He had two bodyguards with him, which probably explains why he thought that he was safe trying to cut in a hoagie line.
Do not get in between a Philadelphian and their sammich, capiche?
Conservative radio pundit and Fox News host Sean Hannity came to Philadelphia presumably to stain the Democratic National Convention.
Instead, he seems to have disrespected the region’s favorite convenience store and gratuitously insulted African-Americans, thereby staining his own reputation.
At least that’s the story according to a few different sources, led by Twitter satirist E. Mo Black.
There’s documented proof that Hannity was at the Wawa on Broad and Walnut streets in Center City at some point on Monday night.
Unfortunately, the man who took this picture left before Hannity allegedly lost his composure and demanded service ahead of everyone else.
That account of what happened was shared by E. Mo Black in a series of glorious tweets you can read in full here. Below is the abridged version.
The wilful display of elitist bigotry depicted here, followed by such a laudable show of nonviolent vigilante justice, is so becoming of the universe that we all sort of want it to be the truth.
Two of the tweets:
Hannity told him he was in a hurry, he had a very important job to get back to & to let Tanikqua fix his sandwich so he can get back to work

The Wawa worker's name was Ashley.

People of Philadelphia, I salute you.
