I'm selling my 10/28 PJ tix. It's gonna be really weird to not watch the 10/31 Phillies game, but I can't miss the final Spectrum show.

Best weekend ever.

I had a 17 game ticket package...when I purchased my playoff tix, I realized that I would be getting WS home game 1 (the halloween game). I asked the phils if they would give me WS home game 2 instead (sunday night), and they obliged.

Next week is gonna be amazing

You know EV will break out his "Let's go Phillies" improv like he did in June at The Tower. That will get the Spectrum fired up

ESPECIALLY if we're playing the Yankees...

He also has some history with the Phillies, as he's friends with David Bell and has been over at the stadium at least once.

Ibanez and Bako are also huge PJ fans

It would be sweet if they brought in some big ass tv of some sort and put the game on behind them. Unfortunately the scoreboard screen there doesn't have video capabilities.

Is there like a bar area with a TV at the Spectrum? I can't remember.

Nope...

I'm in a suite for the 10/31 show, so I'm hoping they have TVs

do you guys realize you haven't won anything yet?!

do you not remember 2007 when the Sox came back from 3-1?
2004?!?

and plus even if you guys do win.. the first 2 games are being played in New York and will come back to philly after Pj is gone.

dude, get a clue...game 3 of the World Series is Halloween night. It will be in philly at the same time PJ is playing here

The NL team gets a home game in the WS on 10/31 meaning if the Phils win 1 more, 10.31 is going to be one mad, crazy day in South Philly with PJ, the WS, and the Flyboys all in the complex

I know there is in the Wachovia Center but I'm not sure about the Spectrum. Maybe the club boxes have them?

This conflict will be solved when my Dodgers stun everybody by pulling out tomorrow's game and then taking games 6 and 7 at home.

Go Dodgers!

Sadly, my team, The Boston Red Sox were eliminated from the playoffs...so I don't give a fuck about the World Series...I just want to see Pearl Jam!!!

And the idea of putting a large TV with the Phillies game on it in the Spectrum while Pearl Jam is playing is a really stupid idea! If all you care about is the phillies then do everyone a favor and don't come to the concert!

Wow. So I'm not allowed to care about both the concert and the game? I find it hard to believe if PJ was playing up in Red Cocks Nation, all you New Englanders would be freaking out, conflicted and excited as well.

and if you're a red sox fan you should care if the yanks are in the WS. A true red sox fan would want the yanks to lose

Don't worry, just like AC in 2005, Ed will be giving fake score updates the whole show.

LEGENDARY

I'm lucky. partial season ticket holder, in the playoffs whatever games are get are random. I lucked out and got game 4 tickets. While it's going to suck missing game 3 (and DVR'ing the game is no chance), if I had game 3 tickets I'd sell them and try to buy game 4/5 tickets.
