FSU @ Pitt - What to do in and around Pittsburgh, PA
« on: February 11, 2023, 12:00:15 AM »
My best buddy, and I, plan to attend FSU @ Pitt in November 2023. I have passed through, and passed by, Pittsburgh. Are there some high quality things we should see or do in Pittsburgh?

I am hoping my wife will attend with me if that makes a difference. My buddy's daughter is in college in Pittsburgh, so we will have to entertain women with things to do, as well as enjoying college football for ourselves.

Like to eat? Museums? What types of things are you looking for?

My brother told me Pittsburgh is a lot like our hometown of Dubuque because of its bluffs, funicular railroads, a major river, and an industrial base. 
If there are museums, and an entertainment district, those would be of interest. If there is some great ethnic food, I might be interested in that, and maybe a B & B should my wife travel with me. My wife cannot subsist on football alone (or maybe can't subsist on football at all).

I purchased our football tickets for FSU @ Pitt. If anyone here has a suggestion for an uplifting tourist visit in Pittsburgh the weekend of Nov. 3-5, 2023, please let me know.

I had a job interview there, in 1980.  I think there still is that funicular that goes up to the top of some hill where I had a decent dinner.

A dinner atop a bluff in a restaurant overlooking the Ohio River would be splendid! Thanks for the tip! I just checked online. I believe same is available!
