Steelers/Vikings game

Yesterday we went to the Steelers/Vikings game in Pittsburg. It was AWESOME!!! The only down part was that the Vikings lost. It was quite fun going in a mixed group of fans. Amy and I are Vikings while Rob, Ryan, and Ed are Steelers. Getting dressed in the morning proved to be interesting since neither group wanted to share the bathroom with the "enemy". Danny, a Raiders die hard, tried to stay neutral throughout (although I think he secretly cheered for the Steelers). Our seats where way up the stadium Section 512, Row Z, seats 9-14. They were quite high, but the view was still amazing. We were between the 25-30 yd line on the visiting team side. It was a good view for the whole game. Right when the Vikings had the Steelers heading for their third loss, Favre threw an interception (albeit not his fault) on the 19yd line and the Steelers ran it all the way back for a TD. There was only 1 minute left in the game. The score shows 27-17 in favor of the Steelers, but it wasn't until the last minute when the Steelers fans thought they won. I am glad we came all this way and it was a close game. All-in-all the experience was worth it. We even saw a celebrity...Bumblebee from Transformers!!! Yeah, yeah, it probably wasn't him, but it was still cool anyway.
