Let’s cut to the chase, Philly. We aren’t getting the Super Bowl Watch Party we wanted at Lincoln Financial Field.
Despite thousands of signatures on my “Free The Super Bowl” petition on Change.org, not a single ticket-taker or Schmitter-maker at the Linc is preparing for 69,175 Eagles fans to watch the Big Game on those 27-by-96-foot, Panasonic LED video screens.
God, what a memorable, thrilling, once-in-a-lifetime civic moment it could have been for so many of us to cheer together in the stadium where the team clinched its Super Bowl spot.
