Hey all,
I lived in Pittsburgh for a few years and started following the Steelers through friends when there (the total media saturation helped too I guess). Now I am back home in Perth (Australia) and regularly skip work to watch the games when the Steelers are lucky enough to be one of the 4/5 games a week on the various networks here that play some games (such as with the great win yesterday morning my time :yellowthumb:).
According to Google Earth, this is my trip to Heinz field (it includes 16,000 km of Kayaking apparently):

Personally, I think the 30 or so hours worth of flying would be the better bet (either through London or LA, it takes about the same time - yes, this literally is the opposite side of the world).
Cheers,
Nick
