Whittynickname lives there and she was able to give me some tips about things to do there. All in all I'd say not a bad city to visit.
As for tickets, they will sell out fast if the sales two years ago are any indication (I'm guessing since the team is now half decent they will be hard to come by). We actually had to buy ours on stubhub.
That's my two cents. Good luck.

...BBS is mistaken, we bought those tickets on ticketmaster, and we were able to get six together when we bought them (probably it was in September)...that was for a Saturday night game too. We had to use stubhub for the Steelers tickets.
BBS is also mistaken because Pittsburgh was not ugly...downtown is actually pretty darn nice, although Mellon is a bit of a dump, and the City turns into an absolute ghost town in the evening.
...as far as distance though, 3.5 hours might even be optimistic...most people don't realize how far it actually is to Pittsburgh.
