Philadelphia is hands down one of the most fascinating, artistic, historical and best cities in our great nation. It’s not super big, and Philly is definitely the underdog, but we love every part of it. Here are 25 things that you would never catch anyone from Philadelphia ever saying.
1. This is NOT our year
For a championship of course, but uh, yes it is. Every year is our year. One day we’ll be right.
2. Let’s go to Sheetz
Does this even need an explanation?
3. Wow I really hope the Giants win on Sunday, I love them!
You’d have to be delusional.
4. I’ve never been to the Liberty Bell
We've all seen it, and let me tell you, it's pretty cool.
5. Let’s take 76, there won’t be any traffic!
Only in your wildest dreams.
6. GO METS!!!!!!!!
If you wanted them to win the World Series, are you even a Phillies fan?
7. Let’s go to the Jersey beach
You mean let’s go down the shore, right?
8. I’ve never had a good cheesesteak
Cheesesteaks are our staple, and they will never let you down.
9. I don’t know what a mummer is
It's our New Years Day parade, where people dress up and wear masks and entertain the city.
10. I hope the Rangers win the Stanley cup this year
No you don't.
11. What’s water ice? You mean a glass of ice water?
No, we mean water ice. Like your version of Italian Ice, but better.
12. Rocky is the worst movie I’ve ever seen
It's inspiration, moving, and hands down a fan favorite. We even have a rocky statue....
13. I have a crush on Tony Romo
Well, that makes one of us.
14. Security at the airport is going to be quick
Yeah, okay.
15. There’s no Yuengling here
Yuengling, being brewed in our great State, is apart of every party in the area.
16. Chickies and Pete's crab fries suck
You're probably just lying to yourself at this point.
17. I hate the Philly Phanatic
Can't call yourself a Phillies fan unless you love the Phanatic. They're a package.
18. I’m going to eat a sub for lunch
A sub is what replaced your teacher when you were sick in grade school. Hoagies are the real deal.
19. What does jawn mean?
Anything and everything.
20. Who is Hurricane Schwartz?
Only our favorite bow tie bearing weather man.
21. Wawa is dumb, why would you eat at a gas station?
Wawa is actually a magical, life-changing experience. Once you go Wawa, you will never be the same.
22. Schuylkill? What?
It's a river, and a highway and I promise it's a real thing.
23. Tasty cakes aren’t good
Actually, Butterscotch Krimpets are too good to be true
24. I don’t know the Fresh Prince of Bel Air theme song
In West Philadelphia (and surrounding suburbs) you darn sure weren’t born and raised
25. What are Jimmies?
What you call sprinkles, but better.
