I noticed the Heinz Field endzones say Pittsburgh and Steelers

[HailtoPitt]

When did the Steelers stop using the ND endzone and just "Pittsburgh" at the other end? Do you think they would allow Pitt and Panthers in the endzones? Probably not.

Just put Pittsburgh in both end zones. Not complicated.

With the WPIAL finals this weekend, I wouldn't be surprised if they are changing the turf after Saturday. Thus, they can do what they want to the field.

If the Steelers can paint and endzones for themselves, why can't Pitt?

Who says they can’t?

They used to...no idea why they do It this way.


Steelers tonight
Same turf for wpial
Replace turf
ND lines for Pitt and Miami with new turf but at least it won't be the white circle Pitt
Then back to Steelers in end zone for final 4 Steeler games

Cause Rooney calls shots at Heinz. They don't own it, they do control it.

Pittsburgh in both endzones as the other poster said makes more sense. I hate our step child field designs. Pro stadium and can't afford a crew to demand a little bit of paint work in a few hours. It's not that hard. Just lazy and cheap.

At least we didn't get the Christmas ball at midfield last game, just Pitt Script. Looked decent, not as lazy.

That's exactly what the deal is.On a side note, from now on there will be NO EXCUSE not to have a Pitt logo at the middle of the field without the white Steeler logo circle.I noticed someone FINALLY figured out they could paint the logo circle GREEN for the UNC game.Looked good.

It's not even painting the white circle green is the issue, if they say did it I didn't notice, it's the fact being lazy. I cringe everytime walking out of the concourse to my seat first thing I look at is midfield and when I see that Xmas bulb i want to puke. I understand not placing the acc logo on field and having the acc tarps on the sidelines fine. But no reason not to have Pittsburgh in both endzones and no Xmas bulb and with the amount of noon games we been having no excuse of not having time to repaint the field. If understand if it was years ago we had 2 to 3 night games a year and steelers played at 1 the next but for a noon kick they can start at 430 5 at the latest and have the field done by 8 or 9 fully I'd think. Esp the endzones all they do now is darken the blue to black and keep the bright yellow lettering

I think it might be an NFL rule that the team name has to go in one

It only took them how many years? Why didn't the dolts at Pitt push for that sooner. Unbelievable.

Is it a new rule?
