As #AoIR2023 is less than a month away, if folks haven't come across @adrishaw's brilliant and super detailed Philadelphia Guide, I could not recommend reading it more: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1F3LsNRhOV63abFUlGJoritzVR18xw-oe9PYFtK85DDs/edit

Transport? Transfers? Tipping? Tourism? Taboos? Adrienne addresses it all, and that's just the things I could easily alliterate! ;)

@tama @adrishaw Also worth noting for #AoIR2023 participants is that the local organising committee have kindly arranged for the national men's teams of Mexico and Germany to play a friendly at Lincoln Financial Field on the evening of 17 Oct. (the day before the preconferences). We're talking proper round-ball football here, obvs. ⚽🇲🇽🇩🇪⚽
Now that's the kind of social programme I could get used to. Tickets: https://www.ticketmaster.com/mexico-vs-germany-philadelphia-pennsylvania-10-17-2023/event/02005EF3C1057F99
