Pittsburgh Weekend
 

My belated birthday present from my beloved were great seats at PPG Arena for a Penguin's game! We drove across the state, wandered the city, celebrated a great game with the Yinzers, and ate the local chow. Nice!

They won, you won, Pete won, great weekend!

.

Y'all went up the incline too? Nice

.

They had lost two OT games in a row so they came out hard!

Yeah, we went up the Duquesne Incline, the old one from 1877. That was neat. I took some video of the machinery but I don't know if it actually captures it.

Sounds like a good time was had.

Pittsburgh cleans up real purty.

Yeah nice one in a nice town. We even got Yinzed a couple times.

Did you have a Schmidter?

:D

Actually, after a bit of googling... I meant a Primaris kitchen sink sandwich. Dunno why I thought it was called schmitter.

I had the corned beef and cheese. It had the coleslaw and fries on it, was really good and was entirely too much food. I ate 3/4 quarters of the thing. Quality ingredients, good stuff, but requires a bigger man than me.

All of the sandwiches have coleslaw and fries. Only the suburban locations will allow you to get the sandwich without those ingredients. I love the kielbasa. If you love the bread, it's made down the street from the original location (in the strip district) at a place called Mancini's. They have good bread, period.

Too bad I didn't see this earlier! That's my hometown :)

If you're going to San Francisco, walking sucks...

FIFY.:jig:





Also;

Re: Walking.

Yeesh!

I've gone up and down those streets by motorcycle. The traffic makes it a tad different from riding mountains.

Tough on clutches!

And on brakes.

or pedestrians

Well, to be fair, most of San Fran's pedestrians are a certain kind of pedestrian.

You know...Hipsters.

Hipsters don't count.

Their leather shoes make a nice braking surface.

Yebbut, by the time you've paid the wranglers, ya coulda just bought brake shoes.

The right wingers wear Wranglers, the left wingers wear Levis.

Do hipsters wear jeans? If they did I think they'd wear made in USA like Dearborn or something one off.

Does the Pope shit in the woods?! Hells yes they wear jeans! $200 skinny, pre-mudded jobbers!!

I could distress jeans for a living. I've got a ripped and faded pair of wranglers that have reached peak comfort. Any bids?

Do you have a second pair for my other leg?

Speaking of San Francisco...
Who was?
I was.

They say shit runs downhill.
This is what it looks like at the bottom of that hill.

If you're from Pittsburgh you're from the other side of the tracks no matter what neighborhood. From the air Pittsburgh looks like a city perched o a cobweb. Charlotte's City!!

What does this have to do with hipsters? ;)

Some burgh.
