More than a towel, the terrible towel is an iconic symbol of the Steelers nation. Steelers fans from around the world are united with the wave of gold. Created x former Steelers radio announcer Myron Cope during the playoffs in 1975, the Terrible Towel has withstood the times and is a staple in the homes of Steelers fans. A portion of the sales from the Terrible Towel benefits the Allegheny Valley School in Pittsburgh. A true Steelers' tradition and a proud way to show dedication to the team.
