While I'd never say bridge and tunnel, I think it's perfectly in line with Philly ethos to refer to people from Jersey as the bridge and bridge crowd--as both a dig on Jersey-ites and a self-effacing swipe at ourselves vs. New York. As in: "I was at Morgan's Pier on Saturday afternoon left at five to avoid the bridge and bridge crowd."
