As a young Steelers fan one of the worst moments I’ve personally felt was watching Pittsburgh fall to the Green Bay Packers in Super Bowl XLV. The Steelers battled the Packers in a high-scoring affair in Dallas, ultimately losing 31-25 to QB Aaron Rodgers and a prolific passing attack.
I remember watching the game in my Steelers man cave basement, completely beside myself with feelings of sadness and disappointment as the Packers hoisted the Lombardi Trophy. Even in the late stages of the game, with Green Bay ahead, the belief was that Pittsburgh was going to find a way to come back and win the game, just like it had done numerous times before.
