I'm surprised Giant Iggle never tried to push into Southeastern PA. With Eagle in the name...it would probably prove to be popular and I'm sure it could provoke shoppers into random "E-A-G-L-E-S EAGLES!" chants that Evergrey LOVES so much!
I'm much more of a fan of "Fly Eagles Fly!"... it's slightly more sophisticated...

BiLo/Riverside exists primarily in the portions of rural Western/Northern PA that Giant Eagle has not penetrated... though I guess Indiana is one market in which they are in direct competition...
