:( (dinner is what I'm referring to)

Consider me in for dinner - I'll ask for guidance on how to get from PHL to downtown Saturday morning before the match (and back to PHL Sunday) a little later ...

Are you flying in Saturday morning?

Update: I'm taking the Bolt Bus down to Philly. Any help getting from JFK and N 31st would be very much appreciated.

I'm envious, folks. As a Flyers fan who grew up an hour or so from Philly, I wish I could've made it. Did the next best thing, though -- bought tickets to the Flyers/Hawks game the next day in Chicago.

I'll be watching on TV. Wave at the camera.

I will unfortunately not make it to dinner.

Will go to game (and any pre-game Philly downtown meetups); then come back to downtown with everyone on the train;
then gotta go.

Thanks again ConciergeMike for organizing this event. I am excited to meet everyone who is coming!

I should be arriving into Philly around 12pm...Is there anything planned for that time?

I arrive Friday, will stay at one of the airport hotels Friday night (booked on the AmEx Travel 50% Off day last month), then have the Hyatt at the Bellevue night booked for Saturday.

No Dinner for me, so a :( and hopefully the weather won't be that bad...

The game starts at 1PM...you better get there quick! Its a subway ride from center city...not too far on the subway.

Bolt Bus is dropping me off at JFK and N 31st. How long of a ride would that be?

It will drop you 30th and JFK (almost the same as 31st/JFK).

From there, to stadium involves two subway trains (fastest option).

Fastest way:

Go to 30th street subway station; Get on Market-Frankford line going towards Frankford Transit Center.
get off at 15th Street station (One stop).

Then, walk to City hall station (about 5 minutes).
Get on Broad-Street Line Subway; Going towards AT&T station.

The stadium will be the last stop. (about 10-12 minutes)

Hopefully everything will go well!

You left out the part about him stopping at teh Ritz-Carlton to pick up his ticket. :D

Uh oh!!

Alright, he needs some more directions. Can he make it to the stadium with the stop? Seems tight.
