Meet Sports Legends at The Philly Show, America's Premier Memorabilia Event

The Philly Show, a renowned sports memorabilia event, holds the distinction of being the nation's longest-running show in its category since its inception in 1975. Celebrating over 40 years, it's acclaimed as one of the top shows for vintage sports cards and memorabilia in the United States. The show boasts more than 200 dealer booths, each measuring 10 x 10, and showcases a wide array of sports collectibles from both the vintage era and modern times.

A unique aspect of The Philly Show is the presence of over 20 professional athletes from various sports, along with celebrities, who are available for autograph signings, personal photo opportunities, and meet and greets. This feature adds an interactive and personal dimension to the event, drawing fans and collectors alike.

The Philly Show is known for being family-friendly, welcoming children 10 and under free of charge with a paid adult admission. Adding to the appeal, the event frequently offers at least one free autograph guest, and sometimes up to three, at each of its gatherings.

Held three times a year—in early March, late September, and early December—The Philly Show continues to be a celebrated event for sports enthusiasts and memorabilia collectors. It’s an opportunity not just to appreciate sports history, but also to create personal memories with sports legends and celebrities.

The event will be held this weekend in Oaks PA at the Philly Expo Center.

Eagles' Week 15 Game Against Seahawks Moved to Monday in
NFL Schedule Shake-Up

EAGLES

The NFL has recently altered the schedule for the Philadelphia Eagles, moving their Week 15 game against the Seattle Seahawks from Sunday to Monday night. This marks the first instance of a game being rescheduled to a Monday since the NFL introduced the flexibility in its scheduling policies.

Fans who have purchased tickets for the game at Lumen Field will still be able to use them for the rescheduled match on December 18, as confirmed by the Seahawks organization. Additionally, all mobile tickets will be automatically updated to reflect the new date and time.

In a related schedule change, the Kansas City Chiefs, who were originally set to play the New England Patriots on that Monday, will now face them on Sunday, December 17, at 1 p.m. This adjustment has been welcomed by some Eagles players, as it allows for additional rest following their significant Week 14 game against the Dallas Cowboys.

Flyers' Comeback Falls Short in
Intense Overtime Battle with Devils

Flyers

The New Jersey Devils secured a thrilling 4-3 overtime win against the Philadelphia Flyers, highlighted by Luke Hughes' quick overtime goal. Alexander Holtz, Jack Hughes, and Tyler Toffoli also scored for the Devils. The Flyers fought back from a 3-1 deficit with goals from Sean Walker and Tyson Foerster, but it wasn't enough to clinch a win. Despite their struggles, especially with a weak power play, the Flyers have exceeded expectations this season under coach John Tortorella.
