good read and pics
I was there 2 weeks ago for the old timers game between tigers and pirates..its a beautiful park. the best I if have seen all 4 of them! haha . Pittsburgh is a very nice city with great food. I loved the primanti brothers sandwiches. The yellow bridges were awesome as well.
DoctorK, those are some nice pictures. Look, a Mark Grace jersey sighting in the picture of the baby being eaten!

very nice, doctorK
I am not even exactly sure why but the Pirates were my second favorite team growing up (and yet for some odd reason, I loathed the football team).
I did lots of reading on Clemente (I was five when he died), and dug on Pops and Cobra. In fact, it’s because of Clemente that 21 is my favorite number.
Just curious: any Bonds artifacts about the place?
Love that scoreboard morphing thing you mention. Extremely cool.
I'm here to talk about the past.
I didn't see any mention of Mr September

I am most confident that I despise you.
BTW, does Denver have a Rob Lytle statue?
January of 1978, the defending champion Oakland Raiders were coming off of a thrilling double overtime win over the Baltimore Colts, and coming into Mile High Stadium to face their long time division rivals the Denver Broncos. Late in the game, Craig Morton handed the ball off to Rob Lyttle who plunged towards the goal line only to be blasted by Jack “the Assassin” Tatum who knocked the ball loose. Mike McCoy picked up the ball and was running for an apparent go ahead touchdown, when the officials blew the play dead saying that forward progress had been stopped. At that time there was no instant replay, so that was the end of that. The NFL has since apologized to the Raiders, saying it was a bad call. Rob Lytle has also since admitted it was a fumble. The apology is all well and good, but that does not change the outcome of the game. It does not give the Raiders the chance to defend their title that they deserved.

Good stuff.

LOL - you're right
And I didn’t even think of the irony.

This very well might be my favorite park that I have been to.
And I have been to Wrigley and Fenway. While it lacks the history of the older parks, the view of downtown and bridges is simply amazing. I won’t bore you with all the other details that I loved! But I hope the fam enjoyed the fact that the Puppies won! It doesn’t seem to happen that often these days…
Bring Jerry back!
Little Miss specialK was disappointed that the Bucs lost
We cheered her up by telling her the “Puppies” won.
And Mrs doctorK proved she belongs in Mensa by telling me, when they started up the “Let’s Go Bucs” cheer, that an anagram of Bucs is, of course, Cubs.

Puppies!!! I have to use that nickname for the Cubs now.
Cubs = Puppies

That is the Primanti Brothers' style
Fries were indeed inside the sammich. And it was awesome.

Sorry, keyboard fail
That’s some kind of traditional Pittsburgh sandwich, where they put the fries on the sandwich instead of next to it. It’s sorta the Pgh equivalent of a cheesesteak or a hoagie in Philly.
