Only in Philadelphia

This forum is for talking about non-music-related stuff that the DBT fanbase might be interested in. This is not the place for inside jokes and BS. Take that crap to some other board.

Technically speaking his court case was in Montgomery County PA (where I live) not Philly. But yeah. From a legal viewpoint letting him go was the right decision. He cut a deal with the prosecutor 10 or 20 years ago bc the prosecutor didn't think there was enough evidence to convict. The deal was that Cosby would testify in the civil cases against him in exchange for criminal immunity. So he testified years ago and then the current prosecutor (a neighbor of mine btw) used that testimony against him. I was actually surprised they let the trial go fwd in the first place. But still, what a fucking piece of shit. Also thanks for bringing this thread back. :lol:

And while I'm soap-boxing, why the fuck is the National Anthem/God Bless America/etc played before/during sporting events anyway. I'm there to see the action - just start the fucking game!
this is the correct answer.

esp true for the NHL, where the majority of the teams are in the US and the majority of the players weren't born there.

Should it bother me as much as it does that I used the wrong punctuation mark over 2 years ago?

Given there aren't a lot of all-night Cheesesteak places, this one checks more than one "Only in Philly" box:

Customer Shot to Death Outside South Philly's Pat's Steaks

No - I can't keep up with all the new breweries. Seems like every neighborhood has one or two. I'm sure it's good - they all are.

Quick little getaway before the season. Flying into Philly Monday and staying in Center City overnight. Driving down to Dewey Beach in Delaware for a couple of days before flying back to CT Thursday morning.

Sounds great. You should check in with emandrisdad, he goes to Dewey all the time and he knows the beer scene there as good as anyone.

Nice. Some guy on the GBV board has lived there for 15+ years and gave me a very thorough lay of the land.

Enjoy your visit, and be sure to get one from Pat's and one from Geno's (across the street) for the mini-cheesesteak-crawl...

I have it on good authority that the fried onions (e.g., a cheesesteak "wit") help propel one towards their desired or necessary destination... also, when consumed after dusk and digested during sleep with a full gullet of beer, they create a distinct aroma...

I've heard that (formerly) Chink's is much better than either Pat's or Geno's.

I 100% agree… Pat’s and Geno’s aren’t even top-10 on my list, but they are part of the “visit Philly” experience

For anyone confused about the (formerly) part:
