On top of the incline, on top of "Mt Washington" (think of it as a big bluff f that overlooks the city) ... there are all kinds of bars and restaurants, with "Red Beard's" my favorite. Its an old school Pittsburgh Sports Bar that serves Perogies !
Now across the river from there is the Stadium. Lots of people tailgate on the side of river across from the Stadium, the "Mt. Washington" side .... there are shuttle boats aka ferries that constantly run to and fro ... it really is an experience. Shuttle/ferries are cheap.
The second Red Beards in the downtown, close to The Strip ... that's relativally new and is your typical yuppy bar ... go to the Old School one ... its real 'merica.

I have not been to a Pit game but for the Steelers games many people eat and drink in the strip district and then walk across the bridge to the stadium. I've been waiting for years to go there for the Clemson game. It is a great sports city and beautiful city scape setting with the 3 rivers (don't miss the park where the rivers converge), Mt Washington and the other things you mention. Let's play up to the level of the background - GO TIGERS

Personally, I love the city of Pittsburgh. I've had some good experiences there and enjoy visiting. Steeler fans are crazy, but in a funny way and very loud and obnoxious. It's way more of an NFL town than a college town, but that's to be expected with the success of the Steelers and lack of same from the Panthers.
