Pittsburgh in Frommers Top 13 for 2008

How does this happen or rather, how much did they pay to get this acknowledgment? Ok, 2008 is the 250th birthday for the city, but there a lots of cities older and who can pronounce, let alone celebrate, a semiquincentennial.

But there it is in black and white on official Frommer's web stationary.

Who knew Pittsburgh belonged with the likes of Morocco, St. Lucia, Quito, Cardiff, Wales, Romania, Seoul, and a couple places in Nova Scotia and Micronesia? Of course, the Burgh has to hang with the likes of Denver and New Orleans, which is fine, but New Jersey? Some strange stuff going on here.

Even stranger is that the Burgh is on the list twice. The American Whiskey Trail makes the cut. It's a conglomerate of several sites and areas, including the area where the whiskey rebellion occurred, which is of course western Pennsylvania. Come to the Burgh and you can knock of two of the 13 on the list in one fell swoop!! That alone should make it THE destination for 2008.
