| 85. I used to trash Pittsburgh |
|
because of the Philly-Pitt rivalry ingrained in me at Penn State.
After college, my one girlfriend said she was sick of my nonsense, and organized what the travel industry calls a "fam tour" (familiarity tour) for me.
Friday night at Froggy's, then up the incline and dinner on Mt. Washington. Saturday at a polo match, then again out to dinner. Sunday watching the Steelers from a luxury box at Three Rivers Stadium (uh, yeah, this was a while ago).
Never trashed Pittsburgh again.
Except maybe the accent ("Dawn" is a guy? Named Donald? Really?) and the "that shirts needs ironed" sentence constructions.
