Are You Missing Any Money? Plus Public Art and the Pirates
It’s the Friday news roundup! The full squad is here celebrating the return of beloved Pirate Andrew McCutcheon and looking into how a revamped city commission could bring more equitable artworks to the area. Plus, how to look for unclaimed cash that could be waiting for you.
As always, our Friday shows are powered by great local journalism.
- You can find the state’s website for unclaimed money here.
- See the utterly chill-inducing moment in 2013 when Reds pitcher Johnny Cueto dropped the ball in front of a blackout crowd in Pittsburgh. And here’s a deeper explanation of what was going on in Pirates ball that year.
- If you’re interested in a season preview for the Pirates, check out Jason Mackey’s article
