About Temple University Owls Football vs. Army Black Knights Football

Expect tailgating in the parking lots beforehand, marching bands, and a stadium crowd mixing alumni of both academies with local fans out for a weekday game. Army's visit brings a service-academy atmosphere, with cadets and military traditions woven into the pregame and halftime program. It's a shorter trip for many fans given the day and time, so expect a workday crowd rather than a full weekend takeover.

Where to stay nearby

Camden sits closest to the stadium, just across the water from Philadelphia, and offers a smaller but convenient set of hotels for this one. Philadelphia itself has by far the widest choice, with 138 hotels catalogued and easy access to the stadium complex via public transport and regular game-day traffic routes. Cherry Hill, a bit further out in New Jersey, is a solid fallback with over 50 hotels, useful if the closer towns are booked up for a Friday game. Given the midday Friday kickoff, an overnight stay the night before is likely more practical than a same-day trip.

About Philadelphia Eagles

Philadelphia joined the NFL in 1933, its name and original eagle logo drawn from the Blue Eagle emblem of the National Recovery Administration, a New Deal agency, reflecting the era it was founded in. The Eagles won NFL championships in the pre-Super Bowl era of the 1940s and '60s, then went decades without a title before winning Super Bowl LII after the 2017 season, upsetting Bill Belichick's Patriots with a trick-play touchdown pass thrown by quarterback Nick Foles.

Philadelphia added a second Super Bowl after the 2024 season, again beating Kansas City in the title game. The Eagles' notoriously passionate, demanding fanbase is one of the most discussed in all of American sport.

Philadelphia Eagles records & quirks

Philadelphia beat New England 41-33 in Super Bowl LII, capped by the trick-play 'Philly Special' touchdown catch.
Foles became the first quarterback ever to catch a touchdown pass in a Super Bowl.
The Eagles' 1960 title, a 17-13 win over Green Bay at Franklin Field, was their last before the Super Bowl era.
