Just imagine City Hall with a fucking Giants logo on it if they won. Unimaginable. This is an embarrassment for NYC.

Pleased to announce Philly's successful annexation of the city of New York. As part of our redevelopment plan we will be replacing every bodega with a Wawa

You can have Wawa. Sheetz seems to be moving in where Wawas once were. Should be interesting.
Allemaengel t1_j6g1ts7 wrote
I'm in the weird overlap here in the Poconos between a few of the most southeastern Sheetzes and northwesternmost Wawas with a lot of Turkey Hills and independents filling the big gaps in between especially in Carbon County.

The colors of the winning team was going to be on the Empire State Building. NYC isn’t as provincial as Philadelphia. Most Giants fans don’t even live in the city.
ETA: see, even the Empire State Building has jokes about this. https://imgur.com/a/33girAH

I'm not near either of them but still in between them in the middle of nowhere beyond Jim Thorpe, lol.

There is one person on my social media that is upset over this and he’s a cop that lives on Long Island. This is the demographic I’d expect to care, hahaha.

True. The fans of both North Jersey teams should be upset about this happening in the city they think they are a part of.
waits5 t1_j6ghcrd wrote
We just went up to Jim Thorpe about a month ago. It’s a beautiful area and I was surprised that Turkey Hill was an actual store and not just a company that makes milk and ice cream for grocery stores. 🙂 It was actually a great little store.

My favorite thing I saw was they’d have to grease the Empire State Building so Philly fans couldn’t climb it like a trash King Kong.

Amazing, it still manages to suck
Allemaengel t1_j6hff2e wrote
Yeah, I like it here overall but it's a little bit of a commute to work down in Bucks County, lol.
Turkey Hill's not bad for what it is but we could use something, either that or a Wawa or a Sheetz but something at the Turnpike Mahoning Valley exit.

Are they going to need to grease the empire state building now?

I was referring to those Sheetzes along the segment of the Wawa-Sheetz boundary in the eastern part of the state.
Shrewlord t1_j6ihdso wrote
Sure. Wilkes-Barre has Sheetz and Hazelton has Wawa. That's pretty much where the divide is.
waits5 t1_j6ijurd wrote
Oof, that’s a bad commute. I used to have a 90 minute commute each way when I was in Jersey. Long commutes just take it out of you.

The 49ers play in fucking Santa Clara now (I grew up in Philly area but live in sf now). It's like 45 miles away from the closest part of the city and takes an hour to get there in very moderate traffic. It'd be like if the eagles played in Allentown (almost)

That's wild but at least it's the same state and I guess paying the same taxes.

Well sf has its own taxes for city and county, so only kinda. But yeah, if there was another state an hour away they might have gone ahead and moved it there. Different state is too much, I agree

I get what these comparisons are going for but not the same at all lol..ESB is one of the most famous buildings in the world. It has a calendar of lights for different causes almost nightly. They’ve done this for the Eagles before when we went to the bowl in 2017-18. Patriots were celebrated with lights that year also..it’s NYC lol
