Pittsburgh Pirates
Population: 302,407 (2017)
PNC park


Y'all are out of your minds.

The Pittsburgh metro area is twice the population of NOLA's.

Pittsburgh is more affluent than NOLA.

Pittsburgh's park is beautiful and iconic.

You're not getting the Pirates.

I think it will be tough in the modern era to introduce a major sports franchise in a city that isn't a particularly important business city. While San Antonio has a better size argument than NO, I think they would have the same challenge.
