PITTSBURGH -- It feels like the fictional Gotham City is alive in Pittsburgh, even at Heinz Field.
Pittsburgh Steelers players pretended to be part of a fictitious team called the Gotham Rogues at Heinz Field when a scene for the new "Batman" movie was filmed Saturday.
Extras in the stands cheered for the fake team, which was wearing black and gold, while former Steelers head coach Bill Cowher was on the sidelines at the fictitious "Gotham Stadium."
Extras were told to wear winter gear for the scene in "The Dark Knight."
