Pirates Fans Enjoy PNC Park Movie Night, Look Forward To Second Half Of Season
PITTSBURGH (KDKA) -- The Pirates will go back to work after the All-Star break on Friday playing out of town, but thousands of fans filed into PNC Park Thursday night for something unusual.
It was PNC Park Movie Night.
Fans paid $5 to watch the baseball coming-of-age film, "The Sandlot."
"It's awesome. I got to bring my daughter out for a movie at PNC Park," said Don Hawthorne, of Hopwood.
Amy Bobuk, of Duquesne, said she always wanted to see a movie at PNC Park.

Unfortunately, there was a downpour of rain right as the film started, but unlike baseball, there was no rain out with movie night.
Luckily, the clouds parted 15 or 20 minutes later.
It's unclear when the last movie night at PNC Park was held, but we know in 2003, fans were welcomed in to watch "Angels in the Outfield."
