jiggins7919 Posted November 22, 2019 Report Share Posted November 22, 2019 Bro, I'm glad he's not suspended. I want him back playing against us, and I want us to lay the ever living SMACK down again. That game is going to be INTENSE, and I want the freaking sweep. First, we need to take care of business against the fish. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know, they make these things called automobiles. Devices that you can climb into that are handy to move around in and go to places. Ever hear of them?

In checking, I find that an Amtrak ticket from Charlotte to Pittsburgh is $141.00...one way. So, about 280....just for you to take the train. If you have a companion, double that to $560.00 But if you drive, you would spend about $200.00 on hotels motels for your stay.....(2 persons, 2 queen beds) Drive up Saturday from Carolina, drive back Monday. (2 nights stay) Two tanks of gas each way at $40.00 each tank. (it shouldn't take that much...depending on your car). $160.00 Parking? Don't know...never had to pay for parking in Pittsburgh. Where we do our Browns Board tailgate, we pay $10. If Pisstown had a public transportation system like Cleveland...it could cost nothing (or the $2.00 for the transit ticket). Your tickets to the game and food/booze are fixed costs anyway...so remove those from the equation. So $560.00 vs $360. I just saved you $200. You're welcome.

The Gipper Posted November 22, 2019 Report Share Posted November 22, 2019 I understand that Pittsburgh has something called the "T" station, that takes you basically right the Heinz Field. And here you go, you can find likely a hundred hotels for less than 200 for 2 nights in Pittsburgh. https://www.travelocity.com/Hotel-Search?adults=2&destination=Pittsburgh (and vicinity)%2C Pennsylvania%2C United States of America&endDate=2019-12-02&guestRating=&hotelName=&latLong=40.44109%2C-80.00166&localDateFormat=M%2Fd%2Fyyyy&regionId=601717&sort=PRICE_LOW_TO_HIGH&startDate=2019-11-30&useRewards=true Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gipper Posted November 22, 2019 Report Share Posted November 22, 2019 I' m g👀D sleeping with his mother 🤓 for under 500 And, if needs must......you can probably find an all night hooker in Pittsburgh for about Ten Bucks!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Gipper Posted November 22, 2019 Report Share Posted November 22, 2019 Here is the actual truth: Aside from the stupid fans of their football team, the city of Pittsburgh is actually quite alright. Just doing this research on it is giving me the idea to maybe spend like a weekend there sometime. I do have some towns I want to visit : Philly, Chicago, Naples Fla, Biloxi, Green Bay/Door Co. Rapid City, Denver and Beyond, Las Vegas, Spokane, Portland OR....but those would be longer trips.... 2 days in Shittsburgh...I could do. Would probably not do it during football season. Maybe when an Indian's/Pirates game is being played. My impression is that the PNC Bank is a much nicer facility than the big ketchup bottle.

It is very intimate, with amazing views of Pittsburgh. My only complaints are overall mediocre food and getting in/out of the stadium sometimes can be a pain. Entrances/exits bottleneck easily with a big crowd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gumby73 Posted November 22, 2019 Report Share Posted November 22, 2019 Been to PNC bank & the ketchup bottle both twice..PNC is nice!! saw Kenny Chesney & Zac Brown band both there...Am closer to the NC Beach's..Car Travel includes looping around DC on I-95 to Shiltzberg.

Where in NC are you? And no matter where you live, any proper route by car. would take you nowhere near DC....Richmond at the closest. Dude...you need to learn to read a map! And $200 round trip, sure, is better than about $350. But what do you do? Sleep on the train? Do they give you bunks? Where do you get on this train in NC?

calfoxwc Posted November 22, 2019 Report Share Posted November 22, 2019 Personally, I think it's a great idea to go camping - no chance of bedbugs, cockroaches (although most of them will be steeler fans at the game), or fleabitus diseases. 9 Best Places For Camping In Pittsburgh https://www.onlyinyourstate.com/pennsylvania/... May 18, 2016 · These 9 Amazing Camping Spots Around Pittsburgh Are An Absolute Must See. Hooray for summer! Sunny days. Cool evenings (well, sometimes!) Lightning bugs zipping back and forth in the dark. Picnics in the park. Water gun battles. Kids yelling. And, of course, camping – a universal experience loved by both kids and adults.

Nope Gipper- just plug in directions on Google maps- the DC route from coastal North Carolina is 1\2 hour shorter drive time Yeah- the other route that came to my mind is I-77 up the West Virginia Turnpike (that we use when we head down to visit the Brother in Law in Goldsboro) . But that's a full 90 minutes longer- and you're definitely rolling the dice driving through the WVa mountains if you get hit in a snowstorm.... It's a classic- you can't get there (directly) from here..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a classic- you can't get there (directly) from here..... But the Google map route does NOT take into account that you have to spend 3-4 hours going maybe 15-20 miles in DC traffic. It may be a bit shorter in miles, but no one in his right mind would want to deal with that traffic...be it shorter or not (because I was once not in my right mind and had to deal with it). From Coastal Carolina you would go up I-95 to I-64 near Richmond. Then up I-81 to I-70 to I-76 (Pa Turnpike). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winner!! crossing from east coast of NC to I-77 clear across state is a 6 hour boring, no view driving nightmare. full of radar traps & I can't drive 65..The growing areas from Raleigh and all West of.. are wide-ing the highway construction zones right now..horrid lane shift back-ups 14 hours ago, The Gipper said: But the Google map route does NOT take into account that you have to spend 3-4 hours going maybe 15-20 miles in DC traffic.

The timing does not work as well, timing it, coming back From North to South Richmond I-64 turning into I-81 is for miles of site see'ers of Mountain drivers..Gorgeous Yes!! but even the truckers avoid the wrecks that are not there..
