If you’re not from Philly, you may say, I’m from the Philadelphia area, I’m from the Philly burbs, I’m from just outside of Philly, I live in South Jersey so I basically root for the Philly sports teams, I’m from Millville - you know, Mike Trout’s home town? - yeah so like I root for mainly all the Philly teams cause I’m just 40 mins out from Philly.” Or something like that. I’m really annoyed when I go to say… Myrtle Beach.. and some num nuts requests Philadelphia Freedom or something from the Piano Players at Crocodile Rock cause “We’re from Philly baby!” , you walk up and say “hey man, I’m from South Philly. Where you from?” And they reply, “oh well I’m from Harleysville”…😬🙄😑

I root for Notre Dame, that doesn’t make me from South Bend, Indiana

Its just an example of stuff people say in bullshit small talk convo. But I would say school rooting interests are different.

I read num nuts as nuns and thought I would totally give a bunch of nuns at a bar in Myrtle Beach requesting Philadelphia Freedom a pass if they claimed to be from the city. But no one else!
