Mike Tomlin Looking For High Intensity Level At Friday Night Lights Practice

The Pittsburgh Steelers Friday Night Lights practice returns to Latrobe Memorial Stadium tomorrow night and at his press conference today via Steelers.com, Mike Tomlin was asked what the practice means to the team.

“I love it because it’s a yellow bus ride. It’s nostalgic for the players. It’s a cool way to stay connected to the local fans, and the proximity of the fans makes it a cool and unique experience, and it’s just awesome. If you’re a football lover, you love Friday night lights.”

The nostalgia of the whole event harkens players and coaches back to the days of high school football, especially with the yellow bus ride.
