Interesting that you mention this.  From
http://www.PhillyLinux.org/history.html:

12/1995  Chris Fearnley announces the Philadelphia Linux User's Group
in a Philadelphia Area Computer Society (PACS) Databus article: 

        The Philadelphia Area Linux User's Group (Philly-LUG) is
                                                  ^^^^^^^^^^
        now forming! Meetings will be held every Tuesday evening
        (Beginning December 5) from 7-9 PM at the High Wire Gallery,
        137 N 2nd ST. The Gallery is charging us $10 for the evening
        and the price will be divided among attendants (So if we get 20
        people to attend, the price will be $0.50/person). The group is
        a spin off from PACS' Unix SIG - the exact relationship with
        PACS has yet to be worked out. Thanks to Shemu-ail Ben-Mosh
        (shemuail@netaxs.com) for agreeing to coordinate the meetings
        and for finding a cheap space.
