Standing Room Only for Philadelphia Eagles?

November 9, 2007 - Craig from Toronto:
Hans,
Love the webpage, I am inspired by your quest and wish you all the best. I am making a little road trip from Toronto to go see my Philadelphia Eagles play the Miami Dolphins next weekend. My question to you is do you think it's worth it to pay some extra $ to get real seats or are the Standing Room Only seats alright. On Stub Hub I can get standing room for $65 - $75 and I have seen some upper deck seats for $80 - $100.
Do you get a decent view of the game from the Standing Room Only Seats?
Thanks allot and enjoy your Quest for 31,
Craig


The standing room only areas at Lincoln Financial Field are pretty cool and provide a great area to congregate and chat with other fans. The issue is that you'll be watching the game on the JumboTron as it's difficult to get a clear view of the actual field from there. There are some circular staircases leading up to the upper deck areas that you can stand in as well, but they get fairly crowded early in the game. If you're making the trek from all the way from Toronto to see your team, it's worth the extra money for real seats. Feel free to check out my NFL Ticket links on my Lincoln Financial Field page when you're looking for tickets.

Hans,
Thanks again for the info on the Linc. As you recommended it was worth paying a little extra $$ for some real seats at the Game between the Eagles and the Dolphins. I used your link to stubhub. We got seats in the upper deck in sec 243 and the view was great. I agree with your review - there is not a bad seat in the house, it is a great place to watch a game with an amazing atmosphere.

Thanks,
Craig
