Pittsburgh Pirates fans flock to stadium for Mac Miller bobbleheads now reselling online for hundreds
Pittsburgh Pirates fans found something to cheer for this week, and it wasn’t the team’s performance.
On Saturday, the club honoured the late rapper Mac Miller with a tribute night that included chalk art, a fan wall, and a limited-edition bobblehead that’s already turning into a collector’s item.

Mac Miller, a Pittsburgh native who passed away in 2018 at age 26, remains a cultural icon in the city. Fans packed PNC Park early for a chance at the exclusive bobblehead.
Lines formed well before the first pitch, with many fans securing the giveaway while others missed out entirely.
Within hours, listings for the Mac Miller bobblehead appeared on resale platforms like eBay, some fetching prices in the hundreds.
