Most people go to Gerold's Old Dutch Tavern for a beer or on a night like tonight, Thursday, a hamburger with some random topping like guacamole or applesauce. I go there for two reasons, eagles and volleyball. And the occasional liquid refreshment.

Pittsburgh Steelers and Cleveland Browns fans are cut from the same cloth. That team out east just happens to be in the Super Bowl this year. And won the Super Bowl three years ago.
