No, but Philadelphia might be the greatest wrestling city in the US.

Loud and rowdy is what I remember most. And yes the bathrooms were bad lol.Overall though nothing like an ECW crowd. I went back a few years back for Dreamer's HOH promotion and the place obviously is way different from the 90s but the building still had that magic. LA Times Being from here I may be biased but still Philly to me is the best wrestling city. |

I went a few times and it was miserable and awesome at the same time. Miserable because it was so hot, I never went in the winter but heard it was miserable because it was freezing, but awesome because of the experience.

Time machine comment here, you just took me back. I haven't thought of Luke's probably since then. But yeah Tony Luke's was part of the experience. |
