Most Liveable City ~ City of Champions

Spent my childhood, teenage years and young adult life in Mt. Whooshngton and Sahside. My playground was Dahntahn. I was one of the few Sahsiders who swam in the Mon whenever we couldn't get the firehydratrants turned on. Sahsider train jumper and barge climber. Always dressed in blk-n-gold for Stiller Games; Penz and Pirates too. Even remember riding the trollys and taking the Incline was a way to work and not a tourist attraction. You can still get chipped ham & Sarris Candy at Jine Igl's. The Pittsburghese dialect is all in fun and Pittsburgher's are cashing in on it.

It is a reformed city without the stillmills pallutting the air. Pittsburgh is the City of Champions/Most Liveable City & City of Bridges with Three Rivers (Mon., Alleg., Ohio & let'snot forget that 4th River underneigh Dahntahn); all this comes together at 'The Point' - Dahntahn; where you can catch freezbie and swim in the fountan or hitch rides for boating and water-skiing and catch concerts in the park and let's not forget the way to 'Three Rivers' (Heinz Field).

It was nothing for me to walk from Mt. Whooshngton to Dahntahn then to Sahside and back to Mt.Whooshngton in one day! If you were low on money for the incline and trolly (now the "T"- subway) you hiked it as a kid/young adult working Dahntahn. Pittsburgh always will remain in my heart; even though I live 20 mins. south of Pittsburgh (paying 1% real estate tax instead of 6%) and I stopped talking Pittsburghese a long time ago. It's all in fun now.

Great job! There's nooooo doubt about it. You're from Da Burgh. You deserve a reward, so go have an Ahrn City or two. And GO STILLERS!
