So I just got off the phone with John Francis Bongiovi, Jr. and Bret Munsey, the owner and head coach of the ArenaBowl Champion Philadelphia Soul.
First
impression: JBJ has been asked one too many snarky questions in his
life, the man seemed almost cranky despite the recent chip (I suppose
it didn’t help that the first question he was asked was something along
the lines of “do you think anyone cares about your football team?”) That
said, we’ll have a much fuller Q&A out eventually but for now the
important details – namely where is this free concert we keep hearing
about?
First of all there is a Rally for the Soul Championship Thursday
at City Hall. It is scheduled to take place at 3, at which point Mayor
Nutter will congratulate the champs and they’ll march around the city
for passerbys everywhere to cheer.
As for the concert he
promised, he says that there is no way he can get it together for
Thursday but that he’s a man of his word and we should look for the
band to get together for the banner raising, ring ceremony and pep
rally early next year.
Details as they emerge, and hopefully one ArenaBowl recap littered with JBJ tasteless references and puns.
