PITTSBURGH (AP) — The Steel City can make a strong case for a new nickname.
The Steelers have won more Super Bowls than any team in the NFL, and are one victory away from hoisting the Vince Lombardi Trophy a seventh time. The Penguins have reached the Stanley Cup Finals twice in the last three seasons. Pitt has developed into a Top 5 college basketball program.
They have beautiful new stadiums, state-of-the-art practice facilities, and a supportive fan base, too.
Perhaps the City of Champions is a more fitting moniker for this blue-collar, gritty town.
