Steelers Bars January 16, 2006
Posted by Patrick in : Sports, Pittsburgh , trackbackAdrian links to a pretty neat site that lists most (or all of) the Steelers bars in the world. I can’t believe how many there are. Five in Alaska. Three in North Dakota. And then even some random places outside the US like Portugal, Hong Kong, Qatar, and even Iraq. There’s an idea for a coffee table book or something. Get some photos and stories of the patrons and owners of these places. Unfortunately, you could really only see these bars in action sixteen days out of the year. It’d have to be a team effort. You’d need people scattered throughout the US (or world!). Who wants to do it?

Forget a book - I’d like to see that on film.
That’s what I’m talking about. Maybe a documentary of sorts? Maybe you and my brother can handle New York. I think I counted eleven bars in the five boroughs alone!
There was this guy at Shanghai Kelly’s filming the people there as part of an independent documentary he was working on. He was also at games in San Diego and a few other cities as well as a couple in Pittsburgh. I think it was more about Steeler fandom rather than about Steelers fans, though, I think.
Yeah I’ve actually been to one listed for New York “Ship of Fools”. I don’t watch the games there though because the screens are kinda small. I might try other places next year.
