What are you going to do during the Super Bowl.

[LLT]

I think there are 4 kinds of Steelers fans.

1) Casual- I love my team but its still just a game. I plan on watching the game at someones house where I will enjoy my friends first and the game second.

2) Social- I love my team and plan on going to someones house, be with friends, twirl my Terrible Towel and yell until throat hurts

3) Social Harcore- The game has GOT to be at MY house. Steelers fans and selected non-Steelers fans only. No casual fans allowed. Prepare for yelling and chest bumps.

4) Strict Hardcore- OH HELL NO!!! The game will be at my house but if you dont get mail delivered there...you are not invited. I dont want to expain the game to anyone...dont want to listen to a self proclaimed football expert (though they rarely are)...and frankly, if we should lose....YOU dont want to be around me anyway.

Which one are you and what are your plans?

[CPanther95]

#3.

.. and I'll wear the same shorts and Polamalu jersey I had on vs. the Ravens and Jets - and twirl the same XLIII TT.

[venom]

Regular season and the post season, I'm # 3 Social Harcore .

If the Steelers are NOT in the SuperBowl , my friends and I pick a free house to have the SuperBowl party at . We order the food , drinks and the pregame/half -time " adult entertainment " to come and put on a great show for the guys.

[LLT]

I am so bad.

I am #4....all year long. It takes all night for me to get over a loss. I had to give my wife and daughter "the look" last night for talking about homework while I was trying to watch/listen to the game.

[tube517]

Steeler fans and family.

I will also pick my nose and put a booger on my brother's jacket.

[Steeldude]

i will watch the game alone as i always do.

[SteelerEmpire]

I have the option of going to Dallas and hanging out the entire weekend as I have both friends and family there. OR. A friend of mine is throwing a SB party in his 7 BR house with flat screens in every room, several exotic dancers and local models will be there dressed down or in birthday suits, all kinds of food from mexican, italian, seafood, etc... beer and alcohol. And since my brother has a Steelers bar, a good portion of them will be there also... gonna look like a section at Heinz Field...
Think I'll go to Dallas the fri. or sat. before the game to sport my Steeler's Jersey around and mix it up with other Steeler and Cheezzzz head fans and try to find the hotel where the Steelers are at so I can get autographs... then catch my friends party back here...

Stay in Dallas for the SB, you 'll want to soak up the atmosphere.

... then pm me your friend's address. :)

OH!!!! Its a bring your own finger-food party.

Gotcha.

[steelersfan425]

northwest steeler nation is were ill be

[tube517]

Well, he is an Eagles fan.


OH!!!! Its a bring your own finger-food party.

Gotcha.

[steeldevil]

Only me and my gf will be here, maybe my brother and dad. But thats it! If it were a nonsteelers superbowl we would have a party, but not if we are in it.

[NJarhead]

Damn! I mis-voted. I meant Social Hardcore. It's my turn to host. Black and Gold fans ONLY and everyone WILL be wearing the colors (I have extra Jerseys for the less fortunate - lol).

Need to produce a killer menu though as my buddy provided a straight up feast for the AFCCG.

I got your back WarDen...Mrs. LLT has some GREAT recipes!!!! I will send you a pm as soon as I talk to her.

[steelerdude15]

I'm going to be out and about spreading that Pittsburgh magic! :tt02:

[NJarhead]

Well thank you Brother!

I'm definitely doing wings and I may get clams and *gulp* lobster for lobster salad (no I do not do this normally but thankfully the local fish market is reasonably priced. Just not sure what else to do.

To be honest, I have no idea how we came to this. When we were both single it was chips, beer and wings. WTF happened??? lol

[Count Steeler]

I'm leaning towards 3. Have not made up my mind on any invites. I'll see how this week goes.

[Delraich]

Home with my wife and kids whom I have forced to watch every Steeler game this season. Wife likes the cryboys because that was her grandpas team,(we actually met during Super Bowl 30 at a mutual friends house) my oldest is a Packers fan for as long as she's watched football but my youngest and only boy is a Steelers fan so it should be an interesting and dangerous night to say the least.

[GoSlash27]

Social.
My best friend insisted on hosting this one and we're "yinzering" it out. I'll be providing the pierogies, another friend is bringing Primanti Bros. sandwiches, another is bringing a case of Iron City, etc.

It's gonna be epic :D

[fansince'76]

#4 for me. Not answering the phone, not talking to anybody until the game's over either. If the Steelers weren't playing in it, it would be #2.

[The Duke]

Strict Hardcore definitely

Would've probably watched it with my best friend (packers fan) but he's away doing his mission, so it's going to be a complete hardcore for me. Anyone comes at the door runs the risk of severe damage

[BPS3akaWirels3]

Home alone,,,

[steelreserve]

I'm leaning toward masturbate.

[vader29]

I'm leaning toward masturbate.
I'll get that out of the way before gametime. :heh:

I'll be doing #4.

[JayC]

I am making sure we don't have any friends/guest or i'm locking myself in a room for the game. Last thing i need is some people ruining the game for me, asking stupid questions about football because this is the first game they watched since we beat the cardinals, and not letting me be my normal nervous wreck self screaming and worrying all the time out loud. #4 all the way

[Moose]

I voted # 4. I want to be alone with plenty alcohol. My wife has to stay out of the room ( she asks too many questions and seems to bring bad luck- a fumble or interception when we have ball, a TD when 'they' have the ball ). My daughter can be sitting on the other couch when she's home ( she's away at college in Pittsburgh we've watched football together since she was born), if she isn't home then she sits on her couch in her apartment and we txt back and forth. I want NO other people in the house, I'm not entertaining anyone during game time. And definitely NO phone calls taken. If we lose, then misery starts immediately ! If we win then I want to go out and socialize.

[salamander]

Home alone,,,

I'll drive down and watch the game with you, I'll be off the Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday after the Super Bowl. :chuckle:

[TXSteelerFan]

Well, I seleceted four... But im more probably along the lines of 3... Unless of course I might be going to the Super Bowl. I qualified with a radio station from where I live to be 1 of 13 people to put a football into a box/bag (something im not really sure of yet) with my name on it. Each person will pull a ball out of the bag and if your name is on it you are out. The last person with their ball in the bag/box wins tickets to the Super bowl. Wish me luck and of course Goooo Steelers!!

[XxKnightxX]

Im gonna be in Dallas and in New Mexico next week so Im sure as hell bringing my jersey and showing it off around Jerrah's world. But I come back to NJ Friday. Now heres my 1 in a million possibility that I may not even catch the plane back to NJ from Dallas airport since I know and hung around Sean Lissemore from the Cowboys (Defensive End 95) , and hes working to get me and his good buddy tickets to the big dance. If that happens Im gonna be in a jar in the game since im going to melt if I get a ticket to the Big dance.

[Devilsdancefloor]

Social hardcore sad to say!! My wife will be sure to invite all her cowboy friends and everyone that will be for the pack ugh!! but that is ok i suppose my boys and i will be twirling the TT and making it hard for the others :) it brings a tear to my eye when they state facts about the steelers and football. HERE WE GO STEELERS HERE WE GO!!!!!

[SteelerSal]

Home alone,,,

Same with me, well actually watching it alone...only person who is aloud to bother me is my grandaughter...been that way all season.

[Aussie_steeler]

Unfortunately it will be Monday here and the game will be broadcast at approximately 10.00am. That means being at work, using the DVR to copy it. I will know the result before I watch it. The result will determine how I watch it when I get home.

I wont be able to log onto SU until after 6pm so I will have missed most of the dialouge and will only get the chance to talk with the night owls and drunks still celebrating or drowning their sorrows.

Over the last 18 years of watching the NFL I have only ever had the opportunity to watch the Superbowl live twice.

I guess I would have to vote #5 Strictly Absent

[Mamaduck43]

Home alone.... My grandkids might come over for a while, but they have been warned... I will have a full menu of food and snacks, but I already know that I won't be able to force anything down except for the requisite bite of kielbasa and kraut.... By the time kickoff happens, I should be a total basket case..... On top of everything else, there will be no 'potty' opportunities... Usually, the commercials are the big attraction and breaks can happen during the football part of the programming, but when the Steelers are on the field, there is no time to go potty..... What a dilemma
but I will figure that out.... It isn't going to help that all of my neighbors will be screaming at the wrong times during the game.... Sigh.....

[Bluecoat96]

#4 all the way. I have to sit on the right side of the couch, in front of the TV, while my wife and baby daughter are in the recliner to my right. If anything is different, I'm all out of sorts. God, I'm a loser.:crazy: I can't bring myself to watch the game anywhere else, unless I HAVE to. Thank goodness the last game I watched away from home was the Panthers game this year. The last one before that was the Jacksonville playoff game in 2007/2008, and we all know how that turned out.:mad2:

[NJarhead]

That sounds superstitious. Which is the reason why, win or lose, I can't wait to wash my utterly NASTY Terrible Towel. I only wash it after our last game each year. So it's got beer, sauce, and a host of other consumables on it. I also brought it to Giants Stadium this year so it's probably got Giant Fan cooties on it too. lol

[Kaeg]

I am the only Steeler fan within my circle of immediate friends. Some have been asking since the AFCCG was over if I'm having a party. I'm not really sure. May just be with my family. It's hard to act like my emotional basket case self when there are others around. Plus if we lost I really wouldn't want ANYONE there as I would be quite miserable/pissed/some combination like that. I was only with family for SB40 and I screamed all I wanted. Had guests over for SB43 and I was maybe a little more subdued. Especially since none of them were Steeler fans anyway.

[HometownGal]

I'm definitely a #4. I was going to host a Super Bowl party at my house but after further consideration, I'd much prefer to watch my Steelers in the big game by myself and interact with everyone here during the game as has become habit-forming for me. :drink: :tt02:

Can't really say that I'd be pissed if we lose - disappointed, yes but surely not pissed. I don't think there are many of us who thought at the start of the season that we'd be in XLV!

I know exactly what you mean. Plus, if we were to lose, at least its to the Packers. Who outside of the NFC north (and Dallas) actually hates the Packers? lol

Still, I'm getting pretty confident. We have the experience, we won the shootout last time WITHOUT Troy and we know what they will try to do. I say we just concede the run to them and defend the pass.

[86WARD]

Same underwear and T-shirts since the Week 11 match up against the Raiders...UNWASHED OF COURSE...lol...

No lies...it's funk!

[LLT]

1 tsp. chopped jalapeno pepper (optional)

Directions

[SteelerFanInStl]

Definitely Strict Hardcore for me. I don't want other people in my house yapping when I'm trying to watch the game.

[memphissteelergirl]

Well, I mistakenly voted "Strict Hardcore" when I am actually more "Social Hardcore". As always, I will be watching the game with my fellow Steeler fans at our usual meeting place. I will probably have to camp out at the parking lot the night before to be sure I get in and get a seat (j/k...but perhaps not too far from the truth). LOL!
