I retired a few years ago and have thought about working some again. Thought maybe a TSA Agent but I like getting paid for working.

Stay home, save your money and your sanity.
Pittsburgh is too small of a city and its horrible highway system will have difficulty accommodating 500,000 additional visitors.
That area where the stadium is located is very condensed and even hard to manauever after Steeler home games. Been over there many times attending games when coming to Pittsburgh and am familiar with it.
That city is not constructed to handle that many people and will be a mess.
Stay home and watch it in the comfort of your homes.

Sanity? way too late to save that. Not sure it was ever there to save.

All kidding aside, I do hope all goes well over those three days. I just hope there’s no destruction or violence. Police will have their hands full!

Large gatherings are something I will be avoiding for some time, unfortunately ........... hope all goes well with the draft and the Steeler's picks

500,000 plus over three days is a hell of lot of people for that city.
It’s not NY, LA, Chicago, or even Detroit, but a much smaller city and that’s lot of folks hitting that city over three days.
Hopefully all goes well but if I still lived there I still wouldn’t go to that area for a draft.

It really isn't. You're talking under 170,000 per day. Pittsburgh used to have 675,000 residents. Heck, they've claimed 650,000 fans for the Penguins Stanley Cup Parade in 2017 (no doubt extremely inflated) and yet somehow the city is still standing.

Not for me that day I retire no more working for the man (or woman)!

Other than the honey do lists.😅 And whatever projects I take on… but all by choice.

Sleep in, enjoy the great outdoors.

Life is good!

Green Bay has a population just over 100k and hosted 600k for the draft last year, it never felt overwhelming or overcrowded. It's not like everyone huddles around the stage.
