Just got home from San Diego. It was a birthday weekend for Mrs. Fan and me. Both turned %#$@^ years old.

We are spent. Voice is gone. Broker than the Clintons leaving the White House. But it was the best live sports experience of our lives.

Seriously, that stadium was about 60% - 70% Steelers fans. We owned the tailgates, the town, the stadium and then the momentum in the second half. The noise was insane.

When Bell scored that TD the place was vibrating it was so loud. Then the official came out after the review. The place was silent. Then the words "After further review, the ruling on the field stands." Then another eruption. It was insane. No words will describe it. We stayed in there and rocked that home stadium of ours for about 30 minutes. After that - tailgate round two for about an hour and a half.

Finished up the night with In-N-Out. Life is good.

Pictures later
 
Nice. I was there with my wife, daughter and son-in-law. Our seats were behind the Steelers bench, right at the 50 yard line, about 5 rows up. Great view, despite the minor irritation of having the camera trolley in our way sometimes. Pre-game tailgating:

Not hijacking, Dj ... just thought we could combine our photos in one thread. More from yesterday's pre-game and game:

The guy in the t-shirt is Frenchy Fuqua. The dude in the chair with his wife is Yancy Thigpen. The pool scene was taken at a hotel we took over. Party everywhere. Insane.
