North Shore

I'm going to take a guess when I say that the North Shore is probably the most popular neighborhood in this city. Why? North Shore is home to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Oh yeah, the other sports team in the city, the Pittsburgh Pirates *cough*haha*cough*. Lately, I've been spending some quality time at Heinz Field since I'm the proud season ticket holder for the University of Pittsburgh football team. GO PITT! Yeah, I have to say, I am very happy with my decision to buy season tickets to watch my school play this season.


Pittsburgh lovessssssssss its football team. If you're not a Steeler fan, then you might as well be an alien from Mars. It reminds me of the J.D. quote from Heathers: "This is Ohio. If you don't have a brewski in your hand, you might as well be wearing a dress." Steeltown kind of has the same mentality. Haha. This town idolizes the starts of the Steelers. I've witnessed this town tear down its players when the team starts losing. Anybody remember Kordell Stewart? Anyone? Anyone?


Sports aside, I like the North Shore for its scenic beauty. It feels downright calming to walk down by the river, and when the weather's nice, taking a look across the river to downtown Pittsburgh is quite a sight! If you're visiting from out of town, then I highly recommend exploring the North Shore.
