The fifth-oldest franchise in the NFL (and the oldest in the AFC), the Steelers were founded as the Pittsburgh Pirates on July 8, 1933, by Art Rooney, taking its original name from the baseball team of the same name, as was often done by NFL teams at the time. The ownership of the Steelers has remained within the Rooney family since its founding, and the franchise is currently owned by Art's son, Dan Rooney, who has given much control of the franchise to his son Art Rooney II. Long one of the NFL's flagship teams, the Steelers enjoys a large, widespread fanbase nicknamed Steeler Nation. The Steelers currently play their home games at Heinz Field on Pittsburgh Pennsylvania's North Side, which also hosts the University of Pittsburgh Panthers. In 2001, the stadium replaced Three Rivers Stadium which had hosted the Steelers for 31 seasons. Prior to the Three Rivers Stadium, the Steelers had played their games in Pitt Stadium and Forbes Field.
