It's some really great hoops. The Palestra should be on any hoop's fan's short list of places to visit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watched the triple headers on TV as a kid growing up but never live. Have been passed it a few times when in PHL and was in Franklin Field.

But I believe the size of the arena was a concern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Penn has not yet released their hoops schedule, but there is a very real possibility that they will have a home game on 11/17 at the Palestra. A must see to believe. 90 minutes south on 95 the Ravens host the Bengals on 11/18. Wouldn't it be interesting if Mr. Flowers made the Bengals 53 man roster. Go Bulls! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depending on times of the games I may try to get to the Palestra. Flying home Sunday so won't see the Ravens and really don't have much interest in them anyway.
