Just got a fabulous idea...

Post by fourtKNOX »

not to jinx the plan or anything... buttttttttttttt lets say that the ioc does wint the slots licensce and the pens do get a new arena... would it not be absolutely awesome... that the pens give the rights to IRON CITY beer... to promote their beer sales....

if the pens agreed to this in the for front... helping two pittsburgh corporations climb out of the cellar would be absolutely marvelous...

then... if the pens did that... possibly the stillers and pirates would follow in suit... come on now... do the rooneys need the money from coors or bud light to sale their beer at heinz... i dont think so...

and wouldnt it be awesome to see all the ppl coming to pnc park for the allstar game to choose between iron city... ic light... and old german! :P

ahhhhh my mouth is watering!

If your mouth is watering for any IC product, you might want to have the doc examine your taste buds to make sure they're functioning properly :wink: . But then again, I'm spoiled by all the wonderful microbrews here in Wisconsin. The stores sell beers from all voer the country, but I have yet to find IC among them :D

My mouth is anything but watering. Ugh. Having to drink IC and only IC at a Pens game? No thanks.

It's a cool idea from the standpoint of saving Pittsburgh Brewing, but I don't want them getting exclusive rights @ a new arena.

As far as the Steelers following suit... no way they ever make IC exclusive at Heinz Field. Rolling Rock is king there. As it should be :D Mmmmm. I work with a guy who has major rolling rock ties, and they got 35 free SB tix from RR, through the Steelers.
