The NFL Week 15 schedule says that the Falcons are playing a home game this week, but if you turn the game on, you'll probably notice it looks more like a road game -- and that's because Steelers fans have taken over the Georgia Dome.
They're literally everywhere.
Generous of the Steelers to allot 500 or so tickets to Atlanta fans. #SeasonOfGiving pic.twitter.com/0XvDyUbODT

Maybe Falcons fans just didn't want spend money on tickets.
Two weeks ago, when the Cardinals played in Atlanta, fans could get into the game for as little as $10. Thanks to the 'Steelers fan inflation,' the cheapest tickets for Sunday's game were going for over $165 on the secondary market.
The Steelers have jumped out to an early lead after one quarter at 'Heinz Field South.' To keep tabs on the game, be sure to head over to our CBSSports.com game tracker here.
Steeler Nation never ceases to amaze me. The GA dome already looks like Heinz Field! Way to represent! Hines
