Tis’ the season of giving gifts to those near and dear to our hearts who have made it on the nice list. In true Philly form, we know it is impossible for every person in the city to make it on the nice list -we wouldn’t be Philly now would we. In contrast, if you are looking for something to give a naughty Philadelphian for Christmas besides coal, we’ve got you.
Maybe, a neighbor removed your parking spot cone. Or, maybe your out-of-town friend kept correcting your precious Philly accent. Well, we asked our Facebook followers for some suggestions. Read on for the gift to gift a naughty Philadelphia that isn’t coal! Merry Christmas ya’ Philly animals!
