Mark Cuban is trying to save a Pittsburgh institution. No, it’s not the Pirates.

Instead, the Mt. Lebanon native, Dallas Mavericks owner and “Shark Tank” star is working to revive the Original Hot Dog Shop in Oakland, a staple of the Pitt campus he once walked as an undergrad.

The restaurant shuttered last month after 60 years in business. Its iconic neon signs are now gone, to the dismay of many who spent their college days savoring its celebrated French fries inside its location at the intersection of South Bouquet Street and Forbes Avenue.

Cuban offered those folks some hope Thursday during an interview with Pat McAfee, himself a Pittsburgh-area native and West Virginia football alum who’s now an analyst for ESPN.
