Pitt's game against no. 17 Lung Cancer U last night was played in Pittsburgh. The stadium is located at what is called The Point, not far from where the colonial Fort Pitt was. Saturday morning before the games got started I picked The Pickwick Papers off my shelf to give it another try. I opened it randomly but to a page that I had previously dog-eared. On page twenty-nine my eyes widened and my brain broke as I read the time and place of a duel in Merry Old:
"...at sunset this evening, in a lonely field beyond Fort Pitt."
