July 22, 2012: Steelers-themed beach wedding692 viewsFrom Heather Askin:

"We renewed our vows for our 18th Anniversary at Emerald Isle, North Carolina. We have been vacationing there for 12 years now! I am originally from Butler, Pennsylvania but moved to Kentucky when I was 14 because of my dad's job! I will always bleed black and gold! Every year for our Anniversary we buy each other tickets to watch the Steelers play in Cincinnati as a gift!"

August 30, 2022 - It's a Tattoo Tuesday!691 viewsFrom Frank Gagliardo, of North Babylon, New York:

â€œAlert alertâ€, â€œBlue 80â€, calls from the â€œFranchiseâ€ #7 wonâ€™t be heard this fall. Sundays wonâ€™t be the same without #7 calling the plays. I honor of Ben and his career, I just got the attached Tattoo on my arm, done by Edwin Oquendo, Owner of Tattoo Maven.

Obviously I am a huge Ben Roethlisberger fan! Why else would I get another man tattooed on my forearm? Lol

BTW â€“ I have another tattoo with Benâ€™s quote from last year, that he would never play for another team but the Steelers.

Throughout the past 17 years, I have purchased just about everything imaginable of Big Benâ€™s. From his College Jersey, to Steelers Jersey (Reebok to Nike), home, away, bumble bee, alternate, to his BBQ Sauce, to his Nike sneakers after his rookie year, to hats, T-shirts, you name it, I have it. Living in New York, my wife & I still attended two games per year.

February, 2015 - Humane Society Golf Outing680 viewsLeft to Right: Russ Wilson, Kevin Piccola, John Buljat, and me, Dave Hajel. This was the annual fundraiser for the Humane Society of Somerset County held at Arnold Palmer's Indian Lake Private Course outside of Somerset Pa.

We are super die-hard Steeler and Ben fans of course! Ben owes no apologies!!! He is the ultimate warrior and we would never trade him for any other QB! We suffered through the long drought in the 80's and 90's...we appreciate him and all he has done, does, and will continue to do!!! It all changed when #7 was drafted...We consider him The Chosen One! Love where this team is headed and love the fact he is at the helm!

The shelter really appreciates the support Ben gives to Police Canine Units! And we love the fact he is an avid golfer...I'm sure we could find a team that is looking for a fourth in this summer's tournament if he is available...If his contract is not done by then I will sponsor him! Lol!

Brad put one away on a recent trip there for dinner...although he admits he did take his time! It comes complete with a Steelers flag and a carved number 7 in the top bun!

Thank you Brad!

Tony Gregory679 views"He passed away three years ago. Tony was the biggest Steelers fan ever. We put my brother-in-law's Big Ben jersey in his casket. I know that up in heaven Tony watches over the Steelers, and he has Ben's jersey with him for eternity." -- Tony's sister, Robyn Gregory.

"He owned Ben's, Hines' and Jerome's jerseys, several t-shirts and several sweatshirts. He always requested them for birthdays and Christmas. He would always go with Dustin to Westys ( bar at the bowling alley) to watch Steeler games and drink his sodas." -- Tony's sister, Marla Gregory Richardson
