From Monterrey, Mexico to the Steel City to catch a game!

The Regios De Acero Steelers Fan Club traveled by bus from Mexico to Pittsburgh to see their beloved Steelers LIVE!

Regular readers are familiar with this hardy crew of Steelers fans who wear their love for their favorite team (and their favorite player) on their backs as part of their everyday attire!

Sure, they watch their Steelers at home in Mexico, and theyâ€™ve traveled to Kansas, Arizona, and to Dallas for Super Bowl XLV to see them play (they didnâ€™t have tickets, but they did tailgate and watch the game on TV), but their dream was to see a Steelers game in THEIR home!

They finally made their own dream come true on December 15th!

From Roger Saucedo on their unforgettable trip:

The trip to Pittsburgh started on Thursday, December 12th at 7:00 am. A group of around 25 Steelers fans leave Monterrey to Pittsburgh. We pass the border by McAllen,Texas. The plan was go non-stop to Pittsburgh, just stop to buy food and gas for the bus.

We finally arrived in Pittsburgh on Friday, December 13th by 11:00pm which means we completed the trip from Monterrey to the Steel City in around 40 hours. Obviously all were tired but happy because we will be at the game at Heinz Fieldâ€¦and we arrived while it was snowing....
