Philadelphia Facts

Lynnewood Hall is a 110-room palace outside Philadelphia, closed to the public for more than 80 years. It was built for the Widener family. A father and son, George and Harry, boarded the Titanic in 1912 and never came home. Inside were more than 2,000 artworks that later helped found the National Gallery of Art. This fall, for the first time in generations, the doors open. You can walk in.

Jalen Hurts kept hearing the same story. Philadelphia schools were sending kids home early because classrooms were too hot. So the Eagles quarterback paid to install air conditioning in ten schools himself. More than 300 units later, over 5,000 students and staff have cool classrooms. Now every touchdown he scores pays for more.

A foul ball fell into the Philadelphia bleachers in 1923. Robert Cotter, age 11, caught it and pocketed it. Back then the ball belonged to the Phillies, so they pressed charges. He spent the night in a cell. Next morning a judge freed him, refusing to brand a boy a thief over a $1.50 ball. It was the first court ruling that a fan could keep one. Every foul ball in the seats tonight is yours.
