Atmosphere 
I have attended training camp almost every season dating back to 2009 and attending those practices interacting with the players and staff gets me fired up for the upcoming season. I’m sure for a lot of fans and players alike, it won’t feel the same this year once again.

Heinz Field is the right place for this year’s open practices to the public to be held and it will give the fans a chance to get the camp experience like the one back in Latrobe. But because of where fans will be seated, there won’t be the up-close viewpoint of practice from the sideline like you would have gotten. The sounds of practice will be the same, but the sightlines will be different. Case in point, Ticketmaster that mainly distributes gameday tickets for fans and guests has the seating chart available for training camp and with 1 field, it’ll be hard to follow everything that’s going on.
