Pittsburgh Mayor to Change Name Before AFC Championship Game

Associated Press
Published | Updated

PITTSBURGH – What's in a name?

For Pittsburgh Mayor Luke Ravenstahl the answer is about to be the name of his favorite football team.

Ravenstahl has called a Wednesday morning news conference at which he'll announce he's "changing" his last name to Steelerstahl — at least through the end of Sunday's AFC Championship game between the Pittsburgh Steelers and their arch rivals, the Baltimore Ravens.

Ravenstahl's office says only that the mayor "will make an important announcement sure to please the Steeler Nation." But KDKA-TV, the local CBS affiliate which will air the game, says the mayor will announce his name change then.
