"The Sixers will play New York on that very same floor in Game 3 of their Eastern Conference semifinal series that night; bumping the concert up or back a night won't work, either, because the Flyers are set to play Carolina in Games 3 and 4 of their Eastern Conference semi Thursday and Saturday."
"Bruce still draws folks his own age, enough to do arena tours at the entirely coincidental age of 76. And he remains a sufficiently milky cow, audience-wise, that he doesn't make room for mere sports teams as a general rule."
"Now, o you amalgamated grandparents of Satan's America, Bruce Springsteen is the one getting bumped."
The Philadelphia 76ers and Flyers are experiencing scheduling conflicts due to Bruce Springsteen's concert at Xfinity Mobile Arena. After defeating the Celtics, the Sixers will play the Knicks on the same night as the concert. The Flyers also have games scheduled, complicating the situation further. The article humorously notes that even the teams' owners and players are included in the sentiment of 'nobody believed in us.' Bruce Springsteen, despite being an older act, continues to draw significant crowds, leading to the sports teams needing to adjust their schedules around his performance.
