Sons of Ben is the Fan Club of Philly MLS 2010. They put a News letter out every other week. Later Noid!Sorry for the large delay, avid 'nackophile! Here's fresh SoB news!
Harrisburg trip 8/2
We're going back out to Harrisburg to see the City Islanders take on the Bermuda Hogges. The game starts at 7:05 on City Island. Be sure to ask for tickets in the SoB section. Pre-match festivities are at Molly Brannigan's on 2nd and Walnut, starting around 5 or so, with the march across the bridge at 6:30. If you're planning on going, please fill this form out so we know about how many to expect:

Philly MLS event 8.23
This is not an SoB event, but we've been invited to tag along. The team is inviting all the season ticket holders to DC on the 23rd to see United take on Colorado. Tickets and transportation will be on your own. Season ticket holders are supposed to hear something from the team soon.
Save the date: Oct. 11
We're planning a big road trip to RFK on 10/11 to see the US National team take on Cuba in World Cup qualifying action. Look for more details as the date gets closer.
Finally, everyone who paid for a scarf back in February/March should definitely have gotten it by now. If you didn't, please respond and we'll get it resolved as soon as possible. Thanks again to everyone for their patience...we were simply overwhelmed by the sheer quantity of orders, and are looking at how to better handle this in the future.
Any other questions, please reply as well.
