How much attendance do these events normally get? I was JUST in Philly last weekend, but if there is a decent regular showing, then I'll make the trek again.

The last one got 40ish. Not as large as Jupiter, but 6 rounds almost always, with 7 at the first championship.

[Rock Lee]

Sounds worth the trip. I'll try to get a car from CT going.

[mishima_kazuya]

I guess I should've mentioned this earlier to Philadelphia residents, but use this information for next time.

If you are near the blue line(market-frankfurt subway line), you can take it to 8th street and transfer over to the PATCO line to New Jersey. Take the PATCO to Westmont station and you'll be a 5-10 minute walk from Top Deck Games.

If you live near a trolley in Philly, you can take it to 30th street station and get a free exchange onto the blue line, fyi.

[Tammit67]
