My home city

by DrexelDragon - last update: Jan 23, 2005

Home of the Eagles

Although I live in New Jersey, my house is but a 15 minute drive across the Walt Whitman Bridge to downtown Philadelphia. It's my home city. My jumping off point for work and travels, and it's where I always return.

I will make my Philadelphia travel guide the flagship page. I have gone out extensively in Philly during my time at Drexel University in University City and my post-grad years. So, I feel it my unbiased duty to carry on where others have tried.

I am disappointed to report that I do not have any digital photos right now to post. Yet, on my next trip home, I will be sure to snap some specifically for posting here.

If there is something missing from my page that you think should be included, then please let me know. Also, check out my other pages, and send comments if you like. I enjoy hearing from and communicating with you. Thanks, and Welcome to Philadelphia.

Eagles Fight Song

Philly is home to the Philadelphia 76ers, Phillies, Flyers, Phantoms, Kixx, and others, but most importantly, it is home to the Philadelphia Eagles. Yeah, we boo'ed Donovan McNabb on draft day, but who ever thought Ricky Williams would end up studying holistic medicine in N. Cali.? Honestly, we take football seriously in this city, and we take it to heart. We are the only NFL team with a fight song. Without further introduction...
Fly Eagles Fly,
On the Road to VICTORY!!!
Fight Eagles Fight,
Score a touchdown, 1-2-3!!!
Hit em low, hit em hgih
And we'll watch our Eagles fly...
Fly Eagle Fly,
ON THE ROAD TO VICTORY!!!
E - A - G - L - E - S!!!

 Lots of nightlife on your page. :-) There was none when I grew up in Phila... back in the Stone Age. Good restaurant tips.. I'm craving a cheesesteak.. none in the UK!

 We have a liberty bell, too - a copy of yours, in a park called, wouldn't you know, Liberty Bell Party...
