Philadelphia, like many other cities, offers an array of fun options for the weekend visitor. Each person’s experience yields different outings, each person’s experience varies. But I spent a weekend in Philadelphia and it was flawlessly fun and perfect. If you’ve got your own ideas of what to do in Philadelphia, great! Better yet, share them in the comments on this post. But if you’re clueless, I’d highly recommend doing the following–because I did–and it was awesome: (more…)

This one’s been making the rounds the last couple of days, but it’s just too good not to post. Basically, this guy (Rob) is freaking out over his beloved Giant’s loss to the Eagles, which knocked them out of the Super Bowl running. And as the girl in the background points out, he’s being an uber-pu$$y. And it’s hilarious. [Beware: some language is NSFW]

The New York Post reported that Philly’s fiesty, Emmy Award-winning anchorwoman Alycia Lane was arrested after calling a female cop a “dyke b*tch” then punching her in the face. Sexy anchorwoman meltdowns are so hot right now.

Lane, 35, was riding around with her boy-toy Chris Booker (also a media personality in Philly; he’s a DJ at Q102) when a slow-moving car in front of them (full of cops, natch) got on the couple’s nerves. Once the officers pulled over their cab and confronted the two rabblerousers Lane decided it would be a great idea to start snapping pictures of the incident as it unfolded.

Attitudes where shown, spots were blown, punches were thrown – pretty gangsta to say the least. Lane’s exact quote is as follows: “I don’t care that you’re a cop – dyke b*tch!”

All of this from an Emmy Award-winning anchorwoman. (more…)

Tailgating. It has become the most popular ‘ritual before the actual ritual’ ritual. It takes the term ‘pre-gaming’ to a whole different level. Whether it’s before a concert, graduation, Baptism, a job or even a funeral, it all has the same universal goal, laid out very simply in this sentence: “Drink to get drunk before you drink, you drunk!â€? In other words, it’s the process of getting a nice buzz going before the actual main event, in this week’s case, Opening Sunday of the NFL.

If you are one of the unfortunate cities to not have an NFL team … well, you will most likely have a less awesome time than those tailgating… unless your doing your own thing, like drinking. If you are drinking, don’t drive, unless you’re driving an SUV of course… Anyway, where was I? Oh right, drinking to get drunk before you drink, you drunk.

Depending on where you are from and the type of fans the team has will decide what kind of tailgate will be had. Bears fans from the windy city and Patriot fans holding their beers with gloves on up in the Northeast, usually have a really super tailgate… judging by the heaviness of their male population: fat people drink and eat more!

The severely deprived fans of Philadelphia have their own little slogan, “Drink to get drunk before being disappointed.â€? These fans know their teams will ultimately shit the bed, so the Philadelphia tailgate usually starts a good 7 hours before kickoff, if you are running late. (more…)
