That is at Swayambhunath (also known as the Monkey Temple for all the monkeys that live there). I take Steelers gear all over Asia. Am currently in Oman. Black and Gold 4Ever.

The Guthrie Family449 views"My family at the Steelers/Cardinals game here at the University of Phoenix Stadium in week 7 of 2011. I brought my mom Myrtle Evans, my sister Erika Schaltenbrand, brother-in-law Dale Schaltenbrand, and their son Joey Schaltenbrand down from the 'Burgh, and Rajan and I took them to the game. It was like a home game; I'm sure there were more Steelers' fans than Cards' fans at the stadium that day! It was one of the best days, maybe THE best day we've all ever spent together." -- Richard Guthrie

Showin' off the collection449 views"I have been happy with Ben since Day 1. I am 44 and been a Steelers fan all my life. Without Ben, the Steelers would not have gotten to 3 superbowls. I have been to camp but have never met him. Tell Ben I said hi! would love to meet him or get an autograph someday!!" -- Ronn Roden, Marietta PA - 230 miles east of Heinz field.

June 3, 2018 - "Thank you Ben!"449 viewsâ€œMy friend Jim and I were at the UPMC Lemieux Sports Complex for the Pens practice in May. We were standing in the parking lot talking and a gentleman approached us and stated that Ben was here, working out in the upstairs gym. We went inside and checked it out. Jim and I were both lucky to have something on us at the time for Ben to sign if we found him.
Ben walked out towards the exit and he was on the phone, I approached him and asked if he would mind signing my jersey and my friends photo. He signed both items for us! He could have kept on walking but he was nice enough to stop. We were both in complete disbelief that we actually got the chance to see Ben, let alone have him sign an autograph!!
Ben, I just wanted to personally thank you for stopping and signing my jersey and my friends photo yesterday. We both appreciate it, wishing you the best this season and into the future!â€ â€” Mike Slagle.

*Mike, thank YOU for sharing your story & photos with us!

Golf Channel's Brian Cooper448 views"If you had the chance to watch Golf Channel's series 'Big Break Greenbrier', you would see that I'm very loyal to my roots of being raised in western Pennsylvania. Aside from carrying the Terrible Towel on my bag while filming the show, I also wore a Steelers belt buckle. And it so happens that #7 is my favorite number, making Ben my favorite player. The Steelers are an integral part of that town and I love being part of Steeler Nation." -- Brian Cooper, Coopsgolf.com

From Monterrey, Mexico to the Steel City to catch a game!447 viewsThe Regios De Acero Steelers Fan Club traveled by bus from Mexico to Pittsburgh to see their beloved Steelers LIVE!

Regular readers are familiar with this hardy crew of Steelers fans who wear their love for their favorite team (and their favorite player) on their backs as part of their everyday attire!

Sure, they watch their Steelers at home in Mexico, and theyâ€™ve traveled to Kansas, Arizona, and to Dallas for Super Bowl XLV to see them play (they didnâ€™t have tickets, but they did tailgate and watch the game on TV), but their dream was to see a Steelers game in THEIR home!

They finally made their own dream come true on December 15th!

From Roger Saucedo on their unforgettable trip:

The trip to Pittsburgh started on Thursday, December 12th at 7:00 am. A group of around 25 Steelers fans leave Monterrey to Pittsburgh. We pass the border by McAllen,Texas. The plan was go non-stop to Pittsburgh, just stop to buy food and gas for the bus.

We finally arrived in Pittsburgh on Friday, December 13th by 11:00pm which means we completed the trip from Monterrey to the Steel City in around 40 hours. Obviously all were tired but happy because we will be at the game at Heinz Fieldâ€¦and we arrived while it was snowing....

November, 2014: Fan Photos447 views"Iâ€™m a die hard Steelers fan. Ben, you are my favorite player all-time. My wife and I had our engagement pictures done in the black and yellow. Hope you enjoy the picture." -- Cory Russell
