Neither wind nor rain

Rain might make the trek more challenging, but it doesn’t stop students from hitting their favorite food truck.

The rain was falling in sheets outside of the Pizza Shop truck at 13th and Montgomery, near the Student Activities Center (SAC) at Temple University.

But it didn’t stop Jamie from waiting under an umbrella for her lunch. Under normal circumstances, she would have been standing in front of the Sexy Green Truck nearby, but ...

"The line was too long," she said.

Because you’re being asked to eat outside, food truck owners are asking a lot of their student consumers. But as one truck owner, The Prince, said, mutual interest comes into play.

"They have to eat somewhere," he says. "We give them good food here. Business may drop off a little when it rains, but we still do okay."
