There may have never been worse traffic in Philadelphia than Tuesday night, but for good reason.

All three venues at the Philadelphia sports complex hosted events, and all the parking lots were completely filled for the first time ever, according to CBS Philadelphia.

The Philadelphia Flyers had their home opener on Tuesday, and it was moved up roughly 90 minutes because of the two other events. Nearly 19,000 fans were inside Wells Fargo Center for the Flyers, just shy of a complete sellout.

The home of the Philadelphia Eagles was in use for a soccer match between Mexico and Germany, and 62,824 people attended. The stadium’s capacity is 69,144.

The Philadelphia Phillies hosted Game 2 of the National League championship series, and over 45,000 fans attended. Citizens Bank Park has around 43,000 seats.

JAMES HARDEN SKIPS 76ERS PRACTICE; FRUSTRATIONS GROW AS TRADE HAS NOT MATERIALIZED: REPORT

The Philadelphia Office of Emergency Management posted on X, formerly Twitter, at 8:15 p.m. ET Tuesday to report that exits off I-95 were closed and urged spectators to take public transportation.

SEPTA even offered free rides from 5 p.m. through the night.

It was not the first time all three venues hosted events at the same time, and again, postseason baseball was part of the issue. On Oct. 21 of last year, the Phillies hosted Game 3 of the NLCS while the Smashing Pumpkins performed at Wells Fargo Center and Temple played football at the Linc.

For a short time, all three existing venues and the Spectrum and Veterans Stadium stood at the same time. The Spectrum and the Vet have since been demolished.

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson’s rookie season has officially come to an end after he decided to undergo surgery to repair his throwing shoulder, team owner Jim Irsay announced Wednesday. 

Richardson, who the Colts took fourth overall in this year’s NFL Draft, sprained an AC joint in the shoulder against the Tennessee Titans  Oct. 8. 

After getting multiple opinions on the injury from doctors, team officials and Richardson decided surgery is the best option for the long-term future of the Florida product. 

“After consultation with our medical staff, Anthony and those close to him, it has been determined that he will undergo surgery to repair his injured shoulder, which will end his season,” Irsay posted on X, formerly Twitter.

“Anthony is a competitor, and we know how difficult and disappointing this is for him and our team. We collected several medical opinions and we felt that was the best course of action for his long-term health. We anticipate a full recovery and there is no doubt Anthony has a promising future. 

“In the meantime, I love the fight of this team and I’m excited for the opportunity we have ahead of us. It starts this week with Cleveland.”

Richardson’s long-term was a big factor in the decision. 

“That’s a huge part of it,” head coach Shane Steichen told reporters. “You take the guy fourth overall, [he’s] a tremendous competitor, great player. The longevity of him needs to be at a premium. So, this is the best thing for him moving forward.

“He’ll be engaged, he’ll be in the meetings, he’ll be at practice and he’ll learn this year sitting back and watching and learning. … When you go through tough times, it’ll make you stronger, and this is a tough time for any player,” he said. “[It’s] your rookie year, you want to be out there with his teammates. I know he’s crushed about it, too. But I think it’ll help him make stronger.”

The 3-3 Colts will now turn to QB Gardner Minshew.

“This is Gardner’s team, and we got a ton of confidence in Gardner and his abilities moving forward in this offense,” Steichen said.
