Steelers fans among top 5 entrants in NFL tickets contest
Steeler Nation is well represented in the NFL’s “Tickets for 100 Years” promotion.
With one week left in a fan contest that will award someone two tickets for 100 years, the Steelers are one of five teams with the most entries submitted.
A contest spokesman said more than 3,000 entries have been received with the Steelers joining the Cleveland Browns, Dallas Cowboys, Philadelphia Eagles and Washington Redskins among the fan bases with the most submissions.
Entry deadline is Sunday.
Entries are based on Instagram or Twitter posts that describe how they are their “favorite team’s biggest fan of the century” and tag @NFL and #NFL100Contest in the picture, video or tweet.
Three finalists will be flown to Nashville, site of the NFL Draft. The winner will be announced during the first round on April 25.
