The Steel City

Honestly, I think the city of Pittsburgh gets a raw deal sometimes. People characterize it as a filthy, post-industrial hicktown that happens to be located north of the Mason-Dixon line.

I respectfully disagree. Lest we forget, Pittsburgh has been home to some great things: Andrew Carnegie, the Warhol Museum, the Whiskey Rebellion, and one of the TWO professional brass bands in the entire world (right here in River City!).

Oh. And THIS guy. I'm pretty sure he's my hero.
