Heinz Field finally hosted a Steelers game full of fans. The North Shore packed with fans. Tailgate parties in full swing. I enjoyed reconnecting with fellow fans for the first time since 2019 including Carol, Ken S and Canada Glen among many more. Former Steelers kicker Jeff Reed showed up at the Renegade Tailgate. Team Highsmith was there too.
There were a lot of Raiders fans in Silver and Black. More than a few hundred visiting fans like most games. I estimate two or three thousand. Some were local contrarians. Three young fans I met hail from Latrobe.
