Just an absolutely beautiful park. The baseball? Not always so pretty.<br /><br />While reading over your colors listings, I suddenly found I had Pearl Jam's "Black, Red, Yellow" in my head. Too bad that song was about Dennis Rodman's hair and not the Buccos.<br /><br />Good luck tonight. Obviously I'm hoping the Bucs pull off the win to get back to .500 overall and even the season series with your boys until September 15 when we meet again on your turf.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2700049103080920994.post-9217530195490033262011-05-11T21:52:55.912-04:002011-05-11T21:52:55.912-04:00I love watching baseball on tv from PNC park.

The Pirates adopted the color to match. The Steelers did the same. The Penguins did it later on so that all the teams in the city would be the same, although they have changed the gold to what they call "Vegas" gold. I don't even know what that means but they say it on broadcasts of games all the time.TheRealDFGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12124717470072185198noreply@blogger.com
