So I didn't mean to turn PSAMP into "what celebrity or musician is currently wearing a Pirates hat or something similar" lately, but this stuff is just happening rapid-fire and I'm sleeping in the bed I've made. It's like a bed with all-wool bedding, I'm both totally comfortable and incredibly annoyed.

I hate cutting into your mini pony submissions but here's one I thought I had featured years ago but can't seem to find. During some episode of That 70s Show, Eric Forman reminisces about a prior birthday where his mom got him a mini pony. And he's all bummed. Which is the complete opposite reaction to this situation.

Meet Frank C. Agnone II, Supervising Producer for South Park. He's been a producer for as long as the show has been on-air, 16 glorious seasons. He has no Wikipedia page, which is staggering. But his IMDb page shows he's originially from San Diego.

And yes that is an authentic Primanti Brothers t-shirt as well as a framed Mean Joe Greene Steelers jersey. I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that the other framed jersey on our left Frank's right is also Pittsburgh-related. Call it a Black and Gold hunch.

There's also a solid chance the autographed Starter hockey sweater is a Kings Ziggy Palffy #33. Guess who also wore #33 with the Pens, albeit briefly:

I went to watch the 15th season last night, and decided to check out the 6 Days to Air: The Making of 'South Park' mini-documentary that came with the 2nd-most-recent-season. It shows the creative window and how fitting an entire 30-minute-episode's process in such a cramped timeframe brings out the best and worst in Matt Stone and Trey Parker and the rest of the squad. But the headaches create amazing television.

The above screengrab comes near the end of the 45-ish minute documentary. There's only like a day or 2 left before the episode airs and the guys are still way behind. Only Agnone pops up with all this Pittsburgh stuff randomly and then the episode gets done and the brilliance of HUMANCENTiPAD is the end result. We'll partially credit Pittsburgh sports.

That also means Agnone has seen the show parody locals like LaMarr Woodley and Ben Roethlisberger. Or watched Stephen Sondheim become a fellow Steelers fan. That's called letting a Pittsburgh sports fan just go and be super-producer...

Thanks to Jason for this. He says:

seems like this guy should win mini pony o'day. (courtesy of Mark Madden - I have no idea who this is)

Hot chicks should always hang out with mini ponies.

Thanks to Mike for this. He says:

my brother sent me this from the village in Lake George, NY where he lives

I'm in NYC, so right now, I'm technically in the same state as this awesome mini pony. Get real.

Thanks to Matt for this. He says:

word

no idea someone texted it to me. I have weird friends.

Not entirely sure what that is but I'm renaming this feature Miniature Thing of the Day just for today. Llama? Mini Llama of the Day? I just want to correctly categorize this.

Thanks to Catlin for this.

Just spotted a billboard for a free "mini pony zoo" near the Fla./Ga. border!

Looks like my next trip is planned.

We now have legit lists of all(~ish) PSAMP posts that feature Pittsburgh Sports Stuff in Music and in Hip Hop.

There are 2 known internet memes involving mini ponies that have sprung forth in the past year and a half or so. The first was during the 2011 London Riots. We've featured 3 versions of the fake London Riots mini pony at PSAMP (1, 2, 3).

The other is about a year more recent. A few months ago, there was this incredible mini pony standing outside someone's door late at night. Original image and the first riff on it was on PSAMP back in July 2012. Now we have the one above. I would probably feature any version of either picture, even if someone just wrote POOP all over the front.
