8 Signs You Learned To Drink in Philly
We Philadelphians know great junk food and love to party (an epic combination). Give us a football game or a Mummers Parade and we’ll be chugging drinks like there’s no tomorrow. Here are eight signs you too learned to drink in Philly.
1. You’re a pro at tailgating Philly sports events.

And you’d do it again.

It’s a tourist move but you are the Italian Stallion. Drago isn’t ready for this.

Unless you’re a sober passenger going back home after work, then it’s annoying.
7. You know Philly foods are always better with alcohol.

Cheesesteaks, soft pretzels, crab fries, pizza, etc. All Philly food is post-party food.
8. You’ve been in or have seen a fight involving drunks.

Probably some dude from Jersey or New York getting whooped by somebody in Philly. That or a Cowboys fan.
