Boy do we have a full schedule today! The Phillies play at 1:30, the Champions League semifinal is at 3:00, the Sixers play at 6:30 and the Flyers will hopefully wrap up their playoff series tonight at 8. Uh, we mean we have a full schedule of work and nothing but work today! Just because we’re working from home does not mean we are watching TV.
If we were getting excited about sports, though, it might show a little this week. Because a lot of our favs are coming from right here in Philly. It also might show that we miss going to restaurants and watching live music, just a little bit.

To complement the branding of Yards’ Philthy IPA, the Philly brewery is using the big-mouth design for an on-the-nose (or on-the-mouth) product. This one was obvious, but it’s still flawless execution.
2. Live at Studio 4 T-shirt
We definitely miss going to concerts. Having so much good music and places to watch it is one of the best things about Philly. Thankfully, Studio 4 up in the nearby town of Conshohocken not only recreated the experience with a great in-studio streaming series, they’re bringing the merch table to us via e-commerce.
3. Tattooed Mom To-Go Stickers

Ah, Tattooed Mom. The pinnacle of Philadelphia’s South Street drinking and snacking establishments. We can’t hang out within your heavily stickered and graffiti’d walls and enjoy dinner with a side of cheap plastic toys right now, but we can at least get some branded to-go cocktails with these fun stickers on them.
4. Johnny Brenda’s Merch

Probably one of the best small venues (or venues overall) in Philly that also has killer food and a pool table. We love Johnny Brenda’s, and we love this whole collection—especially the pin recreating its iconic sign.
5. Toretto’s Car Club Magnet

OK, this one has absolutely nothing to do with Philadelphia, or even a real place. But as huge fans of the “Fast and the Furious” franchise, we’d like to think that the spirit of Toretto’s garage lives within our hearts no matter where we are.
