Tom & Alexis Keen - January 8, 2013 915 viewsMy wife and I were driving home from Florida after visiting her parents for the holidays and we ended up staying at the Hyatt Regency in Louisville Kentucky. It was funny because it was probably a 1 in 30 chance that we ended up at that hotel because we used Priceline to book it so we didn't get to choose where we stayed.

We were up in our room and looking on the Facebook page when we realized Big Ben, Brett Keisel, and Merril Hodge were in the area at the ATA Show. We decided to get dressed and walk around the hotel a bit, never thinking we would run into them. We walked down to the lobby and lterally two minutes later Big Ben walked in the front door.

Being huge Steelers fans for 25 years, my wife and I were totally stoked! I called out to him that I would love to get a picture with him and he hollered over to me, "Let's do it"!

We were so excited that night we could hardly sleep. Thank you so much Ben for stopping for us to get a picture and to make such an awesome memory.

Congratulations to you and your wife on having Ben Junior and much luck next year. Hopefully you can bring home number seven -- Tom Keen

#7's all in a row!!!843 views"Left to right in the photo is my fiancee, Kristin Nugent, followed by Mike Durcho, Jason Keim, and me...and of course our dog Daisy. This photo was taken the opening game of the season against Denver. We were doin' a little pre-gaming when we all noticed we had Ben jerseys on, and each one was different. Ben's Away, Throwback, Real Tree, and his college jersey. Of course we're all life-long Steeler fans from Johnstown, PA and we're all huge Ben fans.

"For myself, I've been waiting what seems like my whole life, for a quarterback as good as Big Ben. His toughness, leadership, and all around ability to lead the Steelers to victory is what makes Ben an easy favorite. Everyone in this photo says the same thing, when Ben is at the helm, it seem like we can't lose. We know as long as he's in the game, the Steelers got a shot to win. We are all proud members of Steeler nation, and proud fans of Ben Roethlisberger. "

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

April 7, 2012 - Julie Jones1472 viewsBen is not only the most popular guy in the airport this off-season, but in the grocery store as well!

Julie Jones, a PA native, met Ben while grocery shopping on the Saturday before Easter.

â€œMy birthday is tomorrow and I feel like I already got my wish! No make-up on and I meet the coolest quarterback ever,â€ said Julie. â€œHope I have the chance to meet him one day with my family.â€

What did they talk about?

â€œI told him how I â€˜bleed black & goldâ€™, and how I grew up going to the training camps with my dad, Marty. My Dad still goes! Ben got a kick out of that. And I just thanked him for doing such a good job for the team.

â€œHonestly, he never hurried me, he even met my husband. Just a really cool guy. He was very personable, friendly, and made us feel like we werenâ€™t bothering him at all. I was so nervous! My dad is so jealous!â€

Thank you so much Julie!!
