Pittsburgh has an unfortunate name. There are probably some neighborhoods where one can escape the depths of despair by watching the Pirates or Steelers. However, it's hard to deny that even Pittsburgh's sport franchises make it sound like a shady place.
But then shady means giant elm trees and sipping ice-tea. Is there anyone who doesn't like a good elm tree in the height of summer? I guess if ice-tea is not your beverage of choice, you could try sampling (before immediately spitting) Wigle Whiskey. This will improve your skills and prepare you for the upcoming season of Watermelon Seed Spitting Contests. Despite some early misgivings, I found mapping in Pittsburgh to be a interesting, and perhaps worthy of an actual pit stop in future travels.
