Another ‘Burgh thing:Chicken on the hill

When I was in college, I worked for a pool company and laboratory during the summer months. I would clean Willie Stargell's pool on Friday. One Friday the maid forgot to lock up his two watch dogs. I ended up on the pump house roof for a couple of hours.

Willie came home and found me there. He started laughing and put the dogs indoors. He came out apologized and told me to knock before I left.

Very nice man. He apologized again and handed me an envelop of game tickets. I was a poor college student and game tickets were beyond my means. I enjoyed that summer and it was worth every minute I spent on that hot metal roof.
