Question What does Roanoke and Birmingham Have that Philly Doesn't?

Answer: Pedicabs

Yes we are the backwater of hired transportation. Today's Metro highlights the story of how Chariots of Philly was run out of town by L&I and an unkown entity who complained about the service at Eagle games.

Meanwhile look at today's entries on Google News
