re: #212 ckkatz

My brother, who works in downtown DC, and apparently watched too many westerns, used to call them “Damned Pilgrims”

I worked for over a decade across the street from Independence Hall. During the spring and summer, I always got a kick out of seeing people literally from all over the world coming to see the Hall and the Liberty Bell.

That said; it’s absolutely shocking the amount of Philadelphians, particularly the native-born, who straight up loathed any sort of tourist and actively wished they would stay away from the city.
