New to Philly (well, Elkins Park) and want to meet you!

Hi, I'm new here (to Philly, I've been on Metafilter for ages) and I don't know anyone. Any locals want to meet up, maybe at a place with good outdoor seating? Before the weather gets too cold? Weekends are generally good for me. [more inside]

Philly MeFite Social

I haven't seen any meetups proposed for Philadelphia, so I'm wondering if there is an active enough contingent there to warrant putting one together. Philly MeFites, are you there?

Philly Trivia Night Anyone?

Once upon a time Mefites played quizzo together... let's do it again! Day / time / location suggestions are open (I'd prefer not Wednesdays unless that messes with everyone else's availability). I'll come up with some ideas too!

Ok, let's schedule this! Tuesday, March 15th, at 7pm, at Smith's Restaurant and Bar at 39 S 19th St, Philadelphia, PA 19103. I don't know how crowded it gets, so we should try to get there a little early to grab a table. Go Team Metafilter!
