How the Flyers connect fathers and sons will be theme of 'The Goldbergs'

If you’ve ever watched The Goldbergs, the popular ABC sitcom, you know it has a distinct Philadelphia flavor and frequently has the actors wearing T-shirts or jerseys that celebrate the city’s sports teams.

Especially the Flyers.

The show is based on executive producer Adam F. Goldberg’s experiences of growing up in Jenkintown in the 1980s.

On Wednesday, the show will have a Flyers segment that includes a game at the Spectrum. In the episode, young Adam Goldberg (played by Sean Giambrone) attends his first Flyers game and his dad is by his side.
