Answers:
Who were the top two vote getters for the Heisman trophy in 1964?
A Pittsburgh Urban legend. Some people say when the Chief owned the team he had to pay US Steel for use of the Steel symbol (the 3 diamonds) and that he was too cheap to pay for it twice per man. Thats the most popular falce story. So the real answer. In 1962 the Steelers replaced the player's numbers (Chargers style) with the current logo. The Rooneys weren't sure how it would look on an all gold helmet. That season the team posted it's best record to date and qualified for the playoff bowl. The team wanted to do something special for making the playoff bowl for the first time and changed the color to black. It's stuck ever since. Afterall why mess with a good thing?Who is Po Jackson? and what is intersection in the NFL?

The new Steelmark logo was originally only applied to one side of the helmet (the right side) by equipment manager Jack Hart because the Steelers were uncertain how it would look on their solid gold helmets. Even when they later switched their helmet color to solid black, they decided to permanently retain the logo on just the one side due to the team's new success and the interest generated by the logo's uniqueness.People!

Well the answer is right on pittsburghsteelers.com and the short story is they weren't sure how it would look so Rooney had it put on only one side, the Right side. They made the Playoffs and had the most successful year and so they left it as only on one side. They also switched the helmet from "Steeler's Gold" to black to celebrate and this year in honor of their 75th anniversary they will wear a special throwback uniform for only the two games. That uniform will include the "gold" helmet and will be the home opener and a Monday Night game. Just remember that "Pittsburgh Gold" is actually more of a yellow color.More Questions & Answers...
