TFD: Steelers reportedly kick off Super Bowl week with "Make It Rain Monday"

Good times

We're pretty sure this is the story La Velle was referencing with his midnight text last night. From a Dallas Morning News Super Bowl blog and one very *intrepid* reporter:

It didn't take long for the Pittsburgh Steelers to sample some of the adult entertainment Dallas has to offer. Late Monday night, hours after they arrived here, Hines Ward, Ike Taylor and several other members of the Pittsburgh Steelers visited Dallas Gentlemen's Club on Northwest Highway in Dallas. Ward, wearing a plaid shirt and jeans, danced with a couple of strippers. At one point, he tossed out dollars while receiving lap dances. Other Steelers joined him. At one point, near midnight, the Steelers, including huge linemen, appeared on the main stage. There they posed and danced with an assortment of strippers. It was "Make It Rain Monday" at the club. And some of the players made it rain with their dollar bills. The disc jockey said that Green Bay Packer players were on the way, but I didn't spot any at the club.

Your thoughts on whether this is news -- seriously -- in the comments.
