... are going to the Super Bowl!
I might have mentioned in the past that Tom is from Pittsburgh and, as required, is a huge Steelers fan. I must say that I feel lucky to have married into a Steelers family. It is a fun team to watch. I love how people refer to their playing as "Steelers Football." You won't hear anyone say, "They just aren't playing Jets football." And the fans are unmatched. First, they are
everywhere. They mourn a loss and celebrate a victory like no other!!!
I might have also mentioned that this particular group of people are the
Steel City Connection. And we just got a new home at the University Bar and Grill. Last week's game was a little overwhelming for the new place. They just didn't realize that Tom was serious when he said, "Expect about 130 to 150 people". Oops.
Well, they had their game face on last night. They were more than prepared. And they were awesome. We didn't have to wait any time at all for anything ordered. The place was packed. And loud.

Ha...great post! Fun night for sure...and clearly I have lots to learn!!
So good seeing you...looking forward to The Super Bowl! (Wow, did I really just say that?!?)
So, I totally dislike the Steelers! Go Packers!
Can we still be friends? :)
Yes. Yes, you DID just say that! Does that mean you'll be joining us for it? It's fun, isn't it? Hard not to become a fan... My advice, don't fight it.
Ann, I think we had this problem a few years ago when we beat the Cardinals. We survived that. I think we'll be fine.
GO STEELERS!
There will be NO talk of the other team on this blog! Christy, please block Ann for 2 weeks....haha.
Sincerely,
The Steelers Husband.
Just checking in to see how you all were doing. Marcy
Hahaha Tom! I promise not to mention that "other team" again. I know how diehard you Steelers fans are! I really have no allegiance to the "other team", I'm pretty much for any team who plays against the Steelers :)
