Pittsburgh Steelers

There's tailgating in the far lot past the soccer stadium. Come extra early and you can also take the Duquesne Incline to Mount Washington for incredible views of the city before the game.

The T (light rail) is free on game days and stops right at the stadium. Stay at a hotel in downtown and take an easy walk or train ride to Acrisure. Hit Primanti Bros and Hofbrauhaus while you are there.

Southern Tier and Shorty's on the North Shore are both great bars to pregame - they're right by the stadium. For dinner the night before, try Tako downtown or Fig & Ash on the North Side.

Go in when gates open and go straight to the seats near the Steelers tunnel in Section 144 first row. You can watch warmups up close. The Strip District has great cheap eats like Lucy's Banh Mi.

Last row in Section 1 is awesome - better if closer to the 50. If you want to stand you are not blocking anyone. Need the restroom or concessions? Just step over the back of your seat.

You can pay cash for most parking spots near the stadium with no issue. Just drive past the soccer stadium to the far lot - season ticket holders have been doing it for years.

Nothing on the stadium's directions page covers the T, buses or the ferry, so plan a car-free trip from the transit operator's map instead.

The club ring is the UPMC Club; a '200-level' listing without that name is an ordinary seat.

The tailgating rules here are Alco Parking's, not the stadium's. Alco is on (412) 323-4455 if a specific question matters to your plans.

The stadium is an open horseshoe on the riverfront, so the upper deck gets the skyline view and the weather in equal measure.
