I really do think that this "rivalry" is completely ridiculous and over-hyped. There are hundreds of places selling cheesesteaks and hoagies all over the city in every neighborhood, and most native Philadelphians have some favorite spot they go to or order from that is not down in South Philly at 9th & Passyunk, where it is almost impossible to park.
