In memory of Connor....430 viewsWhen Kathleen Williams won the Big Ben Birthday Drawing in March, she was so excited when she saw the box on the front porch that she was giggling. But she also wanted to share her joy with her brother, Connor, who passed away suddenly at the age of 11 in 2012.

"The shoe now sits atop our shrine to the little man, which commemorates many good times for us (the three amigos) - all centered around our familial love of the Black and Gold. Thanks for the pleasant surprise and Here We Go Steelers!!! -- Pat Williams

The shoe now sits atop our shrine to the little man, which commemorates many good times for us (the three amigos)- all centered around our familial love of the Black and Gold.

Thanks for the Pleasant Surprise and
Here We Go Steelers!!!

Perfect Form!405 views"Here's a picture of my grandson Anthony with the Fathead of Big Ben that we bought him...I think he does "Big Ben" well! Ben is his favorite Steeler (and mine of course) and he always says he wants to be a Steeler someday... I couldn't ask for a better inspiration for him! He is hoping to go to Ben's camp some day soon to work on his passing skills and to learn from #7 himself!" -- Karen Siters

You need to click on this one again...515 viewsto get the BIGGER picture of this amazing Steelers Man Cave!

"I remember watching the 2004 draft praying Ben Roethlisberger would become a Pittsburgh Steeler. Some days, dreams do come true. I've loved every minute of it." -- Kirk Osgood, proud owner of this Man Cave!Apr 28, 2014

Nice collection!426 views"I'm not the type of person to buy merchandise and get it signed to re-sell it. My friend Brad Waite and I have made it a priority to go to training camp every year to see our favorite players and of course, the team. We are both die hard fans and always attend events and games whenever we can. Theres a lot of memories within these few items and many more to come." -- John FultonApr 28, 2014

Uho! 441 viewsI certainly hope these guys aren't planning on driving home in the Gnome Mobile without a DG (Designated Gnome) behind the wheel!

"Thought you guys might like seeing what my husband, Bruce does in his spare time. He searches all stores for these gnomes and paints them like the Steelers. They look like the offensive line. He paints them and gives them to friends and family and they are all over West Mifflin yards! Lol!!" -- Denise Cubakovic Apr 28, 2014

Three #7's watching #7!525 viewsLeft to right is Dawsen Rogers (2 years old), David Rogers and Cohen Rogers (5 years old). Cohen asked his mother, Tiffany, ""Ben is seriously going to see a picture of me...wearing his jersey! That's is soooo awesome!".

Thank you Tiffany!!Mar 29, 2014

Also from Matthew:

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.Mar 29, 2014

478 viewsDuring a recent trip to Nepal and Oman (on the southeast coast of the Arabian Peninsula), Matthew Leach ran into a group of Steelers fans..or at least that's his story!

"Omani camels love a Steelers fan. He wouldn't stop smiling! Some were quite vocal." -- MatthewMar 29, 2014

Thank you Ben!462 viewsFor the photo with my dad at the Phoenix airport. He proudly has been showing it off. His name is Victor Sharapan. Although we live in Las Vegas, we're from Pittsburgh and among some of the biggest Steelers fans you'll find. My dad also wanted to say sorry he crushed your knees on the plane with his seat back while one the plane. -- Michael SharapanMar 29, 2014
