I wanna see the Steelers play each week yet don't have a dish and the cash for the nfl ticket thing (to see all games) and here in the Indiana Illinois area we just get the colts or bears or something, how else can a Steelers fan catch a game or two when he lives in the sticks of Indiana (((((

Dear Hick in the Sticks,

Your best bet is to find a sportsbar that has the dish. If I can find one here in Alaska, I know you can find one in Indy.

Actually that is a good idea, I will have to hit a few local sports bars and see what they have planned for the weekend, if it weren't for the wife kids job and lack of $$$ I would head out to PA myself to see them live.

I had Sunday ticket for a couple years, but frankly, I found it wasn't as
much fun as going to the local sports bar to watch the game with fellow
Steeler fans. Here in the Phoenix area, there are dozens of venues to choose
from, and I've found several that have their fair share of black & gold fans
to hang out with. I've made some pretty good friends over the years too. I'd
recommend calling a few places during the week, to ask if they have many
Steeler fans show up - the reasons for wanting to go somewhere with a good
Steeler crowd is, the turnout generally determines which games are shown on
the best (biggest?) screens, which games have the sound turned on, etc.

GO STEELERS!

If it's the cash flow problem, tell your wife's kid to get a second job.
Sorry... it's been a long week, huh? wadda mean it's only Wednesday?!?

Seriously, like B&G and Mike said, your only option is to call around to
*all* the sports bars and see if they will be showing the game. The size of
the Steeler crowd is secondary, because watching it on a 20 inch TV is much
better than not watching it at all. If you get a big screen....bonus. Or
if you know someone who has the NFL Ticket (and several receivers) see if
they run a multiple game setup like I do. I have my own mini sportsbar
thing going on and the Steelers are always on the big screen. If he is a
good buddy, and doesn't have an extra receiver but has the NFLTicket, offer
to get him and pay monthly for the second receiver (usually only 5$ a
month). Time to get creative Bill, these are Steeler games we're talking
about. :-)

Good luck.
