“Meeting Ben today was very surreal and truly made my day,” said Jaylen Lovett, child life specialist and former patient at Dayton Children’s neonatal intensive care unit.
As a father of three, Roethlisberger understands the role pediatric hospitals play in a family’s life, he said, as his own children have received care at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center’s Children’s Hospital.
While at Dayton Children’s, Roethlisberger met with hospital president and CEO Debbie Feldman to learn more about the hospital’s mission and the work being done to care for children in the region. Feldman is also a fellow graduate of Miami University, where Roethlisberger played college football.
Roethlisberger toured the NICU, spending time with patients, their families and a couple hospital facility dogs, Millie and Peppermint.
“As a lifelong Steelers fan and Pittsburgh supporter, it was an amazing experience meeting the guy who brought so many different emotions to me and helped me grow a love for the game of football,” Lovett said. “I still can’t stop smiling just thinking that Ben himself let me hold his Super Bowl ring.”

September 27, 2024: Big Ben makes a wish come true:
From Make-A-Wish of Greater PA & WV today:
We were thrilled to host 17-year-old Antione and his family from Make-A-Wish Greater Virginia to meet our friend Ben Roethlisberger right here in the #Burgh. The two hung out at a Topgolf bay this afternoon, enjoying lunch and chatting about all things sports – especially football. 
While in town, Antione, who is diagnosed with a brain tumor, will also have the chance to tour Acrisure Stadium and the Hall of Honor.
Many thanks to Ben for taking time out of retirement for this super fan, and to Topgolf for a great lunch and fun afternoon.
Antione’s wish was also made possible thanks to the support of Fanatics, the official sports partner of Make-A-Wish America.
