Steelers Home Opener

Before my parents left on Great Race weekend; they stuck around for the Steelers Home Openers Game with my sister and myself. The game was on Monday Night Football so it worked out very well!

Here we are pre-game...we always have lunch or dinner before games around the stadium somewhere.



We walked from lunch to the stadium and as we were passing the Sirius booth, outside of the stadium, Coach Cowher came to be interviewed. I LOVE HIM!!! He is our old coach and a great guy in general!!!


My sister was so excited she asked me to get a picture of her head with him in the background. We were soooo close!! How cute is she?!?!


I saw someone walking around the stadium with this jersey...I now know EXACTLY what I am going to do to my Antonio Brown jersey!! HA HA! PERFECT!


We had a flyover by the blimp on home opener night....actually, it just kept circling. It was pretty cool!


Here is a family selfie...


And lots and lots of fireworks... they were awesome!


More fireworks!!!



Another shot of the fireworks...I love Heinz Field - on game days it is electric in there!



We lost the game that night but it was still a pretty awesome night! So much fun!!! And the more time with my family the better!!!!!

Hope you all have a fantastic day!!!

Do you like football games?? College or National? When was the last time you spent with your family?

  2. Now that looks like a fun time! So glad you got to go to the game. I am not into football but my husband is. He watches both college and professional football. We see my son and daughter in law about every 10 days but our daughter and son in law are coming to town next week so there will be a lot of family time together. Otherwise we have to go to other states to spend time with both of our families.

  5. I like baseball, but not football. Still, I understand the excitement of going to the game instead of watching on TV. Glad you had fun.

  7. By the pictures, it looked like you had a great time. Not much on sports although I do like watching the Little League World Series when I remember. The next family gathering is Thanksgiving, but my Mom and I will be heading off again to attend a cross stitch weekend soon.

  12. I'm sooo jealous and believe me it's not a real popular thing to wear Steelers gear to a Packer game. It looks like a blast.

  13. We don't get as much family time as we would like. Very sad. You are SO blessed! I enjoy NFL. College football, not so much. We are Eagles fans (sorry!). Joe is from Philly so I'm a fan by marriage!
