That's Picks-berg, yinz!

Spaw, when you were a youth did you go downtown to Three Rivers(Stadium) and root for the Steelers?(American Football team) Get out! Me, too! We were laughing and that...then we'd go to Primanti's(local sandwich shop which features fries and cole slaw on every sandwich) and get some beers and that('n nat is a catch-phrase meaning 'other things' usually undefined as to what 'things' they were)

I'm from Cleveland...this translating of 'Pittsburgeeze' is exhausting!
