On a day where the Boston marathon was just run and the Sox are tied in the 8th at Fenway to win the series against Tampa Bay, it’s hard to not say Boston.

I liked Pittsburgh a lot more than Philly. It's not even close actually and my sample size isn't small.

I’ve only been to Philly once, and I had a good time. I don’t even remember what neighborhood I was in, but we went to an authentic Mexican restaurant that was BYOB. I know a handful of people from Philly and they’re nice, normal people.

Philly doesn’t even belong in the conversation.

It’s:
1. Boston
2. Boston
3. Bawston

No. Boston appreciates the sharp tongue above all else. Philly appreciates the fists above all else. Two very different lives. You talk shite in Philly, you’re getting your face pummeled. You talk shite in Boston, so long as you’re funny they’ll buy you a beer.

My only complaint about Pittsburgh is it's a hard city to navigate. People are friendly Midwestern types, nice terrain, cool downtown, you can get 40 minutes outside of the city and there are deer and wildlife everywhere

I had to go to Philly twice a year for work for 10-11 years. I hate that place. Only time I've ever been flipped off while driving by a soccer mom in a minivan


Lived there for around a year. I really, really hate that city.

The problem with Philly are the people. We’re just…shitty miserable fricks. That’s it. We are a miserable bunch but we love our city and will fight for it. That’s why Philly is the birthplace of “frick around and find out”. A spirit embedded in most Patriots.


What a sale. “City of Brotherly Love.” I’m guessing some guy from Boston came there, smarted off mistakenly thinking y’all had a sense of humor, you beat him up 5 on 1, and as he’s departing sarcastically called it the City of Brotherly Love. Y’all were just dumb enough to think he was serious.

Lived in Pittsburgh as well. I find it to be the most underrated city in the United States. Way, way, way better than Philly. Save for the weather, I enjoyed my time there.
