After a friendly Super Bowl wager between county officials in Pittsburgh's and Phoenix's respected counties, both counties will be able to benefit. While the Pittsburgh Steelers beat the Arizona Cardinals in a close game, all wagered items will be donated by both counties.
Allegheny County Chief Executive Dan Onorato will send:
$1,500 of Dick's Sporting Goods merchandise donated by the Pittsburgh-based company, a framed print donated by the Andy Warhol Museum, a case of Italian sausage courtesy of Ricci's Italian Sausage of McKees Rocks, five dozen Steelers Smiley Cookes from Eat'n Park, and Heart & Soul Healthy Lemonade from Heart & Soul foods of Gibsonia.
Maricopa County Board of Supervisors Chairman Max Wilson will send:
$1,050 of PING custom-made golf products (a Phoenix-based company), an official framed photograph titled "The Stronghold" by Arixona photographer David MacDougal, four dozen tamales courtesy of Mary Rose Wilcox, Maricopa County Supervisor and owner of the El Portal Mexican Restaurant, and four dozen homemade tortillas and four pounds of homemade chorizo from Carolina's Mexican Restaurant.
Onorato will give the golf equipment and photograph to the First Tee of Pittsburgh at the Allegheny County Housing Authority's Pleasant Ridge community in Stowe Township. The food items will be given to Rainbow Kitchen Community Services, a nonprofit human service agency based in Homestead that focuses on helping individuals and families in the Steel Valley.
