Easiest way to get to the city is easily by taking the Amtrak from Penn Station to 30th Street Station. From there you would just need to get the Broad Street Line and take it down to the sports complex.Spur of the moment I just got a GA ticket (for almost half the price I paid in Miami, too!).
Now to arrange traveling... Philly people... what's the easiest way to get to LFF from New York?

grace40streets said:Also, looks like our glow stick plans might be foiled: They're among the prohibited items listed. I'm not sure if it makes sense to try to smuggle them in or not, but I don't think I would want to risk it. What do y'all think??
Awesome alright... so basically don't get stuck inside the Stadium, sounds good.
I wish I had booked a day earlier... there was a 1 a.m. train then which would've been perfect. I have absolutely no idea how/why it filled up/was taken down but I came back to book it today and it wasn't there.
Or maybe I was imagining things... all I know is that I'm roamin' the streets of Philadelphia until 5 a.m. if I miss that train I wish there was an a.m. bus but I couldn't find any. Either way, I'm more comfortable getting on the train and then instead of getting out at Chinatown/SoHo I'll be able to hop right onto the 123 or ABC and head back down to Tribeca straight from Penn Station. Shockingly, I might be back well, well before I got back in Miami.
If the train somehow fails, I'll still likely get more sleep than I did after Miami because I had to stay up until 8 a.m. after dropping my sister off at the airport
This is exciting... first time in Philly. Maybe I'll just not show up for the GA Line until around 3 pm and get whatever spot I get so I can see the city.
Even more interestingly is the *lack* of mention of prohibited cameras. The only thing mentioned is that "videocameras" are prohibited. Does this mean the DSLR's are good???
Also, it seems that all floor people, GA and RZ are queuing at the South Gate. Does that mean that there will be just 1 line??? I've seen how it works at other stadiums, but not here, so i'm really not quite sure how that's going to work out. They mention "dedicated turnstiles".
I've got a couple questions. Where outside the stadium does the GA line queue begin? And is it okay to bring a chair and abandon it outside the stadium? I won't have a car or anything to put it in once we are let in the stadium.
Does "video cameras" mean camcorders or what?
Are you asking if you can litter?

I'm assuming it means anything is a dedicated video recorder. Phones and cameras with video capability i'm also assuming are good.
I'd appreciate any info. on cameras that are allowed into the venue. someone posted a bit earlier that only video cameras are being prohibitted. is this true?
I can take fairly long videos with my phone and so will anyone else who has a smartphone. how are they going to stop that?
I would LOVE to take my DSLR into the show but only if its not going to get confiscated. Its a very expensive camera and I'd be able to take awesome pics.
Every U2 concert I've been to, I have always seen people with point and shoot cameras so I know they don't care about those.
Not sure if it matters but, I have seats and not GA so not sure if that affects camera policy
I thought you said you were driving up there?
Well either way... the amount of chairs that are abandoned could fill up a whole house worth of chairs. So yeah, abandon it if you have to. Just fold it up and put it against the wall when they tell everyone to put their stuff away at around 3-4pm.

I did call them and asked this. I was told that amateur photographers with lenses of 200mm or under are ok. I specifically asked her, "My camera is a DSLR, it has a pretty big body compared to a point and shoot but the lens is under 200mm, is that ok?" She said "You should be fine."
Sounds like it's ok? Worth the risk? Just because the Linc says one thing doesn't mean some momo working security isn't going to see things differently.
