Yes it is terrible for them to wreck the history of the Flyers like that...It is the ONLY place we had left where any championships were won. I've been a DIEHARD Flyers fan since '68 myself.

GO FLYERS!!!!

Ahhh the Spectrum. Many memories as well, Flyers fan since the Broad Street Bullies. Many many concerts Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young were some of my favorites. Jeff maybe I saw you at Robin Trower ;D Probably couldn't see anything at the Dead shows........

I got to see Evil Kneivel jump ten(?) school buses there in the early 70's! Ah, take me back to those days of yesteryears! He had a pair of big ones!
