Acrisure Stadium Receives Brutal Reviews From NFL Players

Visiting Pittsburgh’s Acrisure Stadium doesn’t seem to generate too much excitement from NFL players.

Playing the Steelers long has been a daunting task for visitors, as Pittsburgh fans always create a raucous environment for a team that typically plays a bruising brand of football. But even with the game itself out of the equation, the Steel City still can be a gameday location that visiting players resent.

The Athletic recently conducted its anonymous players poll, which included a “least favorite NFL road trip” prompt. Pittsburgh clocked in as the 10th-worst on the list, but the pair of comments included in the column indicated the ranking could have been even worse.

“I would say Pittsburgh, because it smells like p–s in their locker room,” one player told The Athletic.

Another player added: “Even though it’s my vibe: tough. It’s just always gray and s—ty weather there.”

Unfortunately for the Dallas Cowboys, they will have to deal with those conditions Sunday night when they visit the Steelers for a Week 5 showdown.
