あらすじ・解説
I’ve mentioned before that I live in Baltimore. I’m not a Baltimore native, but I’ve lived here for about 18 years now. One thing I’ve learned in my nearly two decades in Charm City is that people here have no love for Pittsburgh. Really it all stems from the NFL rivalry between the Ravens and Steelers. But I haven’t quite been able to put my finger on why there seems to be so much tension between the two cities. I’ve visited Pittsburgh before and, from what I remember of my short time there, I thought it was a funky city that was a lot like Baltimore.
There’s the industrial history. Both cities have dozens of unique neighborhoods that each have their own personality. And of course there’s the pride from being a mid-sized city and having to compete with some of the big dogs for attention. As they always say, we are more alike than we are different.
So today I wanted to head out to the Steel City and learn more about why we should all give it a chance. It’s a close spot to try to run away to for a weekend, and they seem to always have something special going on. Whether it’s a big concert or event at one of their number of stadiums, or a food or beverage festival, Pittsburgh has plenty to do. Oh, and they have the NFL draft coming in 2026, which I know football fans will want to take advantage of.
Joining me today is Alex Kenzakoski. She’s a senior manager for public relations for Visit Pittsburgh. I hope you enjoy our conversation.
