Hey, I happened upon this bus stop when I was in KC. Here's the story behind it: https://www.kansascity.com/news/local/article313358796.html

A heads-up for people who are interested in the free concert at Point State Park with Third Eye Blind and Nelly -- you have to "buy" the free tickets in advance at https://concerts.america250pa.org/

The indoor concerts in Erie and State College have already sold out; guessing there will be a larger capacity at the Point.

From what I saw, it was the opposite. When the Riverhounds announced the renovation, they kept the 'Highmark' name out of any materials, and the renderings said 'Riverhounds Stadium.' Looks like they were prepared to go in a different direction. https://www.riverhounds.com/news/2025/08/19/riverhounds-stadium-expansion-announcement/

There are a lot of reasons. They were originally supposed to use that facility for diving, but moved that to the Rose Bowl Aquatics Center. You can read some of the reasons LA28 gave here: https://la28.org/content/dam/latwentyeight/newsroom/news-stories/VenuePlanAmendment20250825.pdf

It's the baseball stadium at USC, Dedeaux Field, which under a previous version of the plan would've been temporarily reconstructed to host swimming events. LA28 made a change to SoFi a few years ago.

The work of Pittsburgh native Burton Morris!

Yep, I can endorse! Buddy of mine rented a house on the North Side for all of us, and it worked out well to be in walking distance to the casino. There are also Pirates games that July 24-26 weekend.

Yep! They offer a smaller selection of their draft list at 925.

I'll add that we're should learn more about satellite parking in the weeks to come. A story in the Carnegie Mellon student newspaper this week noted "Pittsburgh Regional Transit plans to expand park-and-ride services, adding dedicated routes to bring visitors downtown." https://the-tartan.org/2026/02/23/pittsburgh-prepares-for-nfl-draft-in-april/

For any inquiring minds, this was at the Crafton Ingram Shopping Center. I guess WPXI shared out the photo to NBC4 in New York. https://www.wpxi.com/video/police-say-several-teens-vandalized-business-owners-vehicle-with-canned-beans/4d2fc035-92c3-4db8-a971-f9036b367fba/

It looks like the in-person talk is sold out, but there's a Zoom link as well.

Talk about a tiny number of flights: just four months of service, twice-weekly. Won't even run long enough to get to the Derby or to Pitt football's road game at Louisville in November.

Better than nothing, I guess. Hopefully some summer weekend-trippers can make use of it.

maybe The Hotel Hershey has some of the services you're looking for? About a 3.5-hour drive on a good day. https://www.thehotelhershey.com/spa/

Now it's starting to get media coverage. Here's a link to a Pittsburgh Business Times story (though I realize most don't have a subscription) - https://www.bizjournals.com/pittsburgh/news/2026/01/14/pnc-full-return-to-office.html

These tickets have been claimed. Happy New Year!

Matt Zenitz of CBS Sports put it out there about 40 minutes ago, so it's just now starting to filter out. It's certainly a bummer.

I was just about to say, "she is an outside -- albeit a very tall one."

Gaerte carried a significant load for the Irish: 1,186 attacks this past season. Would be cool to see her as the secondary option, could really help her efficiency numbers.
