Steelers fan in full uniform sneaks onto field with team
For a brief moment, a fan lived out his dream of suiting up and practicing with the Pittsburgh Steelers.
A man, dressed in full uniform, sneaked onto the turf practice field at Saint Vincent and joined the players for a few moments during the team stretch before practice Saturday afternoon.
Other than that, the man looked the part, and he apparently arrived on campus seeking a tryout with his favorite football team. His scheme was quickly snuffed out, and he was escorted off the turf practice field by conditioning coordinator Garret Giemont.
Steelers players seemed amused by the man’s diligence, and Antonio Brown laughed and talked briefly with the intruder.
When asked about the intruder at his post-practice press gathering, coach Mike Tomlin said “I’ll pass” and walked away.
