2012 Troy Polamalu Poynesian Luau1399 viewsBen poses with Nick Muna, who performed at the event.
From the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette:
The lucky 425 guests who got their tickets early made their way to the Westin Convention Center Friday night where the call of conch shells and Kukui nut leis welcomed all.
A traditional luau performance by Netane Polynesian Entertainment and the Fiji and Common Kings provided an authentic South Seas soundtrack to the soiree as well as spectacular ceremonial dances.
Steelers No. 43, Troy Polamalu, with his wife, Theodora, and their sons, Ephraim and Paisios, mingled during cocktails with guests including 84 Lumber's Joe Hardy, Jan and Richard Piacentini, Dick Singer, Bill Baierl, Dr. Joseph Maroon and The Pittsburgh Foundation's Lindsay Aroesty.
The party benefited the Troy Polamalu Football Camp in American Samoa and the Harry Panos Fund of The Pittsburgh Foundation, named after Theodora Polamalu's grandfather, which helps military veterans. Sponsored by Head & Shoulders and the Citrone family, the evening featured lots of flowing locks and flowery shirts.
Many of Polamalu's teammates were among the guests, including Ben Roethlisberger, Ziggy Hood (with Sara), Rashard Mendenhall, Casey Hampton, Charlie and Latasha Batch, Jerome Bettis and Heath Miller. Ryan Clark (with Yonka) and WDVE-FM's Randy Baumann acted as official live auctioneers, with Brett Keisel and James Harrison jumping in to encourage some major bidding. "Polamalisa" -- a "Mona Lisa"/Polamalu hybird painting signed by Troy -- brought in $12,000.

March 12, 2013 -- Bull meets Ben437 viewsThis fan story comes from Morris “Bull†Kay of Birmingham, Alabama, and took place on (where else but) the golf course:
"We were playing golf at Reynolds Plantation on the Great Waters Course, and Ben was playing behind us. My friend left his 4 wood on one of the previous holes and when Ben and his playing partner caught up to us we realized that they had picked it up for us. We immediately recognized him, and he was very nice to autograph a ball for us and to stand in for the photo op.
"It was nice and chilly that day with temperatures in the low to mid 50′s, but we noticed he was wearing shorts, lol. By the way, he hits the ball very well.
"All of my Steelers buddies are very jealous. Very nice guy!" – Morris “Bull†Kay
*Thank you Bull!!

Ben and Berger!998 viewsBaby Ben DeSantis is busy tasting his football while his dog Berger keeps a protective eye on him.
Ben's dad Paul said he has gotten "a lot of flack" for naming his female dog "Berger", but it worked better than "Ben". He saved that for his son!

Golf Channel's Brian Cooper422 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
