The Pat’s and Geno’s feud has been brewing for decades, but apparently it takes a television host from Texas to bring the two together in mutual territory. Pat’s owner, Frank Olivieri and the face of Geno’s, Joe Vento came together today for a special episode of The Dr. Phil Show that was filmed right here in Philadelphia. Apparently, they were going to try each other’s steaks and maybe share a friendly handshake. Hmm…someone should make sure those sandwiches aren’t laced with anything except cheese, meat, bread and onions. Unfortunately, we weren’t able to catch this epic event, but we’re sure that this little meeting of the cheesesteak heavyweights won’t put an end to the grudges both have against each other.
