It is a Pittsburgh tradition.

I am a recent transplant, but I am not going to mess with tradition.

It’s a Pittsburgh tradition, but not in the degree that it’s made out to be. I’m willing to venture that fewer than 5% of Pittsburgh residents engage in the practice. It’s an extreme minority of assholes behaving selfishly that has somehow been elevated to the level of local tradition.

I would respectfully disagree with that one. Everyone that does it in my neighborhood are multi-generational yinzers that are very nice about it.
