To top off a horrible day, the Phillies blew a lead too.  But we are diehards so we will persevere and continue to tailgate.  It was another fun morning in thee parking lot.  Also, Jason Ott of Marlton, NJ, was the winner of the Byrne Family Trust raffle of two tickets to the Eagles-Redskins game on New Year's Day.  The $1000 Grand Prize raffle will be held on 3 October.
