They wouldn't let my wife bring in her purse. However they let someone bring in a larger one right before her. So she drew attention to this. They didn't care. She had to go buy a $10 clear bag. This really wouldn't have been an issue if it wasn't so inconsistent. Also like I know you can charge whatever you want for food and drink cuz it's your venue and all but should you?!

Magical unicorn here! I visited Fright Factory this year on the final Saturday (the busiest night)…read morebefore Halloween and it is well worth the money, especially when you can go alone or at most a group of two. The scare actors timed their approaches perfectly and scared the living !@#$%^&* out of me more than ten times. I was scared out of my mind at one point and thought about leaving, but I had to continue because, well, I paid for a VIP ticket! At one point, I could not see in front of me and I felt so discombobulated that I wanted to sit and calm myself down. Right after I left the haunt, I felt really nauseous. That's how scary this was. This haunt is THE BEST HAUNT IN PHILLY 2025. Eastern State Penitentiary was good. Lincoln Mill was better. But this haunt... jeez, it's on another level. Nobody's paying me to say any of this. I like going to places without someone else swaying my opinion. The scenes are really good and well thought out. Lincoln Mill tried copying one of the scenes at Fright Factory but it pales by comparison to Fright Factory. You will be scared out of your mind when the monster approaches you in it. Big props to the creepy clowns. They make Art the Clown look normal by comparison. One clown in particular had this way of approaching me that was hella creepy. I was freaked out! I timed this haunt on my smart watch at 25 minutes from start to finish. It is described as three parts/acts/sections according to their web site and other reviews. There's more to it than just thinking about the haunt as sections. If you submerge yourself into any one room for too long, you will see, as I did, how scary that could be. I was hightailing it out of certain areas as fast as I could as the monsters chased after me, sometimes for long corridors before they let up. You're looking at a much longer haunt stepwise than most other haunts. According to my smart watch, I experienced almost 4 minutes of 127+ bpm heart rate (that's super high intensity), about 11.5 minutes of 99-127 bpm heart rate (high intensity), and 11 minutes of 71-99 bpm moderate intensity. I'm an elite level athlete (#6 in the world in yoga asana competition), so your experience may differ. If you suffer from any heart or breathing conditions, be sure to get that all well-maintained before you enter this scary haunt.

I visited Xfinity Arena for a Don Toliver concert, and for my first time at the venue, I had a…read morereally good experience overall! Getting around inside the arena was pretty straightforward. I took an Uber from my hotel, so unfortunately I don't have my usual parking report this time. There were several food options throughout the arena. As expected with most arenas and stadiums, prices were definitely on the higher side. I grabbed a slice of pizza and also ordered one of the specialty cocktails that went along with the concert theme--a Courvoisier lemonade. You could choose between a single for $18.99 or a double for $27.99. I went with the single, and let me just say... I probably should've grabbed a little more food with it because that drink was STRONG. Now, let's talk about my seat because I know this is something I always want to know when visiting a venue for the first time! I was in Section 107, Row 18, Seat 1, and my view was quite literally perfect. You can see the pictures for reference, but I was extremely happy with where I sat. Being in Seat 1 meant I was right next to the foot traffic entering and exiting the section, but honestly, that didn't bother me at all. I'll take an aisle seat any day because I love not having to climb over people whenever I need to get up! Even though I had a great seat fairly close to the action, the layout also gave me the impression that there are plenty of other sections where you'd still have a good view of the event. Obviously every seat will be a little different, but the arena felt like it offered pretty solid sightlines overall. My only real critique came after the concert. The Uber/taxi pickup situation could definitely use a little more organization. When we exited, there was essentially a huge crowd of people trying to figure out where to go, and taxis and rideshares weren't able to pull directly up to the arena. I ended up having to walk farther down the block for pickup. Was it the end of the world? Not at all. But after a late concert--especially when you're visiting from out of town and aren't familiar with the area--I would've appreciated a clearly designated and organized rideshare/taxi pickup area closer to the venue. Aside from that, I really enjoyed my first experience here. I'd absolutely return for another event, and since this is also where the 76ers play, I'd love to come back for a game and experience the arena in a completely different setting!

Room for improvement…read more Let's start with the bad. 1) Even with prepaid parking it is a shitshow. They didn't have parking availability at the event so I opted to park across the street in the Citizens Bank Parking Lot. The individuals who are directing traffic and letting you in do not do a great job. They were waving me to go around when that was not correct at all, luckily I pulled a U turn and had my car half way in the lot when he said pull in. He was legit trying to get me lost after I paid for reserve parking in that designated lot. 2)Went to Chickie's and Pete's ordered one basket of tenders with fries, another order of fries, and three cokes. Bill came to $78, when I asked for a breakdown, the cashier gave me a look like I had three heads and said they don't do that and handed my a receipt just with the total charge on it. The Venue itself presents well, and we had seats in section 113 center which made my first WWE event a very pleasurable experience. Now should I mention that three tickets at this level total almost $1,000? A very expensive night out to go to most events at the Xfinity Mobile Area. You do have Xfinity Live! within a few blocks with big screens and good eats, I would probably opt to watch events at Xfinity Live instead but if you're jonesing to see the event in person be sure to save up for the event. As always people SYOY!!!

Second time I visited was last week. I paid extra to come to the Cherry Hill AMC because I was taking my children to see the Minions movie and wanted the 3D experience (which the AMC Fashion District in center city where we live didn't offer). I paid a premium for the 3D tickets and reserved our seats only to show up and realize they're the OLD style seats. What? I didn't realize the AMC in Cherry Hill wasn't completely renovated and that the new, recline seats are only in some of its theater's rooms. We made the most of it but the old seats are so uncomfortable and it took some of the enjoyment away. Anyway, beware when booking if this is also important to you!

Fall Festival Season can be overwhelming, so many beers to drink outside happening on the same day!…read moreHere's the case for choosing this Fest: 1. Cancel out all the beers you're going to drink with an (untimed) 5K run (literally) by the Fishtown Beer Runners starting at 12. $25 gets you a free tshirt, plastic cup, tote bag, free water, and most importantly, 2 drink tickets (Thanks for the registration Yelp!)! This year's course had a mural challenge where you could win a pint glass for posting 5 pictures. The course is (lightly) marked, and with the help of directing volunteers at each turn, only a few people got lost! The course runs through regular streets and is not blocked off so watch out for cars, pedestrians, dog poop, etc. 2. Super kid friendly - there's hula hoops, a bouncy castle, live music, face painters, crafts, and other games! 3. Drinks - lots of local beer options, which is great. No cocktails or wine, but there was a cider! tall tables for you to enjoy your beverages. 4. Food - not a ton of options (3-4 trucks- Biscuit's Biscuits, Kung Fu Hoagie, Cow and the Curd and a few others), but a nice seating area with picnic tables. 5. Vendors - not too crowded, so lots of space to walk around and enter contests! With less people you have higher chances of winning! I won a gift card basket with gift cards from uber, netflix, and wine and spirits! They also had some cool Fishtown shirts, and the usual cool jewelry, local realtors, etc. 6. Great views of the river and the Ben Franklin Bridge!

What a cute little festival in a nice open space! I won a bib for the 5K through a Yelp contest…read more(thanks Yelp!) and made my way down to the 2015 festival. The 5K was a fun run and super laid back. It was a nice way to tour Fishtown, a neighborhood I usually don't frequent. After the run, I was able to claim my run swag bag and tickets into the beer tent. The beer tent wasn't huge but it had a solid representation of 2nd Story Brewing, Evil Genius, Do Good (a new brewery local to Port Richmond), Fat Tire, St Benjamin, Philadelphia Brewing Company, Neshaminy Creek and Kurant Cider. It was a bit of a bummer you had to keep the beer within the beer tent and couldn't walk the grounds though. Outside of the beer tent, there were about 5-6 food trucks which included Scratch Biscuits, Mom-Mom's, Philly Fry and a few others. I think my favorite part of the entire event was their pet tent area. They had several local shelters set up shop to promote their rescue organizations. They even brought some adoptable dogs and cats to the event. I thought I knew I was pretty well versed in Philly's local rescue organizations, but I learned about a few new ones like City of Elderly Love and Citizens for a No-Kill Philadelphia. In addition to all of the rescue pups, a lot of festival-goers brought their own dogs. It was adorable city! There were also a few rows of some great craft vendors and services. And did I mention the live music? A stage was set up with acts brought in through WXPN near the beer tent. All of this happened in the huge Penn Treaty Park. I'm definitely adding the Rivercity Festival to my list of festivals to attend again in the future.
