Its that time again Steelers Nation. The playoffs are here and the Pittsburgh Steelers enter the post season riding a 7 game winning streak and holding the 3rd seed in the American Football conference.
- And this time things are a little different for the men in Black and Gold.

For the first time ever, Ben Roethlisberger, Antonio Brown, Le’Veon Bell, DeAngelo Williams, Maurkice Pouncey, Lawrence Timmons, Stephon Tuitt, Ryan Shazier and James Harrison will play together in a playoff game. Injuries have prevented this from happening before, but the Steelers enter the playoffs as healthy has they have entered the post season in a long, long time.
- One thing that has not changed is that Steelers fans in Buenos Aires, Argentina will be gathering in Palermo’s Sugar Bar to watch the game.
So if you’re a fan of the Pittsburgh Steelers and you’re in Buenos Aires, whether you’re a native porteño or an expat whose passing through to sample some good red wine, drink some mate or enjoy some empanadas, bring your Terrible Towel and plan to join us at the Sugar Bar.
Is this a tradition for every game? I am a Pittsburgh native who will be in Buenos Aires during the playoff game this coming Sunday and would love to meet up with other fans!
Ashvin,
Yes, this was a tradition for playoff games. However Sugar closed 3-4 years ago.
I’m not aware of other bars showing games, although it might be possible to find one.
Chicken Brothers used to show games, but that was pre-pandemic.
If Steelers fans decide to gather, I’ll post something here and/or on Twitter.
