Yes, it's your intrepid blogger. This rather pro-Pittsburgh sign was affixed at the end of a long sting of barricades in the Comerica Park parking lot between the stadium and Woodward. I'm guessing the rental company is from Pittsburgh. Anyway, as I'm rooting for the Steelers on this one, this shot seemed appropriate. (And, yes, that's a Steelers logo on my cap. Sorry, Sam. Hey, I love the Sox, spot me that.)
The bag? Yes, I spurred the local economy a bit. A Super Bowl XL cap and t-shirt have found their way to my house. A word of advice, as well.
My intial stop was at the Comerica Park retail shop which is one of the official sites for SBXL merchandise. I spotted a cap I liked, but it was $36. It was a basic adjustable cap with the official logo on it plus a Detroit February 5, 2006 tag line. That seemed a bit pricey. Sure enough, a walk about a block south of the park yielded the identical cap for $22. Everything in the store had much lower prices than the Comerica Park stop. Not surprising, but the price difference was rather significant. It was literally worth the block or two walk.
