So I go get my son a haircut and I notice the lady cutting his hair is a huge Steeler fan. Bracelets. necklace, purse, the whole nine yards. I live in Florida by the way. She says she is from Pittsburgh and known as "Pittsburgh Donna". I tell her that I am looking for tix for the Browns finale in Pitt. She calls Bill Hillgrove (voice of Steelers) and gets me 2 front row tix that will be in my name and Mr Hillgroves. They will be waiting in will call the day of the game. Tix will be super cheap and I only met her once. So I guess thanx are in order to Pitt Donna and Mr Hillgrove but wondering your all thoughts...she has nothing to gain as I will pay at will call for the face value of the ticket. (instead of ebay, saving some $) Anyone else gotten tix through Mr Hillgrove. I feel I just got treated like family all the way down here in Florida. Her Grandad or Uncle played LB for the Steelers in the 50's and 60's. A little nervous going to the game without tix until I get to will call...I m going a long way. But she promised on the grave of Art Rooney that the tix will be there. Plus my son gets free haircuts the rest of his life if tix not there.

Well...I would be less skeptical since she works somewhere you can go back and stab her with scissors.

Have you googled "Pittsburgh Donna"???

Good story
Even if you dont get the tix, you'll be able to scalp no problem.

That is freaky...how did you find her? I googled the name and came up with notta. Pretty cool stuff! That is her. She is a true Burgher!

Just Googled "Pittsburgh Donna" and it popped right up in the first couple of results.

Bring her back some Iron City and Primanti's as a thank you.

Excellent idea! Although the Primanti's might not make it all the way back home.

You should have told her about this site!


We need some new blood in the MNFE next year.

Bring her back Heinz spicy brown mustard too.. can't find that outside the burgh very much.

I told her bout site--She doesn't own a computer. Spicy mustard sounds good, I will do that!

All she asks is that I bring her back a program and get a card to Mr Hillgrove with a thanks.

They've been making special Terrible Towels for the holiday seasons this year. Last game, they debuted a Thanksgiving Towel with turkeys on it. A few weeks prior, they had a Halloween Towel with Jack O'Lanterns. For your game, they should have the Christmas Towels, I would imagine. In addition to the program, maybe get her a seasonal towel that she wouldn't have access to down in Florida (since she seems to be all about the Steeler merchandise), if the Primanti's won't make the trip.

Christmas Terrible Towel and a Program sounds perfect! Thanks....Great win today Steelers!

They have three Primanti's in Florida, so maybe it is not out of the question.
