PITTSBURGH (KDKA) — Crews made more moves Wednesday to remove old signs from the formerly named Heinz Field, now known as Acrisure Stadium.

First, crews removed the 'Heinz' sign from above Gate A. Once the sign hit the ground, it was time to bring down the 'field' sign.

On Monday, crews spent the day removing other signage and the infamous ketchup bottles.

The stadium was named Heinz Field when it opened in 2001 but became Acrisure Stadium earlier this month when the company bought the naming rights.

It is still not known what will happen with the old signs and bottles.
