As if we didn't already know that Steelers fans are crazy....

There is yet more proof.
Early this morning, my eyes popped open at around 3 AM. Do you ever have days like that? Where you wake up in the middle of the night and your body, for some unknown reason, thinks it's 7 AM? Well, that happened to me. After about 15 minutes of trying to will myself to sleep, I figured I'd turn on the television. The news was on. Which of course, did the trick. Within about 10 minutes, I was about to doze back off to sleep when I heard something on the news that woke me right up again.
A town outside of Pittsburgh has temporarily changed its name to Steeler, PA. You can read the Associated Press story for yourself.
The folks of Washington, PA don't want anyone to mistake them for Seattle Seahawks fans...you know, just because the name of their town is Washington.
"I know the folks in the state of Washington are rooting for the Seahawks, so we wanted to make sure everyone knows the city of Washington is fully in support of the Steelers." --Mayor Kenneth J. WestcottSo from now until Feb 6th, Washington will be officially known as Steeler. If you want to send a letter to any of these crazy Steelers fans, address the envelope to Washington, PA, though. The United States Postal Service doesn't recognize the name change.
