NFL fans don’t hold back on the Pittsburgh Steelers’ uniforms on Sunday: Social media reactions and memes

Several NFL teams donned throwbacks for Sunday’s games, but none were as painful to the eyes as the Pittsburgh Steelers’ threads from the 1930s.

The bright yellow shirt was complete with black stripes, giving them the bumblebee look, but the pattern wasn’t even consistent stripes, which may have actually been better. And then we had the nude pants - an interesting choice indeed, but I’ll give them credit that for those with poor vision, it added to the entertainment value.

The look was complete with long, yellow socks and a bright yellow helmet with white block numbers on the front of the shirts and black numbers and names on the back of the shirts.

Steelers fans rip throwback uniforms

With uniforms that eccentric, you can’t lose. That’s just embarrassing. And yet, the Steelers came out the other side with a 35-25 loss to quarterback Aaron Rodgers’ former team, the Green Bay Packers, hanging their bright yellow helmets in shame.

The fans had a lot to say about the uniforms, and none of it was good. But it was pretty hilarious.

Hopefully the Steelers have a better look, and better luck, next week when they face the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday, November 2.
