    Seems other NFL teams agree with you.

    " But if the Jaguars always welcome a visit from the Steelers, other teams began trying to prevent Steelers fans from gobbling up tickets in their stadiums.
    Last season, the Chargers and the Bengals forced fans buying tickets to the game against the Steelers to buy tickets to other games as well, and the Colts and Broncos made attempts to keep tickets out of the hands of Steelers fans by refusing to sell them to people in the 412 area code. None of it really worked, and Rooney expects the Steelers fans to turn out in force in 2006 as well.
    "I have no reason to think we wouldn't have as many, if not more, fans at our road games," said Rooney. "Coming off a Super Bowl season, there will be a lot of enthusiasm and they will be out there trying to gather up as many tickets as they can. We are excited about that."
    But the Steelers weren't excited about the tactics being used by some teams to restrict them, and so Rooney tried to take action during the league meetings in March.
    "We tried to get a resolution considered at the league meetings to curtail some of that, but we were not able to get it on the agenda, so I guess we will have to go through another year where Steelers fans will have to scramble to try to find tickets," said Rooney. "But they have been doing a great job figuring out the system so far. I suppose they will continue to do that.
    "We submitted a resolution where we asked the league to consider not allowing teams to engage in some of the practices they were engaging in as we understood it last year where they wouldn't sell to people calling from the 412 area code and trying to discern who the buyers were and discriminate against Steelers fans, as far as we were concerned," said Rooney. "Obviously, they can market to their own fans and put the effort out to get their own people in the building, but we just felt like once they put the tickets on sale to the general public, they shouldn't be discriminating against Steelers fans.""

    Not jealous, but if I were gonna give someone a ticket to that game, it would go to a Panther fan first. I would give you a ticket to any other game, in which I felt you'd cheer for the Panthers, but not for one in which I felt you'd cheer against them.

    I love my brother even though he is a Steeler fan and yes I will be sure we all three go to that game so when we have to drive 4hrs home Ime and Couz can rub that sweet W in his face.

    Other than the Cowboy fans the Steelers and Packer fans travel the best in BoA stadium. With that in mind, call Ticketmaster.
