1979. World Series and the 4th Super Bowl trophy. City of Champions. Pittsburgh, PA.

What, no Cup that year? ;^)

As an aside, I agree with you Dave that the Cup is THE most prestigious prize in sports, bar none.

No, sadly that was in the dark period before the Magnificent One came. It was the year that prompted the Pens to get on board, civic wise, and suit up in Black and Gold. They wore blue and white previously, but in the fever of the times, decided to do the logical thing.

I can't think of another city whose professional teams all wear the same colors.
