Growing up as a Steeler fan on the West Coast, Pittsburgh had always been a mythical land of black and gold football, the setting in which so many great moments I had watched on TV played out live. I knew a lot about the city thanks to my various adventures through the Steelers blogosphere, and I felt strangely connected to it despite having never been there, or anywhere close to it.
However, that finally changed as I got to live out my longtime dream last weekend to watch the Steelers take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at home in Heinz.
