PITTSBURGH, PA — The recent name change from the Steelers home from Heinz Field to Acrisure Stadium has prompted a new yinzer birthday card from Pittsburgh comedian Jim Krenn, KDKA-AM morning show host Larry Richert and cartoonist Rob Rogers.

The greeting card spoofing the stadium name change titled “Naming Rights,” offers a birthday greeting that only Pittsburghers can appreciate. A big, bold “Happy Birthday” greets the reader on the front while the inside expresses, “sorry. . . I sold the naming rights to your birthday
card. Hope you have a good day anyway.”

A cartoon of a ketchup bottle has a label that reads, “your name here.”
