State Paying for Steelers Parade

The Pittsburgh Steelers Super Bowl victory parade cost $79,500 --- and the state is paying for it.

City officials say the cost of Tuesday's parade was far less than the $500,000 the city spent for police to patrol several neighborhoods on Sunday to keep rowdy fans under control. That cost will also be covered by a state grant earmarked for regional events.

City officials say no one was arrested at the parade, which about 350,000 people attended.

The Steelers didn't contribute money to defray the costs
