The Best 'Burghers in Town

Tomorrow kicks off the G20 festivities (or nightmare, depending on who you ask) here in Pittsburgh. I am a little ambivalent about it, to be honest, but what I don't care for is the idea of protesters descending on my fair city and wrecking the joint. I get that they have their passions and issues. Really, I get it. I have mine too - but just because I'm pro-choice doesn't mean the conservative church down the road from me feels like they have to board up their windows every time I drive past. In general, Pittsburgh is a friendly place. We may not be as cosmopolitan or hip as its sisters NYC or Chicago or SanFran, but it ain't half bad.

We certainly don't take ourselves too seriously. Unless we're talkin' football.

And when our local folks step out to demonstrate, they really do it up.


Kudos my fellow 'Burghers, Kudos.
