During Pittsburgh’s annual First Night New Year’s Eve celebration, U. S. Steel took “Hot Takes presented by U. S. Steel” to the streets of the Steel City to see how much locals really know about steel and the city it helped build.
Despite the cold and heavy snow, attendees showed steely resolve by stepping up to answer questions for our camera. And because it wouldn’t be Pittsburgh without football, we also tested people’s knowledge of the Pittsburgh Steelers logo because - *spoiler alert* - there is direct tie to U. S. Steel.
Cold weather, hot takes, and a whole lot of Steel City pride. Watch the video to see how Pittsburgh handled the challenge.
