We were there in 2004 to watch an Eagles game. My DH had to be the first one at the door. I think we were there by 8 or 9 AM and the doors opened at 11:00. By that time, there was a long line to get in and it was pretty crowded. It was a lot of fun, especiallly since the Eagles won that day. My DD (28) was also with me so we had a really great time. So if you want to get a table on the day of a big game, I would just say to get there as early as you can. Have a great time!!!
