These are the reasons, when I lived in Pittsburgh, that I would always go to Pirates games, but never to Steeler games. Baseball fans are more civilized (or were in the 1970s/1980s) than the football crowd. I have never noted any excessive violence here in Cleveland when the Browns and Steelers play. 
   
  Well, I guess we all get to, "Wait until next year", now.

    Yeah, it has happened here the other way around too. They don't tell you those stories now do they. It's always a few drunks who spoil it for everyone. Like the time the Steeler fan came here, was having a great time even with Jag fans out in the parking lot before the game. Then the drunks decided to throw full plastic bottles at the guy. Fortunately for him, security was there and wisked him away before he got hurt. It didn't change his attitude about Jag fans because he said most were all very hospitible. It was once again the few drunks that spoiled his trip. So please don't generalize and state "shame on 'stiller' fans" because most Pittsburghers are just like the good folks here in Jacksonville, very hospitible. It's the evil in alcohol that does the devil's work.                   Signed,                  A Pittsburgh native who now resides in                  Jacksonville.Please note: message attached
