Steelers celebrate Super Bowl win in organic T-shirts

Steelers celebrate Super Bowl win in organic T-shirts

Steelers championship T-shritI'm a huge Pittsburgh fan, so I don't need any extra motivation to celebrate last night's thrilling Steelers victory. (You've heard of tennis elbow? Today I'm suffering from Terrible Towel elbow.)

If for some reason you were rooting for the Cardinals, though, or just didn't care at all, here's something you can still be happy about.

Those T-shirts everyone on the winning team donned after the game (and that will be sold to thousands of fans all over the country) were organic, according to Green Options Media. The NFL also purchased renewable energy to power the Super Bowl.

NRDC has done a lot of work with Major League Baseball and other leagues to make them more eco-friendly. I'm glad to learn that my favorite sport also cares about being more green.

Today, though, my favorite colors and black and gold. Can't wait to start wearing my organic championship shirt.
