from NJ. The boys are missing their Halloween parades/parties in elementary school for this…I don’t think they care, though. We keep telling them that they’ll never forget this and it’s true.

Any idea of when the best time to start arriving is? Is there any kind of rule on how early you can start standing around waiting? (Obviously the first Philly sports championship parade I’ve been too so I’m not sure…)

Ack, dammit, why did I have to get a new job just in time so I could miss the parade? :)

Anybody know if it’s gonna be rebroadcast on TV later for those of us who have to work?

Whole bunch of us going, family and friends, meeting at Benny the Bums, couldn’t get tickets, but the air there will be something to indulge in. i have a friend who just moved to North Carolina on a plane right now, how could you miss this?

We had a company wide meeting planned for tomorrow (15 person company, so I can’t take a sick day and not be noticed). So instead the few of us that want to be there all said something, now we’re going to squeeze everything in between 10 and 11 so I can make the parade! I was so worried I’d miss it, but not anymore. I’m still slightly in shock, I don’t even know what to do anymore I’m so excited!

Not sure if I can make it yet. If I can, I’m going to park at my church in South Philly (off of Passyunk) and then walk the 15 blocks or so to Broad and Oregon.

This is my first parade EVER, so I need suggestions. Is it better to be on the street or to go to the stadium where the players will have the rally?
