    The field
    Tiffany H.

    First off getting to Franklin Field is an adventure. It's semi downtown so plan ahead. The stadium is beautiful and well kept. The field is gorgeous. One thing to know before you go is the stadium is HUGE with LOTS of steps. Steps every where you go. So be prepared. Also bleacher style seating

    Franklin Field is a bucket list sporting venue that you must go to! It's historic charm and great sight lines are overall welcoming feel is simply an amazing experience. The pain relays are held every April at the end of the month and it is the largest and oldest track and field event in the United States outside of any Olympic competitions. Countries and athletes throughout the world flocked to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to participate in the relays and carnival. You get to see world class runners and world-class people all celebrating a world-class sport track and field. The event staff are welcoming, although the security can be a little distant and emotionless. Fans throughout the venue always seem to have a good time celebrating life and the events taking place on the track. I'll return year after year as long as I'm able to do so!

    Joe Biden was actually here when Franklin Field was built in the 1800s! Penn, Ivy League Football Champs, 2015. Graduation, 2016. The Donald & the Veep. Penn is cool. A nice breezy evening. Very cool. Nice!

    I had to go see my favorite rapper on what just may be his last tour ... for what just may be his…read morelast album - The Fall Off, and seeing it in Philly at XFinity Mobile was GREAT! My first time visiting this venue and it was an overall great experience. Lots of parking, lots of food and drink options, lots of staff to assist and great seating! J Cole was BOMB as usual - BEST concert of his I've been to (& I've been to a bunch). Will always consider XFinity Mobile for performances going forward.

    Room for improvement…read more Let's start with the bad. 1) Even with prepaid parking it is a shitshow. They didn't have parking availability at the event so I opted to park across the street in the Citizens Bank Parking Lot. The individuals who are directing traffic and letting you in do not do a great job. They were waving me to go around when that was not correct at all, luckily I pulled a U turn and had my car half way in the lot when he said pull in. He was legit trying to get me lost after I paid for reserve parking in that designated lot. 2)Went to Chickie's and Pete's ordered one basket of tenders with fries, another order of fries, and three cokes. Bill came to $78, when I asked for a breakdown, the cashier gave me a look like I had three heads and said they don't do that and handed my a receipt just with the total charge on it. The Venue itself presents well, and we had seats in section 113 center which made my first WWE event a very pleasurable experience. Now should I mention that three tickets at this level total almost $1,000? A very expensive night out to go to most events at the Xfinity Mobile Area. You do have Xfinity Live! within a few blocks with big screens and good eats, I would probably opt to watch events at Xfinity Live instead but if you're jonesing to see the event in person be sure to save up for the event. As always people SYOY!!!

We got to our seats right away and went shopping in the team store in section 134. The amount of Phillies gear is staggering! Our ushers were super friendly and very knowledgeable about the stadium and where to find what ever we needed. Thank you to the Phillies and staff for making our first return trip to Citizens Bank Park in nearly 20 years a great experience that our kids will never forget.

    Excellent venue for a basketball game. When we first walked into the arena, I was actually…read moresurprised by its size--it's a cozy 6.500 seat facility for hoops. For some reason I had assumed that a storied program like Villanova, with three national championships, would have a much larger home court. But, once that surprise wore off, I was really impressed with the basketball environment. Our 3rd row seats gave us access to a supposedly exclusive club at halftime, so I was expecting some quality eats--unfortunately, the chicken po boy that came highly recommended was probably the worst arena food I've ever had. Nonetheless, I didn't go for food, I went for the game, and the high energy collegiate basketball atmosphere of this place would surely be tough to beat anywhere. If you have a chance to see a game here, make sure to take it!

    Let me first start off by apologizing for the previous reviewer, dan h, and his baby knees for…read morehaving such a tough and sober time at the Pav. There are two types of Dans in this world-- those who rise above and those who squander, and it's unfortunate to hear that Villanova let this kind of beta-Dan into such a fine establishment. As I first walked into the Pav, I immediately felt the love and warmth that has traditionally bonded the Villanova community together for centuries. The Pavilion, which needed a big upgrade, looked like a totally different animal once inside. At 6 5" and 240 lbs I found that I had ample legroom. Once comfortably seated in our section, my beautiful wife, 3 beautiful children and myself were lucky enough to catch a thrilling contest between Nova and Temple. Wow. What a showdown. My 3 little ones were on the edge of their seats, and my wife and I formed yet another glorious memory together. All-in-all, we stayed the whole game because, as true Wildcats, we finish what we start. PS - I am in full support of the serving of alcohol for those of age. College is a wonderful learning experience, and there is no better place to learn responsible drinking habits than under the direct supervision of the greatest University in The United States of America. Go Cats baby.

    Every time I walk into Choice Inline Arena, I am reminded of visiting here in the 80's and roller…read moreskating to "Funkytown" at teen parties. Of course, then I remember that I stunk at roller skating and spent most of my time holding onto the wall or picking myself up after falling on my butt again. Unfortunately, not as many kids want to fall on their butt for hours at a time while skating in a circle so Skater's Choice - as it used to be known - had to evolve. It is now called Choice Inline Arena. The space that used to be the roller rink now houses a basketball/futsal court on one end and the home of Jersey Pride Cheer and Tumble on the other end. Sharing the entrance is what is called Court 3 - which is a full-sized roller hockey rink complete with locker rooms and everything. In the last few years, I have only visited this facility to watch my kids play futsal. It is the home of South Jersey Futsal - which is run by Don D'Ambra. Don D'Ambra is a Philly guy who played soccer at St. Joes and later was the player/coach for the Philadelphia Kixx. He is currently head coach at St. Joes. For those that don't know - futsal is a type of soccer that is played 5v5 with a smaller ball that is 30% heavier than a regular soccer ball to limit bouncing. It is a fast paced and fun winter game that is played on a court the size of a basketball court. The facility is fine for futsal - although the amenities are a little lacking. The roof ocassionally leaks when there is a lot of ice, rain, or condensation. There is limited seating courtside that is only accessible through a very narrow walkway that may or may not be handicapped accessible. The snack bar is limited and the bathrooms serve double duty as the locker rooms for the roller hockey rink and are as smelly as you might imagine. The parking is very limited and you may need to park in the lot next door. It is great to have facilities like this available for our kids to pursue the sports they love. Come here with the appropriate expectations and you will be OK - but I guarantee your kids will be tired and happy and that is the more important thing.
