Ok, even if the Steelers aren't very super yet this season, you still gotta
watch all the games. And if you're out of town, the Post-Gazette now provides a
list of bars in all 50 states (and some other countries) where Steeler fans
congregate to watch the game.

Heh! That's pretty cool! They should have ordered the list by State then
City, though.

For what it's worth, looks like they identified the Tucson, AZ Steeler bars
correctly. :-)

I've seen the list before and it looks like they've added a few more bars.

The list for Arizona includes a few places that might get 3 or 4 Steeler
fans per week; those places do show the games, but maybe on a small screen
in the corner with the sound off. On the other hand, anyone who ever finds
themselves in the Phoenix area and can get to Harold's in Cave Creek (about
30 to 45 minutes from downtown Phx) it's an experience that will be well
worth the drive. Call ahead a few days if possible and reserve a seat. They
have a huge fan turnout, it's a dedicated Steeler bar, they get former
players stopping by now and then (saw Andy Russell and Cliff Stoudt there
together one day, for example), and during the playoffs they have to put up
a tent out back to hold all the people.

I watched most of the 2004 season there. By the playoffs, there were
thousands of people showing up. By the AFCC there were an estimated 4,000,
IIRC. It was pretty incredible. Not sure how it was this past season,
because I had moved to Wisconsin, but I'm guessing it was phenomenal.

Great!

Let's hope we don't need this, but the P-G might want to think about
making a list of churches that are holding pre-game prayer vigils.

One question though. When the hell do you ever leave town?

Its good for those who have left.

My neighbor bought a DirecTV dish and got NFL Sunday Ticket so he can
watch Steelers games when they're not shown on local TV.
