Historical Marker Ahead @historicalmarker.bsky.social · 1h

Anyone in Philly who can tell me whether the historical marker for the 1926 Dempsey-Tunney fight in front of 120,000 in old Municipal (Kennedy) Stadium is still up in Wells Fargo Center? I took this in 2014.

Historical marker at Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia. It reads:

COMMEMORATING THE 25TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE UNFORGETTABLE TEN-ROUND BATTLE FOR THE WORLD'S HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP BETWEEN TWO OF BOXING'S GREATEST CHAMPIONS, JAGK DEMPSEY AND GENE TUNNEY, ON SEPT. 23. 1926, IN PHILADELPHIA'S MUNICIPAL STADIUM.

HERE, BEFORE, THE LARGEST CROWD EVER TO WITNESS A BOXING MATCH, TUNNEY CLAIMED THE CROWN WHICH HE WAS TO WEAR UNTIL HE RETIRED UNDEFEATED TWO YEARS LATER, AND DEMPSEY, IN DEFEAT, EARNED GREATER POPULAR ACCLAIM AS A FIGHTER AND A MAN THAN HE WON IN HIS SEVEN YEARS AS CHAMPION.

CITY OF PHILADELPHIA
FREDRIC R. MANN, Recreation Commissioner
1952

The Lions didn't play well but the real loss is that they didn't show Taylor Swift enough between plays

My daughter has been in the professional world about a year and a half and I was talking to her about how her job is going. She told me she never knew anyone named Brian before and now she knows 8 people named Brian and 2 people named Doug.
