Chesney has played for almost 623,000 spectators in his 12 Acrisure Stadium/Heinz Field shows.

PITTSBURGH ― Country superstar Kenny Chesney’s 12th Pittsburgh stadium show Saturday drew a personal record of 60,126 spectators.

A flotilla of fans, eight and 10 boats deep, docked on the North Shore outside the stadium also partaking in the fun.

“They call it Steel Town for a reason,” Chesney said afterward in a press release. “They came to see with a purpose! Those hearts are so strong and true: you could hear it when they sang, and looking out, you could see it in the way they waved their arms side-to-side. They were on their feet and had their hands in the air the entire show. I knew I was going to do ‘There Goes My Life’ when I woke up, but seeing the entire stadium lit up with their lights? It’s one of the most beautiful memories of my life.”

Chesney’s 2024 tour has been setting personal records since kicking off in Tampa. Uncle Kracker and Megan Moroney, an Academy of Country Music Awards’ female nominee, joined Chesney on stage at Acrisure for “All The Pretty Girls.”

A total of 622,882 concertgoers have attended Chesney’s 12 Pittsburgh stadium shows, the press release said.

“Build it with friendship and love, and something really special happens,” Chesney said. “The band is white hot and so tight; you can feel how much fun they’re having with every solo and jam – and the audience picks up on that. It was an undeniably incredible night, and as much as people thought we were crazy doing this in Pittsburgh in 2005, I can say absolutely, No Shoes Nation always shows up and delivers. They lifted us again to new heights.”

Taylor Swift holds Acrisure/Heinz Field’s single-show attendance record of 73,117, set last year.

PITTSBURGH — With Russell Wilson being named the starting quarterback for the Pittsburgh Steelers, Justin Fields has continued to work towards more opportunities with his new team.

ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler spoke on the Steelers’ quarterback situation on NFL Live, providing new information he had heard.

“Russell Wilson’s undisputably the QB number one. He’s not splitting reps. However, I’ve talked to multiple teams who expect the Steelers to utilize Justin Fields as a runner and passer in the goal line, think eight yards and in.” said Fowler. “Arthur Smith, the new OC, used Derrick Henry as a quarterback/passer when he was in Tennessee calling plays, so why couldn’t you use a guy like Fields with his big-time ability?”

In three NFL seasons, Fields has totaled 2,220 rushing yards and 14 touchdowns, including a 1,000-yard season in 2022. The Steelers are favoring Russell Wilson as their starting quarterback, but the the athleticism that Fields carries, it shouldn’t surprise anyone if he does take snaps during a game.

If he does, it’ll also allow the Steelers to see what they have the in 25-year-old quarterback prior to his contract expiring. If Fields intends to be the future in Pittsburgh, and the Steelers intend to give him that opportunity, they may want to see how electric he can be during live-game action.
