Description: We always thought that the Pipers were named after steelworkers who made steel pipe. But actually they were named for Scottish Bagpipers! This is still appropriate however, given Andrew Carnegie's Scottish heritage! This is a rarely seen alternate logo for the Pittsburgh Pipers basketball team, used in some advertising promotions. Note the bagpipe itself is a basketball!
