I grew up in Steelers' Country or in other words, Pittsburgh! One for the thumb, immaculate reception, Terrible Towel, Myron Cope, bleeding black and gold, Cower Power, the Rooneys. If you aren't familiar with football and/or a Steelers' fan, it's probably that none of the above will make sense to you. That's fine! Here's the deal: the Steelers clinched the division, which means they're going to the Playoffs in January! I am a diehard fan who has kicked, screamed, punched and cried over games. See where I'm going? I want tickets. But first, I need money for said tickets. How do I fundraise? I'm down for anything...creative, outlandish, unimaginable, not of this earth! Hit me up.

Enter a Raffle!

My dad sent me some info about a raffle for playoff tickets, so I will be dropping the $10 on that, but do you know how many others will probably be doing so? Have you seen the stands at a home game for Pittsburgh? How about an away game? Guess what, they look pretty much the same, which is to say, there’s black and gold everywhere. We take this seriously! I’m not sure I have a good chance of winning the raffle…unless I enter a hundred times?

Find a Steeler!

I’m going home for the holidays next week, and Pittsburgh being the small city it is, a little bar-hopping could result in bumping into a Steeler, or someone who works for the Steelers. Perhaps I could charm my way into some comp tickets that way. I wouldn’t even have to pay! I will admit I have a HUGE crush on 70-something year old Defense Coordinator Dick LeBeau…

Play Bingo!

Back in my day, bingo winnings never topped $40 or so and that was when the ole’ Catholic school gymnasium was a-hoppin.’ A friend of mine told me about something very magical happening not so far away, however: high stakes bingo at Foxwoods Casino. A $40 buy-in (sometimes less), over a thousand bucks to win each game! Whoa! Count. Me. In.

No way the Steelers are going, at least I hope not.
