Underneath the poker room at the Borgata is a food court. Go downstairs, walk up to the Tony Lukes counter and order a "pork italian". Very +EV.

Just drive to AC, forget the train. Traffic is not as bad as people are making it out to be.

I've been to a lot of cities my opinion is that Philly is the biggest shithole, you may think otherwise and that's fine. Of course there are some nice places to visit downtown but for the most part it's a dump. Highest murder rate in the country.

lol, I love how people are calling Philly a shithole when it is none of the areas downtown that are less desirable to be around.

Yet, you won't find people saying "man LV is a horrible area" because North Las Vegas has some really rough patches.

Care to elaborate,what am I wrong about?

Is it not a shithole or does it not have the highest murder rate in the country?

Seriously, Philly is the biggest shithole I've ever been to. You definitely don't want to be around the wrong places there. The traffic is a nightmare so forget about trying to drive to AC during rush hour.

Stop the presses!! A major metropolis with bad, scary neighborhoods and traffic congestion? Next you'll be telling us that there are lots of pigeons in the parks and lots of white people in the suburbs.

Safest and Most Dangerous Cities

Of course you could be talking about this article which basically twists statistical data to find a negative thing to say.

I've been through scary parts of a couple of big cities and they are all the same. There are some really nice parts of Philly and just like every other big city, there are places you should avoid.

For cities with populations over 1M, Philly had the highest murder rate in 2006. It's a fact. But if you go past the top 10 cities by population, Detroit and Baltimore are going to be higher, I believe.

Regardless, sorry you had an accident while you were there, but there is plenty to like about Philly, and shithole is hyperbole.
