Yesterday, I headed over to the Hollywood Theater in Dormont to check out Davy & Pete Rothbart’s My Heart Is An Idiot Found Tour.
Davy Rothbart started Found 10 years ago to share the best of found notes, items, even grocery receipts. My Heart Is An Idiot is the name of Davy Rothbart’s new book which hit bookshelves yeterday. Pittsburgh was the first stop on their 79 city tour (if you are reading this and live in one of the other 78 cities on the tour – I highly recommend you spend an evening with the Rothbarts). Davy shared some of his favorite found notes and his brother Pete performed some songs inspired by found notes. (And a huge thanks to Davy and the Found team for giving us some tickets to giveaway).
So what does this have to do with the Steelers… this morning I was scanning my Facebook feed and I was inspired to share this Facebook status message – I think it eloquently and accurately sums up how many Pittsburghers are feeling.
The following was posted by my friend Justin – we went to grade school together here in Pittsburgh. He now lives in Seattle and through the magic of Facebook we keep in touch about all things Pittsburgh.
4 more days until the best football team on the planet kicks off it’s season, I start wearing black and yellow everyday, Wiz Khalifa goes on repeat…
But most importantly, my The Pittsburgh Steelers family reunites and begins on the Stairway to 7. Lets do this!
Here we go!
Should you find your self in the Seattle area in need of a place to watch the Steeler game – Dino’s is the place. I have confirmed that some actually native Pittsburghers will be there for the first game of the season and likely every other game this season as well.
And because you are probably about to google this song any ways – here is a little black & yellow to help you make it til Sunday.
