Anyone heading to the Philadelphia Union match Wednesday and want to give a father and son visiting from England a ride? We cancelled our bus because not enough riders, and we forget how hard it is to get the the stadium without a car. DM us and we can make the connection. They’d be happy to pay for parking or a cold beverage for your trouble. They are staying in Center City close to Brauhaus.

Sunday is NATIONAL BRATWURST DAY… and frankly, we don’t know why anyone would make you wait until Sunday to celebrate.
We’re talking delicious German brats nestled in a roll, covered in all the right things, and paired with a cold bier because WE HAVE STANDARDS.
Consider this your official excuse to:
• Eat a brat (or three)
• Drink a German bier
• Pretend you’re in Bavaria
• Make questionable amounts of sauerkraut disappear
Sunday’s forecast: 100% chance of BRAT.
Come hungry. Leave happy. Possibly smelling faintly of onions. PROST!
