Philadelphia fans have known joy and heartache, anger and exultation in their hundred-plus years of living with professional sports teams. “Philadelphia is the most sophisticated, knowledgeable sports town in America. The fans don’t expect you to win all the time, but they demand you play hard,” says Bill Campbell, the “Dean” of Philadelphia sports, who has broadcast the Phillies, Eagles, 76ers, Warriors and “Big Five” basketball throughout his 50-year career.

Philadelphia is one of the few cities with a professional franchise in all four major league sports, in addition to having a professional men’s indoor soccer team and two professional men’s lacrosse teams. Most of Philadelphia’s pro teams play within a few miles of Center City at the South Philadelphia sport complex, which includes the Wells Fargo Center (basketball and hockey); Lincoln Financial Field (football); Citizens Bank Park (baseball); and the Wachovia Spectrum (soccer).
