TRIVIA: What do Pittsburgh and Boston have in common? (champions, sport, cup)

[Craziaskowboi]

They are the only cities in the U.S. with at least five Super Bowl, World Series and Stanley Cup championships.

Discuss.

Big sports towns, I suppose. That's essentially all I've got... .

[Bondurant]

There is the slight inconvenience of Boston not having a NFL team.

If New England counts as a Boston team (and metro-wise, it surely does) then you have to add New York to that total.

PS - Why only count Super Bowls, and not all NFL titles? Seems arbitrary. But then, you'd have to add Chicago to the list.

Literally what immediately came to mind when I saw this question was to respond "the very worst highway infrastructures in the U.S.

Well, they're in some of the oldest parts of the Country, after all... .

Black and yellow for a lot of colors? (Pirates, steelers, Bruins, Penguins...)

[seamusnh]

So, Boston would then be the only city in America with five Super Bowl, World Series, Stanley Cup, and NBA championships. Despite being a city with only one team in each sport (Metro NYC has 9 teams; Chicago, LA...).

That I hate just about every team from both of them (excluding the Patriots, who I don't mind, and the Bruins, who I merely dislike)?

And if the bolded is true, then why count World Series and Stanley Cup titles from before the 1966 season (the year the first Super Bowl was played)?
