Pittsburgh Radio: Pirate Fest Draw Fans, Media

KDKA 1030 AM PM Drive host Bill Rahkopf talks with new Pirates Catcher Chris Stewart
PirateFest has been in existence for 24 years, and it was popular and well attended even during the team's lean years. So it was no surprise when Pirates enthusiasts came streaming through the doors in large numbers as soon as the two-day event opened at the David L. Lawrence Convention Center in Downtown Pittsburgh on Saturday morning.

Fans of all ages came to the indoor baseball carnival with a little more bounce in their step and their heads held a little bit higher following a 2013 campaign that saw the Pirates win 94 games during the regular season, then defeat the Reds in the National League Wild Card Game before losing to eventual NL champion St. Louis in the Division Series.
