For twenty plus years, he had to hear about the Philadelphia wrestling fans. We have a crowd full of people who consider themselves to be smart marks . . . smart fans. You have been looking for the definition of smart marks, take a selfie and throw your phone off the Walt Whitman Bridge so you don’t have to look at your image.
