"Our goal is to provide a positive Heinz Field experience for all fans from the time they enter the parking lots before events until they exit the lots afterwards," said Heinz Field Executive Director of Stadium Management,Jim Sacco. "P.R.I.D.E. is a team effort that combines fans, staff and players working together to keep Heinz Field a fan-friendly environment."
 
The goal of the code of conduct is to have fans work together with people around them to help promote responsible fan behavior in the stadium and in the parking lots. 
 
Any fan in violation of these provisions will be subject to ejection without refund and loss of ticket privileges for future games. Season ticket holders and event patrons are responsible for their conduct as well as the conduct of their guests and/or persons occupying their seats.
