1. 80th Season T-Shirt: The Steelers are celebrating their 80th season in professional football (1933-2012). Steelers fans will love this black t-shirt, which features a logo commemorating the event. The shirt is 100 percent cotton and comes in several sizes. You can purchase it for $24.95 from Yahoo! Sports Shop.
2. Steelers DVD: The Steelers did not make a name for themselves until the 1970s. During this period, the team went from being a perennial loser to an NFL dynamo, winning seven division titles and four Super Bowls in the process. Steelers fans of all ages will enjoy watching the 130 minute DVD, which looks back at this great period in the team's history. You can purchase the DVD for only $14.95 at the Steelers' official online store.
3. Knit Hat: Steelers fans who are experiencing chilly weather will really appreciate this item. The 100 percent acrylic hat sports the team's official colors (black, gold, and white) and logo. You can purchase this hat from NFL Shop for $22.99.
