Ben with the Hallsey's thank you Ben @_bigben7 just before tonight's game
In February of this year, young Tyler Hallsey was diagnosed with Pontine Glioma - a tumor surrounding the brain stem.. He had the opportunity to attend the game with his family.
It was a great night for Tyler, who also got to meet and pose with Brett Keisel and Troy Polamalu, the man whose jersey he is wearing!
From Tyler's father, Chris, via the site's Facebook page:

Can't thank Ben enough for this...a dream come true for Tyler. As his father, seeing my son smile like this is worth more than anything in the world. Thank you thank you thank you! #‎whateverittakestylerhallsey
