They to used to have some downtown. I heard they closed due to theft, there was so much theft they couldn't make a profit. However that was back when they were just convenience stores pre-MTO, so if they were there now they'd be doing great. Not sure how much of this is accurate it's just what I have heard.

There was never a Sheetz downtown.

Yeah there was. I’ve seen photos of at least one on one of those vintage Pittsburgh IG accounts. In the 80s on the corner of Liberty and 9th where the now RIP (but opened in 1987) Sammy’s Corned Beef was. Seems like Sheetz had a pretty big presence in PGH for a period ending in the late 80s.
