All I know is there are a lot of Steeler's fans around here! Just like everywhere because they are the best team!

I'm from Philly too.. People support their Panthers around here.. I'll give them credit.. It's not like Eagles fans passion though. We're looney.. Listen to sports talk on the radio when you get here and you'll see the difference.

Panther fans kill me they start leaving during the 3rd quarter! Guess they don't want to be stuck in traffic. Go figure!

I'm from Cleveland which a huge Browns Town(no matter what their record is), it's different here, you'll see.

If there was a team here I think it would do fine.
Hell last year my alma mater (ECU) played VT and there were 68,000 I think at BoA Stadium. And that's a 4hr drive from ECU and 2-3 from VT.

It looks about like this in the surrounding parking lots. 1,000's upon 1,000's that tailgate. Probably 4-8 blocks that surround the stadium. I'd say it's a fairly supportive city of their Panthers.



Tons of people cooking

Actually, I would say more actual fans than bandwagoners. There are a lot of Pittsburgh fans everywhere because so many people move away from PA.

I would say its pretty BIG. But Eagle fans take nasty to another level. I don't think I have seen anything like that anywhere, not even Oakland
