Anyone else attending the event at the Philly Zoo next weekend? I'm thinking of going on Friday. Saturday and Sunday there's a Boo at the Zoo event too with kids in Halloween costumes and such, so Friday is the only day I'd consider going. I'm a bit miffed that it requires a $27 admission and another $19 to park, but I can afford it and I really want to see a Slate in person. Nothing against the zoo. I've been. It's great. America's first zoo. But I'd prefer to see the Slate, skip the zoo, and save the cash.

I'd like to go but not for that kinda money. I thought about asking my brother and sister in laws if they would ike to take my little niece to the zoo, lol. But, it will still cost me $78 for me and my wife just to see the truck

Thanks for the heads up about the cost of the zoo and parking. Yeah that's a no-go. I was thinking of going, but that would cost more than the train ticket from Harrisburg. I'm sure the zoo is a good cause and needs the money for overhead, but I was just going to go see the truck.
