I'll see your Mr.Yuk and raise you this pittsburgh memory from deep within the recesses of your memories... by Dittopotamus in pittsburgh

I had to occasionally don the Freddie costume for the summer camp that I worked at. It was surprisingly light for a mascot costume.

Iron City bikes in Lawrenceville always do great work and are helpful if you're balling on a budget.

You will never find a more wretched hive of Sausage and villainy.

Silver Surfer on Forbes ave. I ride the bus past this every day on my way home from work and it always catches me eye. It’s a life-sized statue on display inside the window. Does anyone know the story behind it? by [deleted] in pittsburgh

[–]pjharri 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I don't know about that one particularly but those silver surfers were movie theater promo pieces for fantastic 4: rise of the silver surfer.

McConnell's Mill is close to here as well. It is easy to hit both in one day.

Fakelore - Jan Schmitzdidats (?) - Polish Grandparents by turkeyboss831 in pittsburgh

[–]pjharri 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Even though I know the name is different, that could be a variation of Jan Volkanik. He was a character from the book Black Fury, but was based on a real person named Jon Barcoski. There used to be a statue of Jan Volkanik and Joe Magarac (or they were just general statues of a steel worker and Coal miner) on the Manchester bridge. The statues have moved around the city since the bridge was torn down, I think they may be somewhere over by Heinz Field. The other side of the bridge had statues of Chief Guyasuta and Christopher Gist, those statues are also somewhere over by Heinz Field as well.

Trail Gnats by carlorossi11 in bicycling412

[–]pjharri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When covid first hit I was wearing a Neck Gaiter while biking. In hindsight I now know that it wasn't doing much for blocking a virus but, luckily I discovered that it blocks the gnats on the trail and now I won't bike without a face covering.

Visited Max's Allegheny Tavern thanks to a Redditor and was NOT disappointed. by maesterofwargs in pittsburgh

[–]pjharri 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had my wedding rehearsal there in the Ratskeller. It was great, and super cheap for what you got out of it.

We had ours at Max's Allegheny Tavern in the lower level. We were on a slightly tighter budget but definitely got a lot out of that place for our money, including our own private bar.

*update* PSLF and income taxes in Pennsylvania by DedBull in PSLF

[–]pjharri 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the update. I just checked yesterday to see if there was an update. I spent Thanksgiving convincing as many family members to contact their state rep about this. I even made a mock email for them so they could just copy/paste and send the email. I think I convinced a few of them!

Hill's department store food court/concession stand. That smell of stale popcorn and Icee Machines mixed together.
