Ben with a two-day old calf, which he named Benita1141 viewsAccording to ESPN writer David Fleming, who accompanied Ben on his trip:
"[Ben] was also asked to name a brown and white female calf that had been born on the farm two days earlier. Ben ignored my suggestion of 'Cow-her' and went with 'Benita', showing just slightly more innovation that the Steelers' 2006 offensive playbook".

From Vogard.com1251 viewsThe American Football star Ben Roethlisberger and his family recently paid a visit to Switzerland to discover their ancestry through the Swiss Roots organisation. Many typically Swiss customs and traditions were introduced to Ben during his five-day trip, but the one he found most interesting was watchmaking. Ben is a great watch enthusiast and so, at a special ceremony in his ancestral town of Lauperswil, he was presented with a VOGARD Personal Edition watch by the brand's creator, Michael Vogt. Ben asked to have the names of Pittsburgh and Lauperswil incorporated into the bezel and for the watch case to be engraved with No. 07, his Pittsburgh Steelers playing number.
Ben’s comment on the patented timezoner movement was brief and concise: "That’s a touch down". Michael is delighted that, from now on, everywhere Ben goes he will be accompanied by a little piece of Switzerland.
