Moving to Philly in the summer

**Khar** · 03-01-2004 08:08 PM

Hey all I'm from Atlanta, GA and attend school in Auburn, AL. But this summer I will be living in Philadelphia, PA with my girlfriend. Actually just outside of Philly in Aldan. If anyone is familiar with the area and could point me to a good gym to workout at or even wants a workout partner

then let me know!

bump since ill be in philly next year.

**Stabber** · 03-02-2004 11:00 AM

ugh....whatever you do, stay away from southstreet area. Nasty nasty nasty nasty place. Be glad you're not living directly in the city. Philly really is a nasty place

**Khar** · 03-05-2004 12:46 PM

im guessing southstreet area is a dangerous place? ill be living a tiny suburb like 10 mins from downtown so i think ill be ok

**kimpy225** · 03-05-2004 05:08 PM

i need a workout partner

**Khar** · 03-06-2004 10:27 PM

Dont become a Philly sports fan or youll be forced to boo santa clause, cheer opponents injuries, and piss in the sink at the stadium..... and your team will never make it to the Superbowl

**Khar** · 03-09-2004 12:03 PM

I will NEVER boo santa clause though...I love him

If you're in the town I think you're in, you're more than 10 minutes from Downtown. I think there is a Bally's in Darby or something like that. Downtown there are a lot of gyms, like any city. I use Rittenhouse Square fitness center in center city (www.ritfit.com) , its small but has verything I need.

One note of caution, 12th street gym downtown is in the "gayborhood", so only join if you are comfortable with that environment.

Oh, and South street ain't that bad everywhere, its where a few bars are and a lot of shopping. You just have to be prepared for it. Besides, everyone heads to the Jersey shore during summer anyways.

Thanks for the info dog.

they took down this real big stadium there a while ago and built a parking lot.

Its becoming almost cliche for things people love to be turned into parking lots

**ericg** · 03-24-2004 10:02 AM

That stadium was bad. I would never want to play on that field. Yeah there is some history in it but thats true with everything.

**Y2A** · 03-25-2004 10:00 AM

The last bit of history is Ronde Barber picking off McNabb to take the Bucs to the Superbowl, MUAHAHAHAHAHA. Forever the last memorable play at the Vet. That stadium was a hell hole and considering the same PEOPLE will be going to the Linc, it wont be long till that stadium has rats and smells like piss also.

**ericg** · 03-25-2004 10:12 AM

Haha. I think of the old Foxborough stadium and remember the trough you had to piss in. When you went to a winter game it made me think of an ice luge (sp?). Gillete stadium is much better. I havent seen a game in there yet but I did see Metallice, Limp, LP, and others last summer. Nice place.

I went to foxborough a couple times, I heard Gilette was really nice but I havent been at all, since I dont live up there anymore. Pro Player down here is pretty nice, but the away team always has just as many fans as the home team lol.

**ItalianGalleon** · 03-26-2004 01:36 PM

Hey Kevin, what're you going to be doing in philly this summer? I got a job in atlanta, so it'll be another awesome summer of east cobb. rock on.

**Khar** · 03-28-2004 12:43 PM

Joe, if all goes well I will be living most of the summer in Philly with my girlfriend. But if for some reason it doesn't work out I will be back in cobb doing the same ol **** I was doing last summer

Either way I'll be in cobb the first few weeks of the summer.
