so the game i went to was last night versus the caps. i'll tell you guys one thing, and to others visiting the city, pittsburgh is PASSIONATE about their sports! got there saturday morning around noon and went straight to station square hoping to catch the molly trolley for a tour. unfortunately, it was sold out. from the second we parked and walked around, all we saw was people wearing steelers jerseys with a mix of penguins apparel. all my wife and i were wearing sports related were caps hats and we were instantly being, playfully, made fun of, but you guys were awesome. it did question how the areana would be after a few drinks, lol. after station square, and riding the incline, we took a self guided tour through the city and ended up at the strip. holy crap, we have never seen so many sports jerseys being worn, especially on a saturday. we even questioned if the steelers were playing that night, and after a quick google search, learned steelers werent playing until sunday! seriously, ive never seen so many jerseys worn unless leaving a stadium or arena. you guys are awesome! thought about getting primanti bros sandwich but the line was enormous! fast forward, consol energy center is beautiful! you dont know how lucky you are, it's so open on the concourse and just well done. the staff were super nice and had a blast. being from dc, which is basically a mixing bowl, verizon center is basically a mix of fans, it was amazing to see so many penguins fans. in every section, there may have been 2 red jerseys on average. when the caps scored, it was basically silent, where at verizon center, there is always a cheer heard from the thousands of opposing fans. even if the caps had not won, (sorry), i had a great time in your city and cant wait to come back someday
