Counterpoint: I have lived in Centre County for 30 years now and haven't heard it once.
Growing up in the southwest corner of the state I heard "ruff" instead of "roof" and "wuff" instead of "wolf." We were a bit too removed from Pittsburgh for "yinz" so we said "you-all" (but never "yawl" for some reason).
