Now for a word about Hunt Auctions Celebration of the Pittsburgh Pirates show......
 
Pathetic.

The admission was free. This was the highlight.

One of the points in the radio ads was the show would have the region's leading memorabilia dealers.

The show had two dealers and one of them was Hunt Auctions.

When I arrived around 1:00 p.m. at Hall E on the first floor of the David L. Lawrence Convention Center Andrew McCutchen was getting up from the end of his signing session. There was no line.

I paid for parking about a half mile from the show at 12:47 p.m. and returned to the vehicle at 1:14 p.m.

The worst show I have ever attended.

I live in the area and didn't even hear it advertise.

Appears to be a "thin" region for leading memorabilia dealers.

It was advertised during Pirate radio broadcasts on 93.7 FM the Fan (KDKA FM). Believe me, you missed nothing because there was nothing to miss.
