I don't know what the priorities they have on each matrix, but Pitt fans only 5th? That seems like BS. NYG fans better than us?

I see NO other teams' fans attend away games like Steeler fan. It's not even close.

And no way should Browns fan be so low on the list; the fact they fill the stadium after going 1-15 and 0-16 is batty.
 
A good point in the comments section...

I beleive the Steelers have lost many fans over the last decade, due to poor leadership that tolerates player immaturity and very bad coaching, otherwise they may be at the top of the list, fan-wise.
 
A bullshit rating. and a bullshit comment supported by a troll. Another ****** thread, congrats.
 
There is no way that the Eagles and Patriots have better fan bases that the Steelers. The Cowboys and Giants I would say could rival us for top spot because of years of consistency win or lose.
The Patriots fan base developed for the most part in 2001 when Brady came along. As soon as they start the downhill trend and they will, watch the rats desert the ship.New Englanders will just go to the Bosox ,Celts and Bruins. The Eagles, really? As soon as they start losing again they will jump ship like they always do.

The Steelers, Giants and Cowboys win or lose, their fan bases have stayed consistent with their support of their teams. No team however travels like the Steelers fans, no team. I don't even live in the city where I was born and raised but make it a point to travel every year to attend two games coming from Houston. This year I'm going to Arizona and then one in the Burgh against the Brownies.
Fans travel from all over this country to support the Steelers, whether its coming to Pittsburgh or to a visiting stadium. Always plenty of black n'gold in the stands no matter where.

id say this is true
i know i havent attended a game or get as emotional as i use to about the steelers the last few years
i know thats p;art of the reason and coupled with the fact im getting older and wiser and realize that getting mad because everyone else doesnt rank us as the best fans, or the best franchise, or favorites to win the super bowl, or best team ever etc etc etc. is just immature and stupid
there are plenty of empty seat at heinz field and a pretty quiet crown most of the time..............theres got to be an explanation for that
 
Holy **** Booby, how many threads can you start? I thought Coach was bad but DAMNNNNNNN. Give it a rest man.

So a board with less on topic content is better than one with more. Note all the Gallywackers ruining football threads. They act like they are Granny Gertrude drinking ginger ale on the back porch.
 
pats fans didn't exist until after the second title win..and they will disappear once the run ends....

They have to be the biggest bandwagon fans there are. Just about every Patriots fan I run into who has something Brady on, I'll always strike up a conversation "Brady & Patriots fan huh?"

Them: "Oh yeah, big time, fanatical"

Me: "Brady, he's a far cry away from the likes of Steve Grogan, eh?"

Them: *Blank stare*
 
That's right: More playoff and Super Bowl wins would increase the fan base. Now you get it.

**** like it did for your Patriots? Who will abandon ship as soon as it slows down? We have and will have a great fan base regardless of winning because that is not all that matters to us. And Booby yes to many threads just junks up the place. You start way way way too many. Particularly from a freaking freeloader. Pony up or slow down should be the new rule.

We have better away fans than home fans. We're behind Green Bay, the Pats, and Dallas on the home front.

Empty seats, leaving early, quiet stadiums, and I'm driving from 200-300 miles out to scream my head off. Tried to get shushed by Yinzers saying I'm rooting too loud. I tell them to watch the game at home, where they won't have to worry about it.

The tickets are paid for but like was said in that other thread a lot has to do with the late games being dished out. I also think some of those old schoolers need to come off the tickets if they aren't showing.

Let this team bond without the drama, you will quickly see a large fan base show....

**** the Pats and the Ernie Adams they rode in on. KC should be on the list of home fans.
 
Horse ****. I'm from southern Indiana and besides Colts fans, I definitely see more Steelers than any other team.
I went to a game at Tennessee in 2014 and I'm telling ya, there were more Steelers fans at that game than titans fans by far. Granted, it's the Titans, but still!
 



I can tell yaz right now,...... I Tain't affiliated with NO ******* CHEATRIOTS fan / team / franchise. No SIR no way.






Salute the nation
