Everyone knows that Steeler fans are all around the Country. They have more Steeler bars in Jacksonville, Florida than the Jaguars do. There are stories of people from Mexico crossing the border (not illegally) just to watch the Steelers. But who would have guessed that even the remotest corners of the world would have a Steeler bar? That's right. There is even a Steeler bar in Sochi, Russia. From KDKA.com: Jared Wickerham, staff photographer for Getty Images and graduate of the Art Institute of Pittsburgh, is currently in Sochi covering the Olympics and did some digging. Wickerham talked to the bartender and he told him through and interpreter, “the owner was just in Pittsburgh he kind of just liked the city and liked the idea of it and decided to turn it into a bar.” What makes it Pittsburgh themed? Wickerham says, “You see [miniature statues of] Fifth Avenue Place and PPG on the outside and the West End Bridge.” Once you get into the bar he says there are pictures of different parts of the sky line hanging up around the bar. “That’s the extent of it,” says Wickerham. They don’t serve Iron City or Primanti’s sandwiches.
