If you’ve never been to Kennywood Park, you might want to make plans for a day out next year. After the amusement park unveiled plans to build a Pittsburgh Steelers-themed roller coaster called “The Steel Curtain” in 2019 — a ride that will be the centerpiece of an entire section of the park dedicated to the Black-and-gold — it’s set to be a must-visit attraction for Steelers fans when it opens.
Located in West Mifflin, Pennsylvania, a short 20-minute ride from Pittsburgh, Kennywood Park broke ground on the zone to be known as “Steelers Country” on Thursday, and were joined by former Steelers’ defensive lineman Chris Hoke for the ceremony.
