I'm student in Pittsburgh from Virginia - I've been a Hokie fan since I was a kid. I'm addicted to college football and I've been looking to go to a Pitt game, so I figure the Sept 15th game against VT is a perfect time to do it.

That said, I don't know what the tailgating atmosphere is like for UPitt games. Could I get away with hoping around the lots in North Shore or should we rely on our own tailgate setup? I know that there's new development in North Shore that's putting a crunch on parking, so I'm worried about getting a spot.

Is pregaming in North Shore worth it? Would I be better off pregaming in Oakland or in bars before the game?

Anyways, I'm looking forward to a good game and can't wait to see y'all in the ACC.
