The Pittsburgh Steelers are a professional American football team based in Pittsburgh that competes in the National Football League as a member of the American Football Conference North division. The club joined the league as the Pittsburgh Pirates on July 8, 1933, under owner Art Rooney, and ownership has stayed with the Rooney family ever since. It was a losing franchise before the league merger, but in the modern era, and especially during its dynasty of the 1970s, it became one of the most successful in the sport. The Steelers are tied with the New England Patriots for the most Super Bowl titles, with six, and play their home games at Acrisure Stadium on the North Shore of Pittsburgh. Its fans are known as Steeler Nation.
