There is quite an amount of veterans, like Pittsburgh Steelers, who possess many unique features. And they have won most of titles too. The Steelers took part in Super Bowl cup for 8 times, and 6 times they were victorious. Only they are allowed to draw their starry logo on only one side of helmets. But why is the beloved logo such an exception? What is so special about it? How was it created? We\u2019ll start with the most interesting parts of it and tell you everything in this article.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_17 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-transparent\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class=\"ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1\"><li class=\"ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2\"><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/turbologo.com\/articles\/pittsburgh-steelers-logo\/#steelers_logo_history_-_origin_of_pittsburgh_steelers\" title=\"Steelers logo History &#8211; Origin of Pittsburgh Steelers\">Steelers logo History &#8211; Origin of Pittsburgh Steelers<\/a><\/li><li class=\"ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2\"><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/turbologo.com\/articles\/pittsburgh-steelers-logo\/#steelers_logo_meaning\" title=\"Steelers logo meaning\">Steelers logo meaning<\/a><\/li><li class=\"ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2\"><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/turbologo.com\/articles\/pittsburgh-steelers-logo\/#steelers_logo_evolution\" title=\"Steelers logo evolution\">Steelers logo evolution<\/a><\/li><li class=\"ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2\"><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/turbologo.com\/articles\/pittsburgh-steelers-logo\/#privileges_for_steelers_logo\" title=\"Privileges for Steelers\u2019 logo\">Privileges for Steelers\u2019 logo<\/a><\/li><li class=\"ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2\"><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-5\" href=\"https:\/\/turbologo.com\/articles\/pittsburgh-steelers-logo\/#steelers_logo_font\" title=\"Steelers logo font\">Steelers logo font<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"p4\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"steelers_logo_history_-_origin_of_pittsburgh_steelers\"><\/span>Steelers logo History &#8211; Origin of Pittsburgh Steelers<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084816\/Arthur-Rooney.png\" alt=\"Arthur Rooney\" class=\"wp-image-1493\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084816\/Arthur-Rooney.png 1024w, https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084816\/Arthur-Rooney-300x176.png 300w, https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084816\/Arthur-Rooney-768x450.png 768w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 958px) 958px, 100vw\" data-full=\"https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084816\/Arthur-Rooney.png\" data-full-size=\"1024x600\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p2\">The team was founded in 1933 thanks to Arthur Rooney. It was he who brought together first members of the famous team as he valued sports more than his own life. The initial name, however, was Pittsburgh Pirates. The first <a href=\"https:\/\/turbologo.com\/articles\/logo-design-inspiration\/\">design inspiration<\/a> for creation of the team unique uniform was Pittsburgh flag and its colors. Main colors were black, yellow and some inclusions of blue and white. It is hard to tell whether it was the team\u2019s name or 30s in America were unlucky in general, but after a sequence of failures the name was altered. It was in 1945 when some other names were also altered the final variation called \u201cPittsburgh Steelers\u201d was approved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084816\/Pittsburgh-Steelers-first-logo.png\" alt=\"Pittsburgh Steelers first logo\" class=\"wp-image-1494\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084816\/Pittsburgh-Steelers-first-logo.png 1024w, https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084816\/Pittsburgh-Steelers-first-logo-300x176.png 300w, https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084816\/Pittsburgh-Steelers-first-logo-768x450.png 768w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 958px) 958px, 100vw\" data-full=\"https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084816\/Pittsburgh-Steelers-first-logo.png\" data-full-size=\"1024x600\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p2\">One of the funniest moments in the team\u2019s history is Rooney\u2019s utterance which he issued after another <a href=\"https:\/\/turbologo.com\/articles\/image-file-formats\/\">image<\/a> alteration. The team was training when reporters were shooting it and Rooney said ironically \u201cThey look like the Steelers to me &#8211; in green jerseys.\u201d And the utterance quickly became a symbol of unsuccessful efforts. And then the phrase even turned into a cheer. When the team was losing fans used to shout \u201cSame old Steelers\u201d. As we can see, even the most attractive <a href=\"https:\/\/turbologo.com\">logo<\/a> can\u2019t change the core of what it represents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"p4\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"steelers_logo_meaning\"><\/span>Steelers logo meaning<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p2\">The team image making begins with resorting to<strong> symbols of the city<\/strong>. Pittsburg is well <strong>known for its steel industry<\/strong> and that is why the team is named \u201cSteelers\u201d. And the team used to wear the city\u2019s colors. And the colors weren\u2019t picked just by chance. <strong>Black and yellow symbolize two essential elements for making steel which are iron ore and coal.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p2\">Pittsburgh Steelers initial logo was nothing but a depiction of fabrics and factories. However, American Iron and Steel Institute emblem was chosen to replace the previous one. The Institute emblem was altered a bit and it turned into a circle with three stars and \u201cSteelers\u201d word inside of it. <strong>Yellow color symbolizes coal, blue stands for steel and red means iron.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"steelers_logo_evolution\"><\/span>Steelers logo evolution<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084814\/Pittsburgh-Steelers-logo-history.png\" alt=\"Pittsburgh Steelers logo history\" class=\"wp-image-1496\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084814\/Pittsburgh-Steelers-logo-history.png 1024w, https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084814\/Pittsburgh-Steelers-logo-history-300x176.png 300w, https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084814\/Pittsburgh-Steelers-logo-history-768x450.png 768w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 958px) 958px, 100vw\" data-full=\"https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084814\/Pittsburgh-Steelers-logo-history.png\" data-full-size=\"1024x600\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p2\">So, one thing begets another here. That\u2019s why the Steeler\u2019s charm is called Steely McBeam. It is clear that a factory worker is meant and \u201cMc\u201d prefix symbolizes Arthur Rooney\u2019s Irish origins. And \u201cBeam\u201d surname is related to Pittsburgh steel beams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084814\/Pittsburgh-Steelers-logo.png\" alt=\"Pittsburgh Steelers logo\" class=\"wp-image-1497\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084814\/Pittsburgh-Steelers-logo.png 1024w, https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084814\/Pittsburgh-Steelers-logo-300x176.png 300w, https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084814\/Pittsburgh-Steelers-logo-768x450.png 768w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 958px) 958px, 100vw\" data-full=\"https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084814\/Pittsburgh-Steelers-logo.png\" data-full-size=\"1024x600\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"p4\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"privileges_for_steelers_logo\"><\/span>Privileges for Steelers\u2019 logo<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084813\/Pittsburgh-Steelers-photo.png\" alt=\"Pittsburgh Steelers photo\" class=\"wp-image-1498\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084813\/Pittsburgh-Steelers-photo.png 1024w, https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084813\/Pittsburgh-Steelers-photo-300x176.png 300w, https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084813\/Pittsburgh-Steelers-photo-768x450.png 768w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 958px) 958px, 100vw\" data-full=\"https:\/\/assets.turbologo.com\/blog\/en\/2019\/12\/19084813\/Pittsburgh-Steelers-photo.png\" data-full-size=\"1024x600\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p2\">The funny twist is that the team draws its logo only on right side of their helmets. But why is it so? If we look back to past we\u2019ll see that branding rules weren\u2019t as strict as they are today. Dan Rooney, the team\u2019s founder\u2019s son, has simply drawn it there. And then he just didn\u2019t allow to question his decision as it is this helmet design that brought a succession of victories to the team. Well, this is pretty much the story behind the placement of the logo on Pittsburg Steelers helmets!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"steelers_logo_font\"><\/span>Steelers logo font<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Steelers logo is featured a <strong>Gunplay <\/strong>font from <strong>Typodermic Fonts family<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Do you remember what team is the oldest in football association?
