Celebrate Philly Beer Week in NYC! So, ah, this is cute. SEPTA and Philly Beer Week have put out a special Beer Week pass that is an “unlimited, all-day, bus-trolley-rail pass that will be sold for $9 daily from March 6 until March 15.” Neat! Only, as KYW 1060 reports and I probably should have noticed when I saw this pass go on sale (whoops!), it’s not exactly the skyline of Philadelphia in the background. It’s New York!
They’re actually going to fix it? Umm… good? I guess? Or is it: Boo, wasting money, bad!! I don’t really know. But at least It is good that someone has found a way to combine two of my favorite things (good beer and making fun of SEPTA). Thanks, SEPTA. Let’s hope your tribute to Martin Luther King webpage has similar errors. SEPTA’s “Beer Week” Pass Loses Its Way, Graphically Speaking [KYW 1060] |

There’s a good chance somebody had this before KYW, but I’m certainly not checking. Drop me a line or comment and I’ll update the post if you want credit for being FIRST!!!111

Uh yeah, we both know you found out about this after sitting on a broken SEPTA bus reading today’s Metro.
Go ahead and check, the story is as fresh as 6AM news ;-)
I actually read Metro today! No idea how I missed this.
I guess I haven’t read Phillyskyline since Sunday, though. D’oh!
Did you hear that Rick Mariano is on top of City Hall threatening to jump???
I saw this in the Metro and was laughing out loud on the train. I still can’t stop snickering. This is such a great dumb ass move. SEPTA doesn’t even know what city they are operating in.
[...] As part of a promotion for the City of Brotherly Love’s upcoming Beer Week — why doesn’t New York have a beer week?? —the Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority released a commemorative daily pass for public transit. The only problem was that the city skyline on the back of the card was New York City and not Philadelphia. [...]
