A visit to Wilson Road in King of Prussia

[Michael Fisher]

During Colonel Forbin narration at Hershey, Trey mentioned King of Prussia.
It was hard to hear what he was saying sometimes, but I distinctly heard
him say "Go to King of Prussia. Go to Wilson Road and go up the hill. When
you get to the top, and you think you're there, keep going, 'cause you're
not." Also, there was something about a rhombus. Now everyone heard
something, its just we heard it slightly different than each other. I'll
have to hear the tape to be 100% sure of anything.
It just happened I was taking my friend Dawn to her 1st Phish show, and she
lives in King of Prussia! The city/town basically revolves around these huge
two shopping malls right next to each other. I had to go check this clue
out, so I went there last night. Directly across the street (Rt. 202) from
the malls is Wilson Road. It is short, around 200 meters long. It has a
slight incline leading up and away from the malls (no hill or mountain) and
just connects Rt. 202 with another road. At the other end of the road, away
from the malls, there is a small playground (no rhombi), an apartment
complex being built (no rhombi here either) and then a cemetary. It was
dark, so I didn't want to go creeping around. I'll have to go back this
weekend and look for a dead Mr. Rhombus or Mr. Wilson. But basically, I
didn't find a thing. I'm beginning to think that Trey had no idea that there
was actually a Wilson Road in KofP when he told the story - he was just
improvising.

don't take this the wrong way, please.....

the whole wilson/rhombus/king of.... is GAMEHENGE.

wilson is the king of .....
and the rhombus has been spoken of before (waterloo
new jersey, ) although, thiis is the biggest rhombus
clue given yet.

however, when I went to mann music center this summer,
i noticed an exit for King of prussia mall!!!!
maybe thre is a Palmer video or something????

whatever

Actually, I think Trey knew exactly what he was talking about. After he said all that about going to KofP and to Wilson Drive, he s=
aid something like, "That's the biggest hint I've ever given"...suggesting that he probably wasn't improvising, but actually gave us=
a clue to (yet another) phish mystery.

I think there's definitely something to this. Let us know what you find out!!!!!!

Does anyone know what state KofP is in???

King of Prussia is in Pennsylvania - yes, there is a Wilson Road, yes Trey
knows what he's talking about. The Rhombus is part of the Gamehendge saga
(check your liner notes for Llama on PoN) and it does exist - the location
was posted once before, but I've forgotten where (somewhere in NJ,
maybe?). Any more clues, anybody?

Peace-

Hey guys just a heads up.. just got back from KoP.. rhombus: confirmed.

[Nick P]

What was King of Prussia like in 1995 in contract to today? Everything is so built up and new now. It reminds me of Denver Tech Center, or the Buckhead section of Atlanta, or the Irvine Spectrum area.

[Loony]

Well, Michael, I will reply here all these many years later. I love that you wrote this question the very first year you took me to my first show at the Mann. One of the cool things about Wilson road is that it is not too far from it, on the other side of the K of M mall, is Goddard Boulevard.

Of course now we all know where the Rhombus is, in Princeton, but back in 1995 most of us had no clue.

I miss the days of Telnet and this usenet group, but like Scott Bernstein told me, it would be silly to Telnet anywhere these days since it's not secure.

How phun would it be to jump back to 1995, but ya know what it is pretty good that we are still seeing the best band in 2019. Here is to More, more and more Phish. And that they should all be In good health for many happy years ahead.
