A large crowd of residents gathered in the Chickie’s & Pete’s parking lot on April 5 to speak out against a proposal that would bring a Parx Casino sports book inside the popular restaurant.
More than 100 residents mostly from the Packer Park neighborhood held signs and spoke in strong opposition of having gambling more prominent in their neighborhood.
“I wanted people to know what was going on,” said Barbara Capozzi, president of the Packer Park Neighborhood Association. “The legal process alone is probably not going to stop Pete (Ciarrocchi). It’s Parx (Casino), too. They’re a great organization but it’s all about money to them. This is our neighborhood, and there is no neighborhood in this city that fights harder for ourselves.”

Thousands of Philadelphians waited through the night, some for 10 hours or longer, to be vaccinated by the Black Doctors COVID-19 Consortium.
The group’s clinic was open for just 24 hours, Friday through the night until noon Saturday. By the time the pop-up clinic closed, more than 4,000 people had been vaccinated at the site.
