Pittsburgh in November - Good Idea? No, Great Idea!

I finally got a chance to visit Carl and his mom. The funniest thing about this trip is that it's the first time that I've ever met Carl's mom. I've missed meeting her by a few minutes on multiple occasions. Meeting Carl's mom was the highlight of the trip. Sharon is a fantastic woman who I have to thank for hosting me while I was in Pittsburgh. It was nice seeing Carl's mom, it was ok seeing Carl. I mean, I've seen him 4-times this year now. Carl knows the two things that I like are sports and food (and not necessarily in that order). So after I landed in Pittsburgh we headed to Pittsburgh's famous Peppi's. It's a great sub shop that's famous for the Roethlisburger sandwich. I didn't get this but it did look good.

Carl picked me up in one of these.

Well, he actually picked me up from the airport in a Volkswagen. We went down to the stadium and they had all the Batmobiles from Adam West's to Christian Bale's.

It was pretty cool. The Dark Knight Rises was filmed partly in Pittsburgh. It's easy to tell when movies are filmed in Pittsburgh, just look for the yellow bridges.

We went to Heinz Field where the Pittsburgh Steelers play to take some pictures during the day. We were going the the Ravens vs. Steelers game the follwoing night.
