Carls Jr Philly accent commercial realistic?

Okay, Carl's Jr has an ad spot with a couple of Philledelphia locals
talking away complete with sub-titles. How realistic are those
accents?

Garondo Marondo...

If you put/find it on Youtube I'll tell you, but Carl's Jr doesn't have
a foothold here ao I've never seen the spot, the so-called Philly
accent isn't everwhere, just in some parts. Ever heard Bam Margera from
Jackass? That's the only famous person I can think of that has an
authentic Philly accent.

I assume it's the same commercial as the Hardee's version that was
somewhat over-played about 6 months ago. Two guys talking about
their burgers, and making semi-lude comments to a woman who passes
by near the end of the spot.

All I know is I can barely understand what you're saying even though
you're writing it down.

Garondo Marondo...

You know that isn't true, my pronunciation is always perfect, I sound
just like George Plimpton.

David...

...stuffing a cheesecake down his throat?

..
Garondo Marondo!

Totally agreed. I grew up in Philly (just around the corner from the
original Lee's Hoagie House at 19th and Cheltenham). When I have had
cheesesteaks and hoagies in other locations, the bread is usually the
major disappointment. The taste is off and the texture is wrong...the
roll just doesn't have the right "bite." Often, the mixture of the
meats is off, too. Usually it is not enough cappacolla or salami.
The oil and oregano mix on the roll is often not right either. ..we
will not even discuss the occasional vendor who asks if you want mayo
on the thing...Egad! (This is a major sin!)

With cheesesteaks, someone ineveitable offers me "Cheese Whiz" which is
something I gather they do now but NEVER did a ways back...I remember
melted provolone that was dumped on top of the chopped meat on the
grill for a short time right before they slapped it onto the roll with
the grilled onions.

John Duncan Yoyo...

That is sure my choice of cheese.

Bobby Flay's Throwdown had him go up against a Cheesesteak champion,
Tony Luke, Jr. Bobby whipped up a provolone based cheese sauce to
compete with the Whiz but he blew it by going with sirloin which I
think was way too lean to cook right.

I never heard of Tony Luke but I've been away from Philly a long time.

The Mom and Pop places are often the best.

As for the Philadelphia accent in the commercial...They don't sound
like anyone I ever knew in Philly. They sound more like they are from
Brooklyn.
