While I get why he'd want some delicious Philly soft pretzels, I'm afraid @Sen_JoeManchin is sorely mistaken if he thinks his @WVUhoops Mountaineers stand a chance against Jay Wright and the #1 seed @NovaMBB Wildcats in the #Sweet16.

Democrat Joe Manchin is offering pepperoni rolls from Chico's Bakery in Morgantown if the Mountaineers lose. Pennsylvania Republican Pat Toomey is putting up soft pretzels baked by the Philly Pretzel Factory.
