๐Ÿˆ Pittsburgh native Pat McAfee will be featured in the seventh episode of ESPN+โ€™s Stephanieโ€™s Places, which will air on Wednesday, May 7. The documentary is produced by Omaha Productions.

The episode will feature Stephanie McMahon and Pat McAfee โ€” where they speak to Patโ€™s incredible career, from his humble beginnings, his inspiration taken from Stone Cold Steve Austin, his NFL career, the founding of his beloved show, and his stint with WWE.

McAfee credits his Pittsburgh roots for his work ethic and desire to always give back.
