no.
but we DO say "pop" instead of "soda".
we take more after the Pixburgh side of the state than the Philly side.
(originally FROM central PA)
btw...you might need to be more specific...the mountains run right down the middle of the state. are you talking northern tier, Altoona/Johnstown, or Bedford County environs?

What do they call them in Altoona?
I got myself a seniors' GPS. Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination, it tells me why I wanted to go there.

We in the northwest don't have no accents.
Right now I’m having amnesia and déjà vu at the same time. I think I’ve forgotten this before.
