Fans of the Philadelphia Flyers and Philadelphia 76ers poured into Comcast Center Plaza on Tuesday afternoon, turning the space into a celebration of postseason basketball and hockey dreams.
The joint pep rally was hosted by both teams, a special crossover moment that displayed just how much postseason energy has taken over Philly. The pep rally had appearances from the Sixers mascot, Franklin, the Flyers Ice Team and, of course, Gritty, who helped entertain the crowd with his usual blend of chaos and charm.
Fans took part in games, giveaways, and contests scattered throughout the plaza. The atmosphere felt like a street festival, with families, longtime season ticket holders, and curious passersby all joining the fun.
