Yes, Virginia, There Is Such a Thing As a Free Ride

Phillyist has complained before about the pains of public transit commuting in our fine city. While we often ascribe malicious intent to the hulkling behomoth that is our Transportation Authority, they do sometimes try to do something nice for us huddling masses. This Sunday, in celebration of the El's 100th anniversary, you can ride the El for free between the hours of 12 and 5. If you're transferring from another system, you won't even need a transfer. Who says 100 year old transit systems don't have a heart?
