The Fresh Prince was in Maryland, not Pennsylvania
♫ In West Philadelphia, born and raised... ♫
I got in one little fight and my mom got scared She said, "You're movin' with your auntie and uncle in Bel-Air" (Los Angeles)
Aww, when I google mapped 'bel air' it came up with maryland, which I assumed made sense as it was close-ish to Philadelphia
Edit: should've wikipedia'd
I remember something about him traveling across the United States in the cab. I mean how much would that cost?!
In the full version of the opening that they use in the pilot there's an extra verse where he is on a plane.
That makes sense. Thank you for that bit of Fresh Prince lore!
Happy to share! And I still find it funny to imagine the cab going all the way when I hear the standard shortened version lol.
