Senate Race Recount, Steelers Tailgate Bans & Runaway Horse Returns!

It’s the Friday news roundup! One of the main parking groups around Acrisure Stadium is enforcing abrupt new limits on how many people can tailgate at a single parking space, and Steelers fans are not happy about it headed into the weekend’s big Ravens game.
