    WOW, cheesesteaks at the fundraisers would be awesome, Steve. If we can pull it off, I think it would be great but I'm not sure if there are strict requirements about food to the public - although we really are more like tailgaters. Great idea though.

    dont work on the cheesesteaks just yet. odds are low but petrocs might be able to 'cook' up something with a connection he has to a local cheesesteak place. no offense to mr dunne, but trust me, if this comes thru, even vegetarians will be salivating!

    That would be sweet! Was wondering if there were any restaurants in walking distance from The Spectrum...would like to get something to eat while at the pre-party and before the concert...would be awesome if there was food for sale at the pre-party.

    Well, inside the Spectrum is Bullies bar and restaurant and also within walking distance is McFadden's (inside the Phillies baseball stadium across the street) who generously donated some gift cards to us for raffle items (please see list of items on the OP). Additionally, if the weather isn't kind to us for any of the 4 nights, we have an agreement with McFadden's for them to be our "Plan B" for our Wishlist pre party location and then ofcourse there will be plenty of food available.

    Hey there U-R, some of us even have tats :-D. Guess it's an acquired taste.
    EV my b-i-l used to hit the links at the one in Marlton. Are these open for gp bidding? Very generous donation by Mr. Quinn. Thanks.

    "gp"? general public? gigantic pube? gross president? great phillies?

    I feel like EV doing the "NW" or "MW" rants although I am not as clever...Not sure what "gp" means but come early october, we will be offering all auction items for a limited time via proxy bid to those not attending the pre parties by asking for their highest bid, which we will take to the parties. if no one beats the highest bid taken to the parties, then it's theirs etc. more details in a few weeks....Carry on!!
