Super Bowl Pep Rally Thursday

With the big flap over the parade in Green Bay (listened to Jerry Bader at WTAQ 1360 this morning) if the Packers win Sunday or should I say lack of parade. Seems Pittsburgh must of been to Super Bowls before.
A pep rally in Pittsburgh?

Super Bowl pep rally set for Thursday:

In preparation for the Super Bowl, Mayor Luke Ravenstahl will spend Thursday shredding a giant cheese head in a pep rally.

The 'Shred the Packers' rally, hosted by Mr. Ravenstahl and County Executive Dan Onorato, will take place Downtown at noon at Forbes Avenue and Ross Street, according to a news release from the city. It will include live music, free food and drinks and Steelers giveaways.

Fans have the opportunity to win prizes in three contests: best sign slogan, best player lookalike and best Steelers apparel. Contest participants should arrive at the stage by 11:45 a.m. Thursday, the release said.

Mr. Ravenstahl and Mr. Onorato have declared this week 'Steelers Victory Week,' encouraging fans to wear black and gold all week.

After the pep rally, fans can receive free pizza and participate in a competition between Green Bay and Pittsburgh to break the Guinness World Record for most simultaneous high fives. The high five contest will begin around 1 p.m. in Market Square."
So where are the Wisconsin or maybe Green Bay leaders on a pep rally for the Pack. Just because Green Bay is a small town, does anyone ever come up with a big idea once in a while?

Wow, free pizzas, contests, what are they doing in Titletown? Not much unless I missed something. Looks like Pittsburgh has one up on Green Bay. So people in Green Bay are bitching about a parade and Steel fans are having fun.
