ENJOYING THE SUPER BOWL

This picture is featured in front page of Pittsburgh Post-Gazette newspaper on Monday, February 4, 2019. From the caption of the photo:

Bernard Rolewitz, 90, of Gibsonia, second from right, and Chris Noschese, 70, of Forest Hills, right, react Sunday after the New England Patriots’ first score against the Los Angeles Rams as they watch the Super Bowl at Pittsburgh Association of the Deaf in Uptown. This room was quiet but animated with excited sign language as about 85 people in the deaf community gathered to watch the game at the club. “You see all different kinds of people here,” Mr. Noschese signed, as interpreted by Jean Toner. “Very diverse. Young, old, different ethnicities, but we’re all close-knit. Like a family.” The Patriots won, 13-3, typing the Steelers for most Super Bowl championships at six.
