    For those who went to the game, I had a couple of questions. If you don't mind, could you answer? Thanks.

    1) Were there a lot of Pats fans there?
    -How many, what percent would you say?

    2) Was this the normal amount of fans the Pats bring?
    -If not, what is, was this more or less?

    3) How did the turnout of Pats fans compare to other teams?
    -Compared to when Buffalo, Jets, Miami, Browns, Ravens, Bengals, Colts, 49ers, Giants, Iggles, Broncos, Cowboys....where do the Pats rank?

    4) How did the turnout of Pats fans in PIT compare to when PIT is at the Pats?

    5) In general, are there usually many opposing fans at Stiller games? Is it more or less than at Pens or Bucco games?

    On TV...it looked and sounded like there was a decent amount. You could hear some cheering and see Pats fans.

    You've asked these exact same questions before, as I recall - 3 games at the end of 2016.

    Then let's skew the results.
    I'd say the stadium was about 98% Pats fans. :thumbs_up:

    I was there. The place was completely empty except for 10 or 11 fans. It was like the moon landing. Everything you saw on TV was staged.

    Say Rover, my Brother's neighbor's gardener's uncle works for Homeland Security - here's the inside scoop (I'm now whispering) - for national security reasons :cool: they can't let anyone into stadiums any longer - what you see on TV are inflatable bots :zombie:dressed to look like fans (humanoid fans :clap: must remain in the parking lots and tailgate :guiness:during the games)- because Steeler bots travel so well all over the Country - they never have enough to fill Heinz Field on game days - hence the presence of opponent fill-in bots :smashbengals:to make the stadium look full for advertising/marketing purposes.

    Thus the results of your survey will be quite academic :hmm: and not scientific nor statistically accurate :shrug:. Hope your Jr Hi teacher doesn't mark you down for this revelation. Please do not hesitate to make further inquiries :huh: pertaining to this fascinating topic. We aim to please around these parts. :smiley1:

    Was there, still getting my voice back

    1) Guess 5% Ones that were there sure were vocal and most in the first level
    2) don't know
    3) Cowboys have a lot show up as well
    4) don't know
    5) As a %, i would say less opponent fans at Steeler games

    With NFL Ticket Exchange and that allows folks to sell pats/cowboy/GB tickets for 500+ each, I'm not surprised if there are more opponents fans than in years past. Now you can buy your ticket online and know its real. Vs showing up and trying to scalp one at the stadium.

    My 2 cents

    If you were watching closely, you’ll see James scores the first time, then the “replay” was them doing it again more slowly with him dropping it that time. He’d just misread the script.


    (Too soon?)

    The quickest way to out them ( the older ones at least) is to ask, "Who was your favorite player before 2001 not named Bledsoe or Grogan?" You'll get a lot of blank stares.
