You missed it. It says the plan is to open in about five months. I
hope that you will come to visit before that. )

That address puts the new 2nd Avenue Deli somewhere between Lexington Ave.
and 3rd Ave. It's going to sound strange OR at least confusing.

I wonder if they'll name it the "Off 2nd Avenue Deli"?

If they can have Coney Island hot dogs in Michigan, I think people
can deal with 2nd Avenue Deli being on 3rd. Heh. I mean,
Jersey Shore in the middle of Pennsylvania? Come on!

Heh...I grew up about an hour and a half from there. We always competed
against them in swim meets.

One time I was driving, coincidentally enough, to Michigan, when I
stopped at a rest stop. After I got going again, after going a bunch of
miles, I saw a sign, Jersey Shore however many miles. I thought, how
the *hell* did I get turned around, this sucks. I just added at least an
hour to the trip. I was happy to find out it was just a big old
Pennsylvania practical joke.

Well... Coney Island hot dogs on the Manhattan side of the East river maybe
OR Jersey Shore on the PA side of the Delaware river might better match the
plight of the 2nd Avenue Deli. Still, the 2nd Avenue Deli on 33rd & 3rd?
That's almost embarrassing UNLESS they call it...

"The Second 2nd Avenue Deli on 33rd Near Third Avenue"

This has been rumoured for about a year.

The E 33 address places it pretty close to Sarge's.

Sorry about that! I'd've warned ya!

Here's another roadtrip practical joke. In 2003, my friend and I were
taking a cross over from the 101 FWY to the Pacific Coast Highway in
northern California.

We were driving merrily along and in the middle of the woods a small town
came into view. As we were driving past it, a billboard across the road,
lit up with spotlights, read "WELCOME to Mark's Bar & Bistro!"

WTF??? Where'd the road go??? We couldn't figure how we were somehow
misdirected into Mark's parking lot. We braked and "WHAT?" then noticing
the double yellow line continue into the darkness, we realized the goof!!!
We laughed for the next few miles. When you're the Mayor and you happen to
also own the Bistro!??

Friggin' Kalifornia! LOL!

Yup. I agree. If anything, it'll just make passerby curious about the
name.

LOL! I've always been baffled by the name of that town. Why in the world
would a town in central PA get named Jersey Shore??

That's right near where a friend of mine used to have an occult
shop.

Are they going to keep the name "2nd Ave. Deli" if they're going to be
on 33rd? The "2nd Ave. Deli" is sure name recognition.

Really? Do you know the history of the town and how it got its name? (I
guess I could Google the information, but I'm just being lazy right now...)

I did know at one time, but I have forgotten the details. Pennsylvania
is known for towns with unique names such as Lititz and Intercourse.
