I do not even want to hear that the steelers went winless in the preseason, because the Red Birds in Arizona always do good in the preseason and fail in the regular season. Enough said about preseason games of any type.
NG you comming to Az for a game? I am going this Sunday to check out the field, I will let you know what it is like
GO STEELERS

Parking is a little tough. People are still "wandering" looking for the correct lot (tickets are color coded to your lot...if it's season tickets). Refreshments, etc., are really expensive. And, plenty of restrooms. Did not have any problem with leaving.....hit the "ditch" in about 20 minutes, seats to car to 101.

NG and TXman....
I can give you some numbers on the stadium, if you are interested. For example,
....the grass field you mentioned weights almost 19 million pounds, takes about an hour to move in OR out and is ouside 350+ days a year (for watering and sun). The stadium can be used for Monster Trucks without damage to the turf...neat huh... Oh, it cost almost 500 million dollars, not counting the surrounding area, which is developed for retail sales, resturants, offices, motels, etc.
If you come to a game and rent a car, stay at a motel, etc. you are paying for the stadium with special "taxes" attached. Sales tax we all pay........thank you.

That was a good game squealer fans! Miami had it but then that TD to the TE was killer! Then C Pep decides to throw it to the wrong team back to back 
So there you have it, a good game to open the season, even though I was wrong, but the true test will be on 10/8/06
