Requiem: The Day the Phi Di Died

Philly_Diner

As is the long-standing newly established tradition for any campus staple to which we find ourselves waving goodbye, we bring you Requiem: The Day the Phi Di Died.

We walked by you daily, your curtains held high, And sometimes dropped in for some omelets and fries.

While not always timely, efficient or clean, When we think dingy diners, you reigned quite supreme.

You survived through a decade at your 39th Street post, Which, to be honest, is much longer than most [other dining establishments in the area].

Good-bye + good-bye + good-bye = good-byes, Each time we think of you, we'll wipe a tear from our eyes.
