first of all you don’t know what the fuck you are talkin about… i work down here EVERYDAY… ESPECIALLY in the summer people are comming from outta town… cincy, st louis and chicago travel to pittsburgh very well. even when people are just coming in to see family in the summer they usually hit up a pirates game… secondly do you think the bars on the northside stay in business because of 16 steelers games? haha… anyway thats exactly what people do after the pirates game… they hit up the places right outside the park and if they are from outta town they go back to the hotels downtown.
again your stupidy is astounding… every sunday game is an aftertoon game but other than than that we only have 7 weekday day games this season. thats 7 outta 81… did you make it outta grade school with those math skills? But yes there is games with low attendance but the average was still 24K.
the pirates make the games affordable for college students… the penguins didnt have to but they still held tickets back for college students…what’s dan rooneys problem… he’s makin enough money why can’t he do the same?
here is something else that is interesting… while i can speak for what they donate privately, as an organization, the pirates donate to local charities double what the steelers and pens do combined.
