I just saw a poster for it, and I thought I would pass along the news. On July 1, Allegheny Cemetery, in Pittsburgh's Lawrenceville section, will be honoring it's most famous resident, Stephen Foster with, so help me Hannah! Do Dah Day. There will be bands, a free picnic, and a tour of the cemetery. Festivities commence at noon.
Foster isn't the only notable interred in Allegheny. Lillian Russell is also entombed among the city's late great. And the infamous Harry Thaw can be found among his family.
Yeah, I think it's weird too.
