Pittsburgh Weekend

Griff • Nov 24, 2019 9:43 am
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 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.
Griff • Nov 25, 2019 7:12 am
Yeah nice one in a nice town. We even got Yinzed a couple times.

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...

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

Tough on clutches!
xoxoxoBruce • Dec 17, 2019 11:18 pm
And on brakes.
Griff • Dec 18, 2019 7:04 am
or pedestrians
Gravdigr • Dec 18, 2019 4:01 pm
Well, to be fair, most of San Fran's pedestrians are a certain kind of pedestrian.

You know...Hipsters.

Hipsters don't count.
Griff • Dec 18, 2019 8:19 pm
Their leather shoes make a nice braking surface.
Gravdigr • Dec 18, 2019 9:57 pm
Yebbut, by the time you've paid the wranglers, ya coulda just bought brake shoes.
xoxoxoBruce • Dec 19, 2019 12:11 am
The right wingers wear Wranglers, the left wingers wear Levis.
Griff • Dec 19, 2019 7:36 am
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!!
Griff • Dec 23, 2019 7:20 am
I could distress jeans for a living. I've got a ripped and faded pair of wranglers that have reached peak comfort. Any bids?
xoxoxoBruce • Dec 23, 2019 8:51 am
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!!
Griff • Sep 14, 2020 7:15 am
What does this have to do with hipsters? ;)
