Horrifying happenings around the Sports Complex in South Philadelphia are all too common to Philly sports fans (for instance, the Phils final homestand against the Mets).
Starting Saturday, October 1 and for the entire month of October, the Wachovia Spectrum will be even scarier than Shawn Bradley's career with Sixers as it becomes the "region’s largest and most interactive Halloween amusement park"-the Nightmares X-treme Scream Park.
The 80-minute-long haunted walk through the enormous venue features Hollywood-quality set design and special effects, plus professional actors such as Butch "Eddie Munster" Patrick.

Philly EDGE held its first ever Bar Blitz last night. Click here to see photos from places like KatManDu, Michael's, Fluke's Pub, Bailey's, My Brother's Pub and more.

Q-102FM's Diego spent three days living in a dumpster outside Chickie's & Pete's (Roosevelt Blvd.) to help raise money to aid hurricane relief. Check out pictures of him here.

Philly-Brooklyn buzz band Clap Your Hands Say Yeah is offically no longer under the radar. The group is featured inside the latest issue of Rolling Stone (The Hot Issue- with Evangeline Lilly of Lost in sheer undies on the cover!).
CYHSY makes it back to Philly on Oct. 26 to play a hurricane benefit at the TLA. Trust us, get tickets NOW.

Hobbled Eagles kicker David Akers, making like Kirk Gibson in the '88 World Series (or Willis Reed in the 1970 NBA Finals for you old-schoolers) beat the Oakland Raiders with a field goal with only 9 seconds left to play today.
At the beginning of the game, penalties forced Akers, who came into the contest with a hamstring injury to his right (kicking) leg, to kick off several times though he was in obvious pain. It was sorta like that scene in the original version of the football movie "The Longest Yard" in which Burt Reynolds' character Paul Crewe drills Ray Nitschke's character in the crotch with a pass time and again.
