Joey Vento, owner of a landmark south Philadelphia cheesesteak stand who
once told customers to order in English, has died. He was 71.


Long live Pats!
But I will give props to Joey...

RIP Joey, truly one of a kind.

I've been there a handful of times, and I always walked up to the
window and said in a loud, very exaggerated Texas drawl: "Y'all give
me one of them there whizzes, ah with."

People would turn and stare at me with their mouths open, like I was
from Mars.

But hey, at least it was English. Kinda sorta.

Had ya said "Cheese wit", they woulda directed ya to Pat's where they
make them better.

Still, a shame the ol guy died.

I watched the "Food Channle's "Food Feud" episode with the two pared
up,... Pat's won.
