I USED TO TAKE MY NEPHEW AND GODSON TO WEST CHESTER BACK IN THE DAY. I'VE NEVER BEEN TO LINC FOR PRACTICE, BUT I'M THINKIN IT WOULD BE A GOOD EXPERIENCE FOR THEM.
WEST CHESTER WAS ACTUALLY PRETTY COOL FOR THE KIDS WATCHING THEM TRYING TO GET REGGIE OR CUNNINGHAM'S AUTOGRAPH WAS HOOT, SO MANY KIDS, THEY GOT SWARMED. GOOD MEMORIES FOR THEM, ME TOO.Last edited by DEERSPINE GUY; 07-18-2018, 09:15 AM."LIFE IS FULL OF 4TH AND 1 DECISIONS, CHOOSE YOUR NEXT CROSSROADS WISELY.Comment

The 4 year old won't likely give a shit about anything but ice cream and popcorn ... the 8 year old might be more into it due to a more advanced interest in football ... however, it was a sucky borefest the only time I went with my son (he was in high school at the time)
In contrast, Lehigh was a pisser for three reasons ... you could go to TC in the day and minor league baseball in Bethlehem or Reading at night ... there was hitting in practice ... you could get closer to the field.Obscenity is the last refuge of an inarticulate motherfucker.Comment

I was able to snag 6 for myself my kids and my brother and his. They're free so if its boring I won't feel bad about leaving (or spending money on other stuff).Originally posted by DEERSPINE GUY View PostIf you’re not from here, you don’t understand it.

I can't imagine it compares to the Lehigh (or even West Chester) experience. Training camp was where the Eagles sunk into my son's soul. Watching the players in a setting apart from the stadium, the lights, and the usual trappings of the game made it more real. And being able to actually chat with players and get their autographs...it was an experience made for kids (of all ages).
The carnival was pretty cool, too. I'm not sure why they phased that out, but it was a terrific family event.
If I lived closer, I definitely think it would be great to see what the current camp/practice thing is like, even if the first one is on a Sunday evening. I hope you and the kids have a blast.Comment
