Hey guys

Mark your calendars, SSFC travels to Philly! I want to see a sea of green "Break In" their new stadium

Using this thread as a placeholder for now and to drum up interest in this trip, we are currently working on trip details for this one.

Map of stadium:

I believe there is a SEPTA stop close by

As for transportation, I know a lot of you are spread out across the East so my personal recommendation if you are in NY, DC or somewhere in between is the Amtrak. Reasonable price IIRC and went pretty quick

Will post up more details as they become available

And if anyone has any info on good pubs nearby or hotels or anything relevant to gameday itself, post them up here

Philly is our weakest city at the moment as far as coordination goes. Being their first year in the league I wasn't able to make contacts last year like the rest of the away matches... We are planning though to have people making their way through the stadium prematch with info on the ECS AND SSE handing them out to anyone in the blue and green, as well as (baring no issues with security) asking them to join us in our section, they may not know what the hell is going on, but they will have a better understanding by the end of the match...
We should start things moving for this now but immediately following the NYRB match, this should be top priority for the SSE. We need to really press our members to make a showing at this match if no others.

I'll be driving up from dc, but I can't pack them in like sardines...

Danimal the game is on Sunday the 27th, right? can you change the title of the thread for the correct date?

By the way. Except for a few hic-ups the planning for this looked great! Congrats to all those who set this up.
