We are getting scared this Spring!  The world’s first Star Wars-themed haunted house to debut in Philadelphia this Spring.  Lincoln Mill Haunted House presents “May the 4th Corrupt You”, a brand new Star Wars-inspired haunted house.

Star Wars Scaring You This Spring

Will the fourth be with you or will it corrupt you?  This is for the massive and passionate fan base who loves celebrating May 4th.

“The Star Wars story and characters are so strong and have inspired me when writing the Lincoln Mill story.  I always saw our main villain, Viktor Kane, as having many similarities to Darth Vader, one of the greatest villains of all time.”

“In Star Wars, there is a constant clash between good and evil and the evil force is constantly striving to spread its influence.  At the Lincoln Mill, Viktor Kane and his allies were corrupted by an evil force in the 1930s which led them to the dark side.”

Star Wars Fans This Is For You

During the exclusive outing, guests will venture through the hidden chamber that has been changed to ultraviolet light, giving the attraction a cosmic feel. The soundtrack has also been changed featuring cinematic music but with a dark, horror twist.  The character make-up and costuming will also be unique for this event featuring Sith-inspired make-up,  black Sith robes, and more!

Lincoln Mill is located on Main Street Manayunk and is within a short walking distance of many great restaurants and bars.  It’s a perfect reason to plan a fun night out – eating, drinking, and getting scared.  Plus it’s fun for family, friends, or even a solo trip.

Tickets are on sale now and selling fast at www.lincolnmillhaunt.com for $32 each and $55 for VIP tickets.

The 11 Greatest Moments In Lincoln Financial Field History

Last season, we celebrated the 20th birthday of Lincoln Financial Field. The Eagles played their first game there in August of 2023. Since then, it has been their home, and it has hosted some of the best years in Eagles history.

They have made it to 5 NFC Championship games while playing at Lincoln Financial Field. 4 of those were actually played there, including 3 wins. The majority of the Andy Reid era took place at the Linc. And obviously their  first and only Super Bowl came while they called it their home. But what are the greatest moments at the Linc?

Moments That Were Not Eligible

It is tougher for the Linc than it was for Citizens Bank Park, because obviously the Super Bowl moments aren’t eligible. They didn’t take place at the Linc. So there is no Malcom Jenkins hit on Brandin Cooks, no Zach Ertz go-ahead TD, no Brandon Graham strip sack, and no Philly Special.

If I was making my all time Eagles moments, all of those would make the list, and you could throw in the Corey Clement toe tap TD in there too.

Also several of my favorite Eagles moments from this era took place in a NJ swamp, that the Giants pretend is part of New York.

But there are MANY iconic moments that took place at the Linc. Like I said, 4 NFC Championship games were hosted at the Linc. In those Andy Reid years, a lot of their playoff games in general were played here. There is a lot of great moments to pick from. But which are the best? In honor of the Eagles getting ready to make it 21 years at the Linc, lets go through the best moments on that field.

It should also be said that not everything on this list is an Eagles moment. The vast majority of those moments are. Lincoln Financial Field has hosted College Football Games, Soccer Matches, outdoor Hockey games, and most recently, WrestleMania. There have been iconic moments at the Linc that have nothing to do with the Eagles. 3 of them made this list.

Here are the 11 Greatest Moments In The History Of Lincoln Financial Field:

  • 11) Temple Beats Penn State For The First Time in 74 years

    Had to give Temple some love on this list. Things have not gone well for them since this moment. But at the time, it was huge for the program. I am not even a Temple fan, but I can appreciate how massive it was for Temple to take out Penn State like they did.

    It was the 1st time they beat Penn State since 1941. That game took place two months before the United States entered WW2.

    It was PJ Walker’s 1 yard TD that put them over the top late in the 3rd quarter. But they would go on to score 10 more points to make it a convincing 27-10 win. They also sacked Christian Hackenberg a staggering 11 times.

  • 10) Joselio Hanson 96 yard Fumble Return

    I knew I neeeded something from this absolute rout of the Cowboys. When you beat the Cowboys 44-6, to get to the playoffs, it is worthy of praise. The question was which moment?

    Chris Clemons fumble return? One of David Akers 500 field goals in that game? The McNabb TD?

    I went with Hanson, partly because of the play Brian Dawkins made to set it up.

  • 9) Jake Elliott 61-yard FG

    The moment that started the career of Jake Elliott for the Eagles. He has gone on to hit several more clutch FGs. The one in the rain that forced OT vs the Bills this year was great too. But this is the one people are going to remember.

    A record-breaking FG to get a walk off win. If he misses that they might wind up losing in OT. If they lose that, they don’t end up with the number 1 overall seed, and maybe they don’t make it to the Super Bowl.

    But he did make it. And it was the start of a magical season that finally had us parading down Broad Street.

  • 8) Claude Giroux OT Goal Secures The Win Over The Penguins

    Yes, the Flyers also made the list. They took on the Penguins at the Linc in a 2019 Stadium Series game. And it was one for the ages.

    The Penguins took a 3-1 lead. But the flyers roared back, eventually forcing OT. That is when Claude Giroux played hero. He skated through 2 defenders, and snuck one past Matt Murray, to complete the comeback win.

    Beating the Penguins is always a treat. Beating them like that? It is worthy of this list. The fact it was raining only makes it cooler.

  • 7) Cody Rhodes Finishes The Story

    Why would I put a non-Eagles moment this high on the list? Because it was awesome. Cody Rhodes getting the Championship belt was a massive moment in Pro Wrestling history. Especially with all the wildness that led up to it.

    John Cena showing up to save Cody. The Rock showing up to take out Cena, and the The Undertaker showing up to chokeslam The Rock? It was amazing television.

    I am not even that big of a Wrestling fan. But it had me getting hyped from my couch as I watched from home. WrestleMania being in Philly was such a great thing for the city, and we really showed how special this city can be. It culminating with this, was a special moment.

  • 6) LeSean McCoy Breaks Steve Van Buren’s Record In The Snow

    In terms of regular season games, the Snow Bowl is up there with my all time favorites. Mostly because of LeSean McCoy’s record breaking performance. He ran all over the Lions for 217 yards. Breaking an Eagles record that had stood since 1949. It is a performance no one will forget anytime soon.

  • 5) Julio Jones Drops Potential Game Winning TD

    The Eagles-Falcons Divisional Round game was full of great moments. The Flea Flicker, the catch off of Keanu Neal’s knee. But for me, the best moment was the last play of the game.

    At this time, if you had to pick any WR to catch this pass, it would have been Julio Jones. But he couldn’t make the catch. If he does, the Eagles still wouldn’t have a Super Bowl trophy. But because he dropped it, the Eagles won that game, and went on to win it all.

  • 4) Haason Reddick Knocks Brock Purdy Out Of The Game

    You never want to see anyone get hurt. But you can’t deny the impact Reddick’s multiple hits on Brock Purdy had on that NFC Championship game. The 49ers were never able to get anything going the rest of the game. And it set the Eagles offense up to get going a bit too.

    Would they have won if Purdy stayed in the game? Who knows? The 49ers players and fans whining about it sure seem to think that the only reason the Eagles won is Purdy getting hurt. But Reddick dominating is why it happened. Reddick turned the game on its head, and set the tone for them to get to the Super Bowl.

  • 3) Brian Dawkin’s Hit On Crumpler

    The NFC Championship wasn’t exactly full of great moments. The blistering cold weather kept the scoring very low. But there is one unforgettable moment from that game. B Dawk’s hit on Alge Crumpler.

    Crumpler to his credit held onto the ball. But it set a tone for the game.

    “For me it’s not the hardest hit I’ve ever had but I think it’s the most (notorious) hit I’ve ever had. And again I think it’s because of where it was, in the NFC Championship Game in Philadelphia.”- Brian Dawkins

  • 2) 4th and 26

    This might be the most impressive individual moment in Lincoln Financial Field history. McNabb keeping the play alive as long as he could, to unleash a rocket down the field, and then for Freddie Mitchell of all people to make the play? It is iconic.

    The relationship between McNabb and Eagles fans is complicated. But he deserves tons of love just for that moment alone. it helped get them to their 3rd straight NFC Championship Game. And while they would end up being embarrassed by the Panthers, this moment is still one of the best in Eagles history.

  • 1) Patrick Robinson Pick 6 Against The Vikings

    To me, this can’t be beaten. Is that influenced by them going on to win it all? Absolutely. None of these other moments set us up for a parade. And since we cant count anything from the Super Bowl itself, this one takes the cake.

    Are there moments more impressive? Sure. Is it weird that Patrick Robinson of all people takes the number 1 spot? Yes. But for me, this is the most memorable moment at the Linc.
