“Today concluded our Pittsburg Pirate Football Camp! It was a very exciting 3 days, where we truly feel our athletes that attended became not only better athletes but also young men of character,” said athletic director Triston Abron. “In today’s competition, we found out who had the best punting skills! Winning the 6th/7th grade group was Jeremiah Flores. Winning the 8th grade group was Nick Styles. The freshman group was won by Landon Graham... We are very excited about this year and the years to come in the Pittsburg Pirate Football Program. Stay hungry and Let’s EAT!”

The connection of the auto-racer/developer Carroll Shelby to the preeminent American muscle cars of the pre-regulation era, before 1970, makes him iconic still in American automotive history. The most expensive American car ever sold in an auction was a Shelby Cobra, which netted 14 million dollars, in 2016. In 2019, the Academy-Award-winning sports drama film, Ford v Ferrari, featured star actor, Matt Damon, playing the role of Shelby.
