One of the uglier logos...

Pittsburgh, PA National League Three Rivers Stadium 600 Stadium Circle Pttsburgh, PA  15212 412-323-5000 Directions: Check their website below for directions to the ballpark.  In February, 2001, Three Rivers Stadium was demolished as part of construction of the Pirates new ballpark, PNC Park. General Area in State:  Western part of the state; not far from the Ohio border. Host Hotel:   I can't remember where I stayed.

Date visited: 7/15/97 Ease of getting to; getting in and out of: I took a water taxi from Station Square and it was wonderful.  Didn't have to deal with traffic.  It's the first (and only) time I've ever taken a boat to a stadium.  Check out www.stationsquare.com for more information.  Radio Announcer: Didn't listen                                             Website:  Excellent.  One of the better ones.  1/13/02 - the new format of the webpage isn't as nice as the previous one but you can still get to information needed.  There's just a whole lot of 'stuff' on these new standard MLB pages.                                                          Official website:  www.pirateball.com Customer Service: Good.
