When did you first become a Steeler fan?

[thor75]

Grew up outside of Cleveland but my mom was from Erie, PA. She was a Steeler fan and my dad was a Browns fan. They were divorced and I lived with my mom so I just grew up a Steeler fan and never thought twice about it. Prob. my mom's one way to get a barb back at dad, lol!! I think every holiday dinner picture has me wearing a tattered 32, 58, or 12. Now I've gotten my dad to follow the black n gold.

I remember going to see Terry Bradshaw for my 16th birthday in Akron while he was doing a speaking tour. This was before he got into broadcasting. It was hilarious, he talked a lot about what went on in the huddle and other behind the scene stuff. That was a good time.

Is it like this in Spain? (Never Been to Spain) ...

Women can't go topless in the US. It would be considered obscene based on our customs. However men can go topless and half of Americans are overweight. And the point is many men have boobs as big if not bigger than many women. Yet it's not obscene for them to go topless.

So Dukie's saying if I have to look at fat man boobs at the beach, why not let me see some girl boobs too?

We're so weird in the US, people will get up in arms over a woman breast feeding in public. People in the US are too uptight. We were a country founded on religious freedom and the separation of church and state, but we love to shove our religion down everyone's throat. We're a weird country in that sense.

Just thought the picture added some humor to a trend this thread has taken. The ample people in the cartoon seem suspiciously American to me.

"Never Been to Spain" is a great song, by the way. I'd love to visit your beautiful country one day.

Well stated, Flip.

The plus-size neighbor guy where I grew up used to mow his lawn topless. It was a seriously traumatic experience to see that. His daughters looked great sunning in their 2-pieces. I used to hope for some role reversal among him and his daughters. It never happened. Now I'm older than he was back then. I wear a full set of clothes when I mow.

He wouldn't have looked much better in one of those 2-pieces, though.

You are an asset to the Planet, Steeler bro. You do well in English. Wish I knew Spanish.
