  • The Decline and Fall of the Pirates Family
    Chapter One The Decline and Fall of the Pirates Family The 1980–1985 Seasons ♦◊♦ As over forty-four thousand Pirates fans headed to Three Rivers Sta- dium for the home opener of the 1980 season, they had every reason to feel optimistic about the Pirates and Pittsburgh sports in general. In the 1970s, their Pirates had captured six divisional titles, two National League pennants, and two World Series championships. Their Steelers, after decades of futility, had won four Super Bowls in the 1970s, while the University of Pittsburgh Panthers led by Heisman Trophy winner Tony Dorsett added to the excitement by winning a collegiate national championship in football. There was no reason for Pittsburgh sports fans to doubt that the 1980s would bring even more titles to the City of Champions. After the “We Are Family” Pirates, led by Willie Stargell, won the 1979 World Series, the ballclub’s goals for 1980 were “Two in a Row and Two Million Fans.”1 If the Pirates repeated as World Series champions, it would mark the first time that a Pirates team had accomplished that feat in franchise history. If two million fans came out to Three Rivers Stadium to see the Pirates win back-to-back World Series titles, it would 3 © 2017 University of Pittsburgh Press.

The offseason after the 1979 World Series victory was a whirlwind of awards and honors, highlighted by World Series Most Valuable Player (MVP) Willie Stargell and Super Bowl MVP Terry Bradshaw of the Steelers appearing on the cover of the December 24, 1979, Sports Illustrated as corecipients of the magazine’s Sportsman of the Year Award.

All the as-yet-unidentified perpetrator was able to make off with was a sizable donation jug which previously sat on the organization’s front desk. “There couldn’t have been more than 20 or 25 dollars in there,” said Dayle Reed, Food Bank manager. “When peo- ple come through here they put in a dol- lar or two. I clean it out every other month.” After Gosset Alarm Company noti- fied Ukiah Police officers, Food Bank employee Bonnie McCutcheon made her way over to the building. “I arrived at around the same time the cops did,” she said. “They had their guns out and they went through the building. I walked to the back of the parking lot and then they came back out and we did a walkthrough of the building.” After inspecting the pantry’s stocks and offices, it was determined nothing was missing except the donation jar.
