It looks like Donald Trump will receive a very warm reception for Sunday’s game between the Pittsburgh Steelers and New York Jets at Acrisure Stadium, much to the chagrin of countless football fans.
The Steelers previously announced that Donald Trump will attend the “Sunday Night Football” clash between Russell Wilson’s squad and Aaron Rodgers’ Jets. Trump frequently attends professional sporting events, including the Alabama-Georgia game on Sept. 28.
And judging by the merchandise that’s being handed out ahead of the game, it’s safe to assume that Trump will receive plenty of cheers from Steelers Nation. That’s because Steelers fans outside of Acrisure Stadium are giving away “Terrible Towels” with Trump’s name on them:

Donald Trump held a rally at the Arnold Palmer Regional Airport in Pittsburgh on Saturday with the 2024 presidential election drawing closer. Pennsylvania is considered one of the key “swing states” for this year’s election, which Trump narrowly won in 2016 before losing it to Joe Biden in 2020.
Trump is running against Vice President Kamala Harris, who won the nomination easily after Joe Biden announced that he wouldn’t seek re-election. If Trump wins the 2024 election, he’ll become the second president to serve two non-consecutive terms, along with Grover Cleveland.
There’s plenty of hype around the Jets-Steelers game in Steel City, as it’ll mark the debuts of Davante Adams and Russell Wilson with their new teams. At 2-4, it’s also a must-win for Rodgers and the Jets as they try to sneak past a 4-2 Steelers team.
Donald Trump Has The Support Of NFL Owners
Trump is popular among NFL team owners, having received donations from Jerry Jones (Dallas Cowboys), Shad Khan (Jacksonville Jaguars), Stephen Ross (Miami Dolphins), Jimmy Haslam (Cleveland Browns), Stan Kroenke (Los Angeles Rams) and Robert Kraft (New England Patriots).
On top of that, former NFL stars Brett Favre, Mike Ditka, John Elway and Maurkice Pouncey have endorsed the Republican nominee.
