A beloved Philadelphia tradition is back today, it’s Wawa Hoagie Day! Known as one of the biggest events of Wawa’s Welcome America Festival, the annual celebration salutes the military, veterans, and other local heroes in the community. So we sent PHL17’s Alyssa Cristelli to the National Constitution Center to learn how to make a Wawa shortie.
If you want a free hoagie, head to the @constitutionctr to be in line by noon!
