Grow a sweet mustache for Pittsburgh

To fit in with the locals, you need a thick, busy, barbell mustache. Say "yinz" a lot and ramble on meaninglessly about sammiches with cole slaw.

    I would like to apologize for the guaranteed "Here we go Steelers" chant that will break out during the Pittsburgh show. I was born in and live in PIttsburgh and I cringe any time this happens. I wonder if Ben Rapistberger will be there?

    1) There are a LOT of mustaches in Pittsburgh. Go to a Pittsburgh "Stillers" game, it's like stepping back in time to a 1970's porno (except the chicks aren't hot).

    2) There is a sandwich place called Primanti Brothers, which is local. They serve sandwiches (locally called "sammiches") that have cole slaw on them. They are very good, but the locals just ramble on and on about them. "Yinz goin' dahntahn to watch the Stillers play and have some Primanti's n'at?"

    3) Mmmmmmmmmustache.

    Actually it's "Hee we go Stillers, hee we go!"

    And don't forget the Ah'rn City Beer. Tastes like Natty Light, it isn't bad actually.

    I agree. The locals are tired of hearing about it but the truth is this: When friends come up, I take them to Primantis and they love it. And when they come again, they want to go again. It's just flat-out good.

    Caveat - I have only eaten at the original one, the one in the Strip District (18th and Smallman, I think). It is not "nice" but it's a local legendary dive and if you are making the trip to Mustache City you definitely should go to Primanti's.

    Yeah I have to admit Primanti's is pretty damn good. I cringe at everything steelers related and I laugh every time the steelers lose because everyone is so depressed. I can't condone cheering for a rapist like rapistberger. Anyway, end of rant. Go to Primanti's. It's awesome.
