[UPDATE: This event has been cancelled.]
In what could be considered an understatement, 2020 was a disappointing year for many reasons. Chief among them from a sports perspective was the ability to, you know, actually attend games! And not only to sit in the stands to see the actual action but the whole experience of being a fan. The community of it all!
With some sense of normalcy returning to the world, however, tailgating appears to be back on track for 2021. And what better way to celebrate than by getting together with your friends from Bleeding Green Nation! Join us this fall for an incredible day of tailgate games and prizes for competitors.
On Saturday, September 25th the Wells Fargo Center will host The Philly Tailgate Games. This will be an outdoor event where you can compete in games like Cornhole, Ladder Golf, Washers, Jenga and more. There will also be food, beer, and live music to round out the atmosphere. And prizes!
A closer look at the prizes at stake:
Whether you plan to be a competitor or just want to attend an unforgettable block party, all ticket holders will have the chance to enter and win the evening’s epic raffle prize, a pair of tickets to every concert at Wells Fargo Center for a year.
