The self-described sports “fanatic” and Birds fan joined 97.5 WIP’s Mike Missanelli with Lt. Gov. Austin Davis to talk about the upcoming game and make a wager on who will win.When it comes to the Eagles-Steelers rivalry ahead of this Sunday’s game in Philadelphia, no Pennsylvanian is spared, not even Gov. Josh Shapiro.
“You cannot bullsh-t your way through sports,” Shapiro told reporters in Harrisburg after the annual Christmas tree lighting on Tuesday. “You have to be loyal to the teams that you like. “I think this is going to be an unbelievable game,” Shapiro said. “I can cheer for the Steelers when they’re not playing the Birds, but I think you got to be true to your sports teams and be honest with folks about that.”
Shapiro’s No. 2, Lt. Gov. Austin Davis, also joined the call, identifying himself on-air as “Austin from Pittsburgh.” Davis, the youngest lieutenant governor in the country,On WIP, the two politicians made a wager that if the Eagles win, Davis will provide Shapiro’s office with the best food from Pittsburgh.
