Can you imagine how many more Steelers fans would have been at that Monday Night Game if the stadium could hold an additional 10 or 20,000 people?

Well if you watched the Ravens game last week they had alot of Skins fans in the stadium. They did not stand out as much as the steeler fans did at our game but I'd say we had well over 10% in their stadium. It was real clear when Cooley caught his first catch and you heard real clear Cooooleeey on the TV. When I watched Dallas play the Cards back at the begining of the year for the first 1/4 I thought it was at Dallas. Then I noticed that the field was covered in Cards stuff and it was at their stadium. Its tough to fill a large stadium no matter what team you are and I also think Skins fans picked other games to attend because Sunday night games can be tough if you have to work the following day. So the Steeler fans took advantage of that by buy up a bunch of tickets.
