CLEVELAND — Of all the places to confuse Cleveland with, Pittsburgh might top the list as the worst.
But that’s exactly what happened Tuesday night when Bruce Springsteen took the stage at Quicken Loans Arena.
“Party noises Pittsburgh!” Springsteen shouted while trying to fire up the crowd.
He quickly added, “And Cleveland, too.”
Audio of the gaffe was posted on YouTube and fans took to Twitter to point out Springsteen’s mistake.
Omg. @springsteen show in Cleveland and Bruce just said "good evening Pittsburgh"

Bruce Springsteen just shouted out Pittsburgh from the stage. The only problem is that he's in Cleveland.
