It was 'Buc Night' at the ballpark which means $1 admission, $1 fountain drinks and $1 hot dogs. Apparently, organizers miscalculated then ran out of buns.
Of course, bun-less folks took to Twitter to complain.
Only the @pirates could screw up $1 hotdog night by running out of buns w/ a crowd of less than 20,000. #bucn pic.twitter.com/b1R0zOWXtl

The Pirates play the Cincinnati Reds Thursday night at PNC Park. You'll have to pay full price for a hot dog, and hopefully, it comes with a bun.
