Great Wawa Massacre Of 2008 Continues

Johnny Goodtimes is reporting that the Wawa at 20th and Chestnut is closing at the end of the month. I’m too lazy to walk five blocks down to see if there’s a sign up or anything, but let’s just assume it’s true.

And let’s assume this is true also: He writes all the Center City Wawas will be leaving when their leases are up — even my beloved Jefferson Hospital location?! — and that Wawa hates us. Well, duh, they’re a business. But why just leave Center City?

Naturally, the twentysomething white people of in and around Center City will not be standing for this business decision travesty, and will no doubt be protesting for the rest of the year. Although 6 of 10 Center City Wawas have closed since 2000, 2/29 will forever be the official start of the Great Wawa Massacre of 2008.
