Pittsburgh, Green Bay Mayors Announce Wagers

Pittsburgh Mayor Luke Ravenstahl and Green Bay Mayor Jim Schmitt announced their Super Bowl wager on Thursday.

If the Steelers win, Mayor Schmitt will wear Steelers gear as he shovels snow from the walkway of a Steelers fan in Green Bay, and send his mayoral counterpart a selection of Green Bay food products (i.e., cheese).

Should the Packers win, Mayor Ravenstahl will shovel the walk at St. Rosalia church in Greenfield, the family church of Packers head coach Mike McCarthy and donate Pittsburgh food to a Wisconsin food bank.

Each Mayor has agreed to fly the other city’s flag at City Hall for a day.

Pennsylvania Governor Tom Corbett and Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker will participate in a promotional campaign to donate $25,000 to the Boys and Girls Clubs in Green Bay and Pittsburgh.

The losing governor will present that check while wearing the winning team’s gear.
