Club Information

NOW IN OUR 22nd SEASON OF PROUDLY CHEERING FOR OUR STEELERS FROM ATLANTA, GEORGIA!!

The Pittsburgh Steelers Fan Club of Atlanta (formerly the Steelers Fan Club of Gwinnett in Atlanta-metro) is an informal group of Pittsburgh Steeler fans whose sole purpose is to get together on Sundays to cheer the Steelers back to the Super Bowl. We have no officers, meetings, or dues. The only requirement for membership in this exclusive club is that you be a die-hard fan of the Black and Gold! Recruit for us, the more the merrier! We maintain a “membership” address list so that we can keep in touch with each other and so that we might meet up with some old buddies from the ‘Burgh.

The club meets for all Steelers games at five locations:

Twisted Tavern in Suwanee,

Dave & Busters in Duluth,

Three Dollar Cafe in McDonough,

Pepperoni’s Tavern, Alpharetta,

Jeffrey’s Sports Grill, Braselton.

Twisted Tavern in Suwanee, Ga is off the Lawrenceville Suwanee Road (rt 317) exit of I-85, just a couple of mles south of the Mall of Georgia exit.

Club History

The club was started in 1990 at the Falcon Inn, then the home of the Atlanta Falcons, in Suwanee Georgia since they had a satellite dish and were willing to put up with a few Steelers fans on Sundays. The club didn’t have a name back then since it was just a handful of diehards. The first game of the season wasn’t shown since lightning struck the satellite dish the night before. Things went downhill from there, although the staff was very friendly and we had some pretty good times there.

In 1991 Barnacle’s, then called Jordan’s, was opened in Duluth, Georgia near where many of us work. It was a great, convenient place to stop for a cold one after work and we got to know the owner and managers pretty well. When they installed a satellite dish before the 1991 season we jumped at the chance to move the club – and they accepted. That year we had a membership list of about 20 people.

In 2009, the Fan Club expanded to include a venue near the Mall of Georgia, Stone Creek Tavern. Stone Creek was added as a venue because so many of our members have moved to the areas surrounding the Mall of Georgia over the years. Unfortunately, Stone Creek Tavern closed the Mall of Georgia location after 1 season and relocated to the Dacula area.

In 2010, the fan club calls two new locations home: Twisted Tavern in Suwanee and Dave & Busters in Duluth. They are both eager to host the Steelers fan club. Our over 330 members are looking forward to fun times at our new home!

In 2011, three more locations are added as Fan Club venues – Three Dollar Cafe in McDonough, Pepperoni’s Tavern in Alpharetta, and Jeffrey’s Sports Grill in Braselton.
