We could go on and on about Philadelphia alone. It is the unofficial home to cheese steaks, soft pretzels, water ice and TastyKakes. It’s where the Mummers strut every New Year’s Day. And don’t tell us that Rocky Balboa is fictional—we have the statue and the fighting spirit to prove it.
You want history? Philly was once the capital of the United States. Ben Franklin drank beer, flew kites while pondering the meaning of life and founded the first zoo in America. Did we mention he also did a little printing? Meanwhile, just a few blocks away, sitting on her porch, Betsy Ross poked her fingertips more than a couple of times while sewing the first American flag.
