I was born and raised in Erie, PA, 120 miles north of the 'Burg. Born in '54, I became a Steelers fan circa 1970 after meaningless dalliances with the Packers and Jets. I went to Pitt in the late '70s, I lived in the Burgh for only one Super Bowl, SB XIII. Probably my favorite SB, the Stillers defeated the Cowboys 35-31.

I now live in Harrisburg, which surprisingly has scores of Steeler fans, despite being three hours east of Heinz Field. My wife is a rehabbed Steelers fan, being a Niners fan until the late nineties. We go to training camp every August. Our Stillers room is stuffed with memorabilia. My two favorite pieces -- one helmet signed by Franco and Rocky and another signed by Bradshaw and the greatest Steeler of them all, Jack! Every game day is an event for us. We hate all things Raven, and the red white and blue of the Boston Patriots. GO STEELERS!
