You can tell you're from Pittsburgh, you're grammar tells all. ( I wouldn't live no were else ) I'll allow for your misgivings, I'm betting you listen to Terry Bradshaw a lot because he talks like that ! lol

I love this. I grew up in Pittsburgh and remember the BIcentennial celebration well. My Dad worked for an engineering firm that worked on the moving mechanism for the Civic Arena. Now my daughter, who grew up all over the country, lives in Bloomfield and loves it.

latrobe and uniontown is part of the pittsburgh metro area...thats why those inventions hold salt. to say latrobe and uniontown arent 'pittsburgh' is like saying brooklyn or long island isnt 'new york city'. metro areas count more than city proper people....geesh. altho to be honest...uniontown and latrobe is sorta pushin the boundaries lolol

Wow congratulations. Thanks to us, we invented the first gas station and grocery store. Also the highways that took you there, also the jeep that you rode on that highway. The aluminum can that the beer is in was invented in Pittsburgh...I could go on and on!!!
