The expression, ‘lock the gates,’ has been said within the Pitt program for some time, but has become more prominent in the school’s marketing during this offseason. It is painted on the ground as players take the field at the UPMC Rooney Sports Complex in the South Side. It harkens back to the days when gladiators were locked into the Coliseum floor often, ironically enough, with lions.

Apparently Pitt doesn’t realize you’re not supposed to lock the gates before the game starts....maybe if they knew that, more people would be able to get in.

Fascinating. We need more pitt threads on this board.

Yeah we do.
To click or not to click?

I agree. Lock the gates.

That's the only way they can keep their ten or twenty fans there to the end of the game so they can enjoy a delicious beverage.

I got news for them. Nobody is trying to get in.

Good to hear from the thread police - 24/7 job I guess. Keeping us safe from Pitt threads for 25 years.

Thanks for the article. There is no question that this is bigger for Pitt then us.

Thank you for the daily Pitt update. You and your butt buddies care more about them than their own fans.

They must mean that Heinz Field gates were locked by accident during a pitt game. It was so empty and quiet that security crew was unaware.

I really didn’t find anything outrageous in their comments. We will be ranked and if they ever get to the next level beating ranked opponents is what they will have to do.

Does that mean they are locking the gates on Wanny's Wall?
