Took a 5 hour ride to Pittsburgh and I have to say it was so worth it. The seat I paid for was outrageously priced and I would've paid more. Sat right behind the Cowboys bench. The Pittsburgh fans are so much classier than my local Eagles fans it's not even funny. 0 fear of wearing my Cowboys gear walking around alone. The majority of my section was Cowboys fans, I would say 80%! We really travel well. What a great game this was, what a great season it's been, and what a great ride we have ahead of us. My highlight of the night besides the win Dez heard me call his name and he turned around, I threw the X up and he nodded his head at me twice. Took a terrible towel as a souvenir and I'm off to home. GO COWBOYS!!

That's awesome, that would be a good experience to have. One of the greatest comebacks in team history and one of the best games this season and you witnessed it in person. I'm jealous.

It sounded like there were quite a few Cowboys fans in attendance. Can you confirm whether or not the stadium was flooded with Boys fans or just your section in particular?

Oh there was tons of Cowboys fans. I'll say my section was 80% and the stadium as a whole was prob 35% Cowboys fans. That's a lot especially in such a loyal fan bases stadium. I sat next to people who traveled from Mexico!

I'm envious. Awesome :thumbup:

Literally every game I've been to in any sport has been a snoozer. I don't know if I would have been able to handle this one in the stands. Did a lot of in-game pacing today. Probably walked several miles haha.

I've lucked out and been to 4 OT games of the 7 I've seen (2011 vs Niners we won at Candlestick, the 2012 home game vs Steelers we won, the 2015 loss at the Superdome vs Saints and a couple weeks back at home vs Eagles), and the feeling can't be explained....celebrating and high fiving random strangers from all over the world is so awesome. Today must have been just as special

I was at the game as well. A Steelers fan told me that they hadn't ever seen that many opponent fans their before, maybe that is why it was a record attendance for Heinz field.

I had an unbelievable time. This was my first game and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. There was never a dull moment it of the entire game. Also I'll add the steeler fans were all polite and great to party and hang out with.

I'm with the OP, one if the best moments of our night was because of interacting with the players. During warm ups Witten was walking towards our section on the field and myself and 3 other that I was with started yelling at him and I was grabbing and pointing to my jersey (of course it was 82 material). He looked right at us and patted his chest and gave is a head nod. Great to see players want to interact with the fans. Had a Hell of a time. GO COWBOYS

Im confused about how it was a record attendance. Heinz field has certainly sold out before, right? Like every game probably?

I was surprised when they announced that at the game. Especially since there were a few empty seats around us (way up in the nose bleeds). Maybe they recently expanded the stadium (too tired to look it up).
