Pittsburgh Steelers Fans Allegedly Killed a Raven Bird, Taunted Baltimore Fans With It After Sunday’s Win [VIDEO]
This article was originally published on Total Pro Sports.
The rivalry between the Pittsburgh Steelers and Baltimore Ravens reached a new level during Week 18. Everything was on the line. The winner was going to win the AFC North and have a home playoff game.
Pittsburgh was so desperate that they had a priest throwing holy water in the end zones. It was a back-and-forth contest filled with controversy and big plays. It wouldn’t be an NFL game if fans didn’t complain about possible rigging.
The contest wouldn’t be decided until the final seconds. Twenty-seven points were scored in the fourth quarter. Three more and the Ravens would be playing in the Wild Card at home next Monday.
Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers had the stadium rocking with his last-second touchdown. Unfortunately for them, the Ravens got back down the field quickly and only needed a field goal. Tyler Loop came out and shanked it to the right.
Steelers fans went nuts. Some of them took it too far. Footage from the Stadium showed some home fans seemingly killing an actual Raven. They hung it from a rope just to taunt Ravens fans.

The Pittsburgh Steelers Are Set To Host The Houston Texans
Pittsburgh is open as an underdog in the playoffs. They are the AFC North champs with a home game, but sportsbooks do not believe in them.
The Pittsburgh Steelers improbably made it into the playoffs due to a missed Tyler Loop field goal. Now, the Steelers will look to capitalize on that gaffe. They are desperate to win a postseason game for the first time since the 2016 NFL playoffs.
Pittsburgh is set to host the Houston Texans in the wild-card round to kickstart their postseason run. The Texans earned the AFC’s No. 5 seed after posting a 12-5 record. They are also on a nine-game winning streak.
The lower-seeded Texans hold a slight edge over the Steelers in the contest, according to USA Today.
