Since a few others have looked back at their 2006 pictures to end the year, I figured I would do the same. I decided to do something a little different though: I wanted to showcase my times and travels from the sporting events that I attended.
These pictures don't just include Philadelphia venues; pictures from my road trips are included.
Also included in the thread are pictures that I've never gotten around to showing, even on SSC, until now. These include the pictures of The Eagles/Jaguars game, Eagles/Falcons game, Wing Bowl, and Frawley Stadium in Wilmington. These pictures have much more commentary because I showed all of my pictures on SSC at some point, except for the aforementioned events. So I described those pictures in detail, whereas the other events were recaps for SSC people.
