So, to welcome the unofficial start of the 2012 NFL season, Patch.com is throwing a first-round draft party at 7 p.m. at the  near Bridgeville … and you’re invited!

We’ll be hanging out at the restaurant and pub in Collier Town Square on Route 50 all night Thursday as top picks Andrew Luck, RG3 and others go off the board. We’ll be chatting football and watching as the players are drafted before the Steelers select their new superstar with the 24th overall pick.
