Catching a football game on TV isn't as easy as it once was. Unless you live locally with your favorite team, it can be challenging to find a way to watch the game. This year, the Pittsburgh Steelers have one more road game than they do at home, and it will require most fans a plethora of subscriptions to streaming services if they want to catch all seventeen regular season contests.
Whether it's due to the cost of streaming services, blackout games, or prior obligations, most fans will find themselves in a situation where they can't get the Steelers game on TV. When this happens, listening to the game on the radio is a free and entertaining substitute.
Sure, this requires fans to visualize what is happening during the game, but the enthusiastic voices calling the play-by-play and providing the color commentary make it easy to picture what's going on. Here's how you can listen to the Pittsburgh Steelers on the radio in 2024.
