Why is that year after year Steelers fans continue to call their team colors black and gold, when clearly it is yellow? One would think that a fan would know a teams colors, but this is not apparent in Steeler nation. I am not writing this to be offensive but to prove a point.
After all cities very own college is, in fact, blue and gold in the Pitt Panthers. Your own Pitt Panthers! This gold looks nothing like the so called "gold" that the Steelers have because it is yellow.

The Saints gold looks just like the 49ers gold as well. Wow! |
If that wasn't enough I will give the ultimate example, the ultimate comparison. The New Orleans Saints, recent Super Bowl champions are BLACK AND....GOLD. My oh my, who would have thought that? It seems fitting how their colors are black and gold and they call them black and gold.
Now check this out after looking at the sea of gold which I have provided...

I deeply apologize for bringing this to your attention Steeler fans, but you do not get a special new found shade of gold which is yellow just because it sounds better to say black and gold. Really, it is better to say black and yellow, then to completely fumble on your own colors. If you want to say black and gold change the yellow to gold. It is that simple.
I'm a pretty big Steelers fans and I think the same thing everytime that they say black and gold for the Steelers colors. It makes sense for the Penguins...and that's about it in Pittsburgh....
ReplyDeleteI know you are and I am glad you agree. I am not attacking only stating a fact. I just don't understand especially when your own college has colors that are blue and gold how can you not distinguish the difference between yellow and gold. It sounding better is no excuse at all. Steelers fans need to grow up.
