The Pittsburgh Steelers (abbreviated as PIT) are a professional American football team based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA. The Steelers compete in the National Football League (NFL) as a member club of the North division of the American Football Conference (AFC). This unofficial Pittsburgh Steelers fan flag consists of the team's official logo and a black background derived from the logo.
The Pittsburgh Steelers logo features three astroids, which are essentially hypocycloids, in yellow, red, and blue. The design is inspired by the steel industry, a key part of Pittsburgh's history, and the team's name, "Steelers," reflects the city's industrial heritage. The three astroids represent the three materials (coal, iron, and steel scrap) used in steel production and convey strength and unity. Overall, the logo symbolizes the team's deep connection to Pittsburgh and its blue-collar work ethic.
