Who Is The Steelers Biggest Fan?





Hank Williams, Jr. wows them at Heinz Field
Hank Williams, Jr. treated fans at Heinz Field to an intimate concert held in the Coca-Cola Great Hall on Tuesday.Williams just released a new collection CD entitled "That's How They Do it In Dixie – The Essential Hank Jr." The CD is a collection of his hits mixed with a few new songs. He is promoting the CD by flying to six cities in two days and performing small, invitation only shows for around 50 people on airport tarmacs in the selected cities.

He wanted to do something different in Pittsburgh, though. The diehard Steelers fan selected Heinz Field as the site of the concert to make it more fun and to open it up to more fans, as over 300 were able to attend after winning passes through Froggy Radio Stations.

Williams performed for about an hour, did a question and answer session, and then went through the crowd, shaking hands and posing for pictures.

Williams proudly sported a Steelers jersey during his set, something that is not uncommon as he often wears Steelers apparel and attends games whenever he can – including Super Bowl XL.
