A: 20 out of 20

Nobody outside of the US cares about football, esp because outside of the US the word FOOTBALL means an entirely different sport. A sport that mainly involves a ball played with feet. But I digress...

So I really only know about the G20 with all of its formal/informal events from what the media tells me. I was very disappointed when I woke up this morning to learn that some protesters are taking pleasure in breaking windows and trashing the streets of this great city.

But this news snippet from the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette made me smile:

A little before 9 p.m. hundreds of people were gathered on Schenley Plaza, the closest they could get to Phipps Conservatory where the heads of state convened for dinner. With the heavy police and protestor presence, things felt dicey until one familiar chant at least momentarily broke the tension: "Bill Peduto: great moment in Pittsburgh - someone just started a Here We Go Steelers cheer and everyone (almost everyone) joined in"

STEELERS CHANT at one of the biggest international forums. Beautiful.

Furthermore, this article describes how Pittsburgh hospitals are more than prepared for these protests:

Allegheny General staff doesn’t expect the [onflux of patients from the] G-20 summit to be “any worse than a Steelers game.”
