"Biggest Steeler Fan" Picked


VisitPittsburgh has announced the winner of its biggest Steelers fan contest. The top prize winner is Tina Kunst of Panama City Beach, Florida who wrote about her "Steeler-themed" wedding last May. Kunst wore a full Steeler yellow wedding gown and of course a Steeler garter. Her husband wore a tuxedo with a Steeler tie and the bridesmaids wore black with Steeler yellow jewelry. A giant Steeler helmet was used as the altar. The reception was held in a sports bar with 60 inch widescreen televisions showing a replay of Super Bowl XL (in which the Steelers defeated Seattle). Tina Kunst receives 2 tickets to a future Steeler game, a Steelers jersey and a Super Bowl XL game football. A VisitPittsburgh spokeswoman says they received more than 300 photo submissions and stories from across the U.S. including from Virginia, Florida, New York, Texas, Maryland and California.
