Flight information is set. Transportation from Newark to the city is set. Hotel is confirmed. The Nike fashion show is at 10 am on Wednesday. The only question mark is whether the plane is on time.
With the advice of SilverPanther in NYC, we are going to meet at the Spring Lounge Tuesday night around 7. It’s a decent location near the subway, and a solid draft beer selection.
Hoping there’s a good turnout to talk Pitt football, basketball, lost weekends in Oakland and anything else.
Just find the people that answer to the phrase, “Mark May will drop-kick Lou Holtz this year.”
Silver, if you see Mayor Bloomberg coming thru the door, you better take your pipe and quickly hide in the restroom.
LOL
There is a very cool spot on the corner of Spring and Sullivan – two blocks East – called the Soho room. Nice corner barroom with friendly staff.
Also a great Pizza place called Ben’s one block further east on Spring bet Thompson and Bway.
But hey, there’s a ton of places in Soho. As I’ll be running behind, I’ll catch up wherever you guys end up.
Don’t douche-up on us…..
Are there any Pitt bars in the city? I tried to look last year but didnt really find any consensus answers. With so much anticipation this season the last thing I wanna do is watch the game with my three (yes, three) UPS roommates.

Something else we’ve lost…just drove through Oakland the other day after softball – CJ Barney’s is now a Dunkin Donuts. WTF???
No Sanctuary, no Zeldas, no Attic, no Beehive, and now no CJ’s (or Boomerangs, or whatever it’s been called recently). Even Caleco’s is now a restaurant…
