Saints they ain't

Earlier this afternoon, I dashed into a Wawa market to pick up hoagie fixings for the big game tonight, our Philadelphia Eagles versus the New Orleans Saints.

Wawa was humming with last-minute shoppers. But all small talk stopped the moment an unfortunate young man walked into the convenience store, clad from head to toe in the gold, black and white of the Saints.

Then the kid behind the deli counter broke the silence:

"Sorry, we can't serve you here," he said.

The shoppers in the store erupted in good-natured laughter. The guy in the Saints uniform turned pale, then blushed, when he realized he was going to make it out of Wawa in one piece.

Still, I couldn't help but hope he spills chili all over that awful jersey.

anyone who has voted for "The Coop" for the 'Best of South Jersey' take note - the staff in this place is downright hrrible. they are the rudest bunch of jerks I've ever come across. The management must be too busy in the back cooking the food to ccare about the teenagers working the phones and the counters. What ever happened to customer service?? I'm not looking for the red carpet every where I go but it's applaing to see the treatment from these arrogant and mean spirited kids. I've spent my last dollar there, you couldn't pay me to go back.

The kid must have been dared to wear that jersey. Maybe it was some kind of frat hazing?
He got off easy.

It was he who had the last laugh and I was laughing with him. That black and gold jersey just got prettier and prettier with each tick of the game clock. Good job and a terrific year Saints fans.
