Pittsburgh experience.
The general population is not very nice. The stadium was cool. Kinda small but very good sightlines. We got a glipse of what Arrowhead's clublevel will be like in 2010. The enclosed concessions and bar was a pretty sweet deal. Very accessible and nice and warm before and after the game.
I have been to a lot of NFL stadiums and this seemed to be the smallest. I think the attendance was barely over 60,000.
What I found very strange about Steeler's fans, even with that sick ass defense the fans don't stand alot when the D is on the field. On the first drive for the Cowboys everyone was sitting down and when it was 3rd and 3 I was the only one in my section that was standing and cheering ( caught up in the moment). Also very disappointed that several 1000 people left at the start of the 4th Q when the Steeler's were down 13-3.
The terrible towel deal when the Steeler's tied the game and later took the lead was intimidating...very cool... TV does not do it justice.
Overall we had a really good time. The city has a lot to offer. The game was outstanding and the Yuengling flowed like 3 rivers!!!
