Steeler Nation is expected to infiltrate Northwest Stadium, the home of the Washington Commanders, on Sunday afternoon.
The Commanders organization knows it, so instead of trying to combat the Terrible Towels that will be waving, fans will be given burgundy towels so both together will blend to make Washington’s team colors.
The idea comes from former Washington running back, turned broadcaster, Brian Mitchell.
“We know the Steelers are going to come with their yellow, we’re going to it together, it’s going to be burgundy and gold,” said Mitchell.
The Burgundy towels will be given out to fans entering the stadium.
So, if you’re watching the game on TV, don’t be deceived, those gold towels are Terrible Towels!
