Where to Pee Downtown, Deer Problems and a Very Imperfect Lion

It’s the Friday news roundup! Many months after a study found we’re short on bathrooms downtown, city officials think they’ve finally found a solution — and they also want city residents to creatively take care of their deer problem. Plus, there’s a viral video floating around that asks a question Penn State fans should be very, very familiar with. 

We love to cite our sources!

• Pittsburgh has a new public restroom proposal for Downtown
• We talked about the lack of Downtown restrooms on the podcast last year
• Officials are proposing a controlled bowhunting pilot program in Frick and Riverview parks ahead of the fall hunting season
• Pennsylvania partners with Hunters Sharing the Harvest to coordinate donations to food banks. You have to use an approved meat processor, so check out their local options in advance.
• The Penn State Nittany Lion mascot took some heat in comedian Josh Mancuso’s latest spoof video. And, we think, for good reason. Check out the mascot vs the real animal
