The Steelers’ boycott of Pride Nights has ignited a firestorm on social media, with reactions ranging from support to outright confusion. Some fans praised the team for taking a stand against what they perceive as “woke culture,” while others were baffled by the association of Pride events with satanism.
“I support the Steelers 100%,” tweeted @IronCityTough78. “Football has always been about grit, not glitter. Keep your woke agenda out of my Sundays.” However, other fans, like @SteelersFanSinceBirth69, questioned the logic behind the decision: “How does supporting LGBTQ+ fans make a football team ‘satanic’? Did I miss the part where rainbows are a gateway to hell?”
Even the Church of Satan weighed in, humorously clarifying, “We can confirm that we had nothing to do with Pride Nights. However, we do support glitter.” The tweet underscored the bizarre turn the conversation has taken, as the Steelers face criticism from all sides.
