VIDEO: Visit Philly unveils big new ad
There are a lot of reasons to visit Philly and they go way beyond the two biggies we hear all the time: Ben Franklin and the cheesesteak.

PHILADELPHIA -- There are a lot of reasons to visit Philly and they go way beyond the two biggies we hear all the time: its rich history and the cheesesteak.



A new tongue-in-cheek commercial from Visit Philadelphia called 'Philazillas' has everyone talking.



The ad features ol' big Benjamin Franklin battling it out with a giant cheesesteak - Godzilla vs. Mothra style.



As the clash wages, the spot takes us around town to showcase all of our other gems including outdoor parks and waterfronts, restaurants, hotels, the arts, and culture.



So yes, we are more than a cheesesteak and a big Ben, but we do love them - larger than life!
