I know some of yinz guys aren't too familiar with my home town, but even if you've never been to Primanti's, drank an arn or been dahntahn, if you're a football fan, you probably know who this guy is.
Franco Harris, along with other Steeler greats, spent yesterday touring 
South West PA yesterday, and I was able to catch them and a bunch of Steeler/Obama fans in the parking lot of Heinz field as they wound up their campaign swing with Dan Rooney, Judy O'Connor and Bob Casey at the home of the Steelers.
As Sen. Casey noted, the crowd was diverse. There were young and old, black and white (and I will add canine), all enjoying the beautiful Pittsburgh weather and listening to some their favorite Steeler legends tell us why they're supporting Barack Obama for President.
It was a diverse crowd, but we all had one thing in common. Pittsburghers, like the rest of the country are looking for something.
Rock on, Pittsburgh.
And thanks to the Steelers and friends for a great rally!

Excellent post and great shots. From reading your post it sounds like everyone had a great time- including the doggie.
Gobama!
