One tip I would like to give people moving here: check the trash schedule on the streets department website. On holiday weeks, like this one, trash pick-up is delayed a day. It’s important in a dense city like ours that your household trash doesn’t become litter! Also don’t put your recycling in a paper bag! It never turns out well. Get a real plastic bin.

I did it for years. Had a number of co-workers do it too. SEPTA is the correct train to take ha. There's an express train that skips a lot of the delco stops in the morning you want to take. The real question is where you are working in Delaware. Downtown Wilmington is the easiest to get too.

>It's like the Jabronis who live all year to tailgate for Eagles games. You live all year to sit in a parking lot, drink beer and piss/shit in a bucket in a tent?

Lol I agree, and let's be real. It makes more damn sense to do that out in a parking lot than all driving to South Philly's little narrow streets and doing it.

There's multiple compounding things that happen on New Year's Day that makes it a generally bad day for regular residents.

  1. No parking enforcement because of the holiday
  2. Delco/Bensalem/S. Jersey "real philadelphian" mummers drive into the city with their big SUVs and just park across the crosswalks everywhere in South Philly
  3. They get out of their suburban tanks and get wasted and just throw their trash on the ground and puke everywhere
  4. Then they get back in their cars, drunk drive home, and wake up today to post about crime and how awful Philadelphia is. Rinse and repeat each year.

The shameful part is this: The real mummers were still at the convention center while the bozo losers had already trashed second street. There is two different groups of mummers.

I’m partial to the belief that looking at the skyline is better than being in the skyline, so AKA U city wins for me.

Also, the Four Season's bar is open to the public so you can stay in Ucity and still go to the top of the four seasons.
