FIFA frustrations: Residents near Fan Fest concerned; bars waiting on approval to stay open late

The countdown to the World Cup is on, and final preparations are underway across the city of Philadelphia.

At Lemon Hill in Fairmount Park, where the FIFA Fan Fest is set to take place, volunteers are gearing up for the festival's opening day on Thursday. It will run for 39 days, from June 11 to July 19.

Even though it hasn't started yet, some people living near Lemon Hill are concerned about the road closures and increased traffic the festival has already caused throughout their neighborhood.
