Message MeadMe beers 1711 º places 1 º 09:52 Fri 3/28/2014 Originally posted by keanex What do you have like 3 in the whole state? So 95% of the state still doesn’t have them. AND you still have the backwards ass northern part of Florida. I pass 4 WaWa’s on my commute to work. They are popping up everywhere in the Tampa area.

Message Drake P admin beers 21771 º places 1246 º 14:26 Fri 3/28/2014 Gkost, I agree. Wawa is a terrible place to grocery shop. Why would you even bring that up when we were discussing subs? Publix founded Winter Haven, FL. Wawa founded Chester Heighs, PA. But we know from the fruited berliner discussion, Florida loves to claim other people’s innovations as their own, so...

Message Drake P admin beers 21771 º places 1246 º 14:30 Fri 3/28/2014 Let me be clear here, since I’m coming across as very negative. I have zero problem with most Floridians, and people on RB I’ve met who have Florida connections have all been top notch people. My problem lies with the state itself, climate, geology, etc., its politics and it’s over-whelming sense of self-righteousness. I have been in Florida a few times and I have family who live there, so I’m not completely speaking out of ignorance.

Say what you want but no one retires and moves up north! [/sarcasm]
Message Drake P admin beers 21771 º places 1246 º 14:55 Fri 3/28/2014 Ask me when I retire in 33+ years. Maybe I’ll suddenly like dripping hot weather.

I drive past 3 on my way to work, and have one under construction within a 5 minute walk to my house. Florida subs = Publix, or WaWa This obviously makes Florida superior. NEXT!
