It's America's greatest city. Inventor of Mother's Day, the suspension bridge, chewing gum, and the United States of America. It's full of high culture and low nonsense. It's the beating heart of America. Also it's the best city for breakfast bar none.

I've had a lot of great breakfasts at places like Sabrina's and Honey's and N 3rd. I miss a lot of the food in that city. I haven't lived there in a decade though so I'm sure there are tons of newer places I'm unfamiliar with.

You should eat all the different foods at Reading Terminal and look at the medical oddities at the Mutter Museum.

Its signature drink is a shot of whiskey and a beer. You can get that anywhere in the city for a special price, even nice places. That lets you know Philadelphia is down to clown.

My wife worked at a Blockbuster in Philly when the Eagles went to the superbowl in 2004. They closed for before the game because they knew there'd be a riot regardless of the outcome.

Sounds a bit too like Vancouver to be the greatest American city.

I saw Tom Green standup when I was there and there were a bunch of assholes who wouldn't stop heckling him. There are more potholes than people. I took an Amtrak there and the return trip was delayed 36 hours. I've tried a few cheesesteaks from different places and the only difference between the cheesesteaks in Philly vs everywhere else on earth is that they cost 2x in Philly.
On the plus side I smelled weed smoke everywhere. The Mutter museum loving rules. Overall three stars.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

Yes. We also rioted in the streets when Obama won, and again when we won the World Series... and again when we won the Super Bowl.

I was in Carolina when the Super Bowl went off, and I stayed up refreshing twitter for like 4 hours to watch the riots unfold.

-10,000 people shut down a major highway by marching on it, chanting “gently caress Tom Brady”
-naked people surfing on cars downtown
-World War Z style human waves overtaking the giant iron gate to city hall
-stealing police horses to ride through the city
-knocking over a 30 ft tall highway light post
-police greasing streetlights so people couldn’t climb them
-people climbing police vehicles to get past the greasy parts so they could more easily climb street lights
-flipping a fire truck
-eating horse poop

This is how Philadelphia acts when it’s PROUD and it KNOWS you’re watching.
