Maybe your parents are from Philly or maybe you used to live in the City of Brotherly Love. If you relate to this list, chances are you grew up in South Jersey, but have a special attachment to Philadelphia.
1. You think Trenton is in North Jersey.
2. A sub is a vessel that can operate completely underwater. Not a sandwich. Seriously, it is called “Hoagiefest” for a reason.
3. The PATCO is one of your main forms of transportation.
4. Philly soft pretzels are legendary.
5. Wawa isn’t a convenience store. It’s a lifestyle.
6. You drink "wooder."
7. It’s pork roll not Taylor ham.
8. You are filled with a not-so-silent rage when people say they are Yankees or Giants fans (don’t even get me started about Dallas).
9. You don’t question what is in scrapple, and you eat it regardless.
10. Tastykakes were 150 percent better before they were sold (but you still love them anyway).
11. To you, “The City” has more to do with brotherly love than apples.
12. XTU could be considered a high school reunion.
13. You know that if your want to turn left, you usually have to turn right around a jug handle.
14. The majority of your elementary school class trips were to the Liberty Bell, the Franklin institute or the Zoo.
15. You don’t know how to pump gas, and hopefully, will never have to.
16. You know where you were when the Phillies won the World Series in 2008 and most likely skipped school the next day to go to the parade.
17. Cheesesteaks could be considered their own food group, and you get into arguments with your friends about where you can get the best one.
18. Finish the sentence “Fly Eagles Fly. On the ____ __ ______.”
19. You go “down the shore” most weekends as the loyal “shoobie” that you are.
20. When people ask you where you’re from you say you’re from Philly, because it is just easier than explaining where your tiny Jersey hometown is.
