The NFL made it official on Tuesday, announcing the game will be played at Croke Park in Dublin at 9:30 a.m. Pittsburgh time. Croke Park is Ireland's largest sporting arena. With the Steelers going international, it has many Pittsburghers asking how they can travel across the pond to watch the black and gold. Aer Lingus expands North American footprint ahead of Steelers-Vikings game Aer Lingus has been named an official airline partner of the Steelers, and they will fly the team, coaches, and support staff to Ireland for the game on September 28.
