Steeler by Marriage...

So I married a girl from Pittsburgh and she's a diehard Steeler's fan. Which means I am now a Steeler's fan as I get drug out to the local Steeler bar near our house outside Atlanta for all the games, and in a room full of black and gold, I've had to adopt the wardrobe appropriately to not stick out horribly.

Anyway, said new wife has never actually been to a Steeler's home game. I'm planning a trip up for likely the Week 2 game vs. Seattle this season for her. We visited Pittsburgh last summer, visited family she still has there, etc., and I actually really enjoyed it. Very cool town! So my plan is book plane tickets on a late Friday night, uber to hotel somewhere downtown, spend Saturday downtown, see more of the Strip District, see the game Sunday, fly back late Sunday night, and have a s$!$$y morning at work on Monday.

All that said, I'm usually more a college football guy and everytime I've gone to a game in the last 10 years for my university, I just go and find a scalper. Price is usually much better, and even have gotten some decent seats that way. So I'd like to ask a question - are scalpers easy to find? Tickets expensive to scalp, or better to get online, like on Stubhub or something?

 

You married a smart woman

sometimes members on here have tickets, but I've never used stubhub etc.
