city unity through sports
black and gold always make me think of pittsburgh. that is because all 3 of the city’s sports teams [steelers, pirates and penguins] use black & gold as their team colours. as stated in my last post, the penguins purposefully changed their colours to black & gold to be united with the other teams.
in atlanta all of our sports teams—save the braves—are named after birds. we have the thrashers [hockey], the hawks [basketball] and the falcons [football]. was this done on purpose? i’m not sure, but it’s kind of a strange coincidence.
can you think of any other cities where the sports teams are connected either by team colours or by commonalities among the team names?
