The sheer volume of the sound nearly blew my ears off, be advised to take out your earbuds before the festivities...ouch.

All of that to sell hoagies?! A music festival website rejected that intro for being too "over the top".

My jaw literally dropped, I love it so much.

Liz Berg played it yesterday too. Between this and PBR's countless Wawa mentions, I'm beginning to think that WFMU is getting a little help under the table.

George Harrison also has a song about Wawa.

Best Beatle, hands down.

Same album, also a song about pepperoni. I think he was in Philly when he recorded it.  I read that somewhere.  (If "somewhere" counts as me reading it right after I wrote it.  I say it does.)

Can someone figure out how to get mp3s of these?

I think I'm going to write Joe Belock.  I need these songs.

You can download them from the website, click menu then freebies and they should be right there.

Hoagiefest is a complete sham now that Wawa has turned its back on the greatest city in the world (http://www.philly.com/philly/business/homepage/20080727_PhillyDeals__Wawa_hoagie_rolls_now_from_Vineland.html).  Also of note in the article, the first shot is fired in the Philadelphia-Chicago bread war.

wawa is still above such chains as Texas' Kum 'n' Go and Colorado's Loaf 'n' Jug.

I know you're joking, but as a Philly native, I take these things seriously. And I'll say that this does not bother me. Wawa is as much a NJ thing as it is a Philly thing.

You're clearly making both of those up.

I guess Kum & Go is actually headquartered in Iowa.

My boyfriend always brings me back a Kum n Go lighter when he comes home from touring. They're great icebreakers at parties.

It's like WaWa asked him to come up with an ad campaign.
