    Isn't there a pizza museum in Philly - in a restaurant?

    No idea - if you want pizza go with any of these: Beddia, Pizzeria Vetri, Lorenzo's for gigantic slices (and/or a South Street Taco), Gennaro's on Passyunk, Brigantessa, Marra's, Stogie Joe's, annnnnd either Cacia's/New York Bakery/Villari Bros. for tomato pie. I can go on and on.

    Reading Terminal is a good time and all to do the tourist thing, but I hate crowds and lines. Wander about the city, soak it in, eat the food, and talk to the rando's at the bar. You may end up meeting the nicest buncha assholes.

    Has anyone received their print at home tickets from the Wells Fargo center yet?

    No and I have a deal to sell one. What the hell is taking so long?
    It's not like TM at all. I called them about some Adele tix I bought over a month ago to be mailed and they said they won't be mailed until they're printed. They have no idea when that would be. Comcast Tix is pretty awful.
    Alright, alright, alright!

    I've got fan club tickets to 4/28 and I have a solo ticket, lower behind in the stage for 4/29. I live about 10 minutes from the Wells Fargo Center.

    Thank you, YetAnotherFiasco. It's near La Colombe coffee (?) - wonderful!

    In Washington DC there are a couple areas where people go for a "city" snowball fight - Logan Circle, Dupont Circle - places where they can find big city circular parks. Those areas are the places that have good food and are pretty interesting sections of the town. Also, they have residential architecture that reflects some of the best that Washington DC has to offer.

    Where would Philly residents go to for a "city" snowball fight?

    City was built on these - Rittenhouse Square, Washington Square, Headhouse Square, Logan Square, Franklin Square; all cool places, all over the place, but walkable if you're ambitious to get to all of them.

    Thing is Philly is a city of neighborhoods so it can get more complex than that. Neighborhoods worth checking out - and I'm bias - are Graduate Hospital, East Passyunk, Society Hill/Queen Village, Pennsport: pretty much most of South Philadelphia.

    If you're into BYOs then it doesn't get any better than here.

    I'm in the same boat as you. I just called and he said they're auditing the tickets? Whatever that means. He said hopefully this week or next. I need them now!!
