Tons of fans will flock to Pittsburgh for the draft. For the locals — who I’m told are trying to avoid all the chaos as much as possible haha — what are some tips and advice you’d have about navigating the city for visitors?
Any dining or sightseeing activities you’d recommend to anyone coming to Pittsburgh for the first time? The Steelers have announced several former Steelers (like Jerome Bettis, Joey Porter Sr. and Joey Porter Jr.
) will be announcing picks during the draft. Several other people with links to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia University are scheduled to announce picks for the other teams. Who is someone famous from Pittsburgh or the nearby areas that you’d like to take the stage at a future event like this?
