Growing up in Central PA you would find houses and families divided over who followed who. For the most part, you were either all Pittsburgh or all Philadelphia (not sure who would choose that life) but for the most part, my upbringing was mostly geared towards the Pittsburgh Penguins.
Typically as a kid, you follow whomever your parents follow but for me… that was not the case. For me, it was growing up around Pens fans that led me to bleed Black and Gold. From either watching games on a dodgy, foiled antenna TV, trading hockey cards, or literally fighting over who would win in a fight… I was all in!
