We have a group of 5 Ravens fans going up on Saturday for the game this weekend and was wondering how many other Ravens fans are going? Would be cool to meet up with more Ravens fans Sunday prior to the game...anyone else going?
BTW...if you are going WEAR YOUR RAVEN COLORS!!! There is nothing that should stop you from doing that. Pitt is not Philly...or Cleveland!

Agreed. I know Ravens and Steeler fans each have horror stories of wearing their colors inside the enemy's stadium, but from everything I've seen and heard, the vast majority of both crowds are tolerable of opposing fans (provided you're not acting like a dick). I've been to games at Heinz with Ravens fans, and to M&T, and never had trouble at either stadium.

Hope you guys have a good time, and enjoy the game (well, not too much :p)

We go every year for this game and make a weekend out of it...sort of a guys weekend with a Ravens-Steelers thrown in there! And downtown Pittsburgh actually is a fun town to visit for the weekend. Always have a great time. Recommend this trip to all Ravens fans and is a trip they should make at least once...hopefully more!

Went to the 2008 AFCCG. Aside from some catcalls walking into the stadium, the Steeler fans you actually had to deal with - in line to get into the stadium and sitting next to you in the stands - were actually very cool.

There is a lot of mutual respect between the fan bases.

Wear the colors proudly...

I will be there in my Ravens gear! Does not seem like a lot of people are going! I was hoping to stop by a tailgate party!

I'll be leaving for Pittsburgh tomorrow morning. I've never had any trouble up there. Of course there's always a few fans that go way overboard and try to start something. But you just need to ignore them and keep walking.

Ugh. I was at that game. What a dissapointing loss to what was a great season with a rookie QB and coach. I don't think I've ever been more upset over a loss. I didn't even watch the Superbowl that year.

I just recently moved to SW PA, but still DIE HARD RAVENS BABY! I will be at the game with my gf (who is a steelers fan) and I will be wearing #5 and swinging my purple towel all game.

There is no doubt that if you are within 10 sections of me you would hear me screaming while steelers are on offense.

We are going in through GATE A and sitting in section 505 on the visitors sideline almost directly beside the scoreboard.
