World Series Cheesesteak

Tomorrow, Greater Philadelphia Tourism Marketing Corporation is hitting the road to share Philadelphia’s favorite sandwich, the cheesesteak with the people of Manhattan. To kick off Game 1 of the World Series, GPTMC will land at Shorty’s, a cheesesteak shop and sports bar, and will be handing out 500-750 free cheesesteaks to hungry New Yorkers.

The With Love World Series party starts at 4:00pm, with free Shorty-sized cheesesteaks for all until game time. Then, fans are encouraged to stick around and watch the game on Shorty’s five televisions, while GPTMC hands out a variety of With Love, Philadelphia XOXO prizes, one of which is a $100 gift certificate to any Garces Restaurant Group restaurant if the Phillies hit a homerun.

Manhattan-based Phillies fans, come out to perform your civic duty, and claim a free sandwich. Yankees fans, we know you love cheesesteaks too, and you’re more than welcome to come; you just might want to leave that A-Rod jersey at home.
