Jeff Bagwell Pittsburgh Three Rivers Stadium Home Run Marker w/ Team LOA

This marker commemorates the 9th upper deck HR hit in Pittsburgh's Three Rivers Stadium history. This marker was placed over the spot where Bagwell blasted a roughly 460 ft HR into the left field seats in 1991. It came with a team LOA issued at the auction for stadium assets in 2001 after Three Rivers closed.

That's pretty cool, even if it was for the wrong team

Used to be my favorite part of Three Rivers in the 80's when I was a kid, me and my buddies roaming the empty, cavernous upper decks in search of the HR seat markers, many hit by our beloved "Pops" Stargell!

That's really cool. As someone with one of these markers, I would love to know a bit more about them. Did they place them over the seats? Did anyone ever sit up there, or did they preclude people from sitting in any seat with a marker on it? It would be neat to find out more about these artifacts.

From my memory, we did sit in those seats, basically just to say we did, and they had painted numbers on the seat back (facing out to be seen, where your back would rest). I also remember the views from up there were horrible and it was rare anyone was ever sitting up there anyway!
