So much for being the City of Brotherly Love. According to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, T.J. McConnell, you know, Philadelphia 76ers point guard T.J. McConnell recently went with a small group, which included his father, family members and a couple of friends, to a bar near the 76ers' home arena, the Wells Fargo Center, after his team's game. The establishment had a deal which would forgo a $10 cover charge as long as they presented a Sixers ticket. 

When T.J. showed up, a worker at the door stopped him in his tracks. 

Per Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

“He played,” said Tim McConnell, pointing at his son.
