For Chesney, it was his sixth time to play for a sold-out Heinz Field and in recognition of that feat, the Rooney family, owner's of the Pittsburgh Steelers, presented Chesney a cast iron Six For Six plaque, commemorating his six sold shows and the Steelers six Super Bowls Championships.

"I believe this might be the best gift I've ever gotten on the road," said Chesney. "It epitomizes all the heart and energy and passion that this crowd has, that this town has." With his Heinz Field run which began in 2005, Chesney has sold more than 300,000 tickets there.

I just don't understand whats so great listening to someone singing about his tractor and why he does have a woman in his life. Well you know, maybe you would have a woman in your life country singer if you didn't have ten teeth and the I.Q. of a mentally disabled child and no, that wasn't a shot at you SMR. :)

If BOA Stadium here in Charlotte could seat 250,000 for a Chesney concert, it would still sell out... lol. Seriously though...

I dont like 98% of country music either...

Not a huge fan of country music myself, don't hate and I'll listen to it every now and then. That plaque is pretty cool. Good stuff.
