Time Travel: Some Mid-1980s Fun with City Youth and a Decades-Old Hot Dog Shop Situated in Clarksburg

By Dick Duez on January 16, 2022 from History Blog

See anyone you know? This photo, believed to be from the mid-1980's, shows a group of young city boys and one of their mothers likely leving a Pittsburgh Pirates game at Three Rivers Stadium. According to Chad Fowler, who is shown second from the right, he believes he is joining in on a trip for his brother's Bridgeport all-star baseball team. Shown, from left, Jimmy Christie, Jef Foster, Shane Roupe, Adam Fowler, Chad Fowler, and Joyce (Fowler) King. Fowler said the photo was provided to him by Shae Roupe.
This business was located on East Pike Street east of Notre Dame High School. Today, it is a lot. Anyone remember this establishment?
 
Editor's Note: This ongoing photo feature of pictures from Bridgeport and throughout the Mountain State is part of local historian Richard "Dick" Duez's collection. , the unofficial historian of Bridgeport, would appreciate any scanned photos emailed to him for use here or to include in his ongoing effortsDuez to preserve local history.
