Christmas, 2011 - Kristin Burghard 1713 viewsKristin (with a little help from her husband) shows off a very special gift from Ben.
Kristin was an entrant in a contest on Brett Keisel's official site during the 2011 Thanksgiving holiday called, "What are you thankful for?". Kristin is battling breast cancer and wanted to share her story and the fact that she was thankful for every day. She did not win the contest, but her entry made it's way here. Ben autographed one of his game-used pink & black Nike shoes worn during a game in October, which is the NFL's Breast Cancer Awareness month, and it was sent to Kristin.
From Kristin:
"Just wanted to let you know I received Ben's gift! I received it on Christmas Eve... It made our Christmas! I want Ben to know that this has been a very tough time for myself and for my family ... And this made us if just for a moment not to think about the breast cancer, and for that I am so very thankful! I know it's funny , but I love the fact that I know that Big Ben actually wore this!! I have my next chemo on Tuesday and it's a tough one.. And you know .. I'm taken Ben's cleat with me!! I need it to kick some cancer a**! Again, for you guys to take the time out of your busy schedule means so much! (Lost all my hair. Thought the pink wig would go with Ben's cleat !) "

September 18, 2015 - Brennan House538 views12-year old Brennen House is a life-long Steelers fan from Hagerstown, Indiana. His mom wanted to share this story with Ben and Steeler Nation:
“For three years, Brennen and his brother, Carter, have attended Ben’s ProCamps.
Their Grandparents, George and Terri Cecere of La Grange, Kentucky (also Steelers fans) have happily taken the boys on these trips to allow them these awesome experiences.
Brennen broke his arm in the beginning of May, but knew he would be getting out of his long-arm cast and into the short-arm right before it was time to head to camp. He chose a yellow cast and refused to let anyone sign it in the hopes that maybe, just maybe, Ben would.
While Brennen was sitting with his team on the first morning of camp, waiting to break off into their drills, Ben walked past Brennen and asked, ‘How are you going to catch a pass with your arm like that?’, to which Brennen responded, ‘I’ll find a way.’ While Carter’s team was playing football, Carter told Ben that the kid in the cast was his brother and he had a Sharpie in his sock, which made Ben laugh. After Brennen’s team played their football game, Ben approached Brennen and asked, ‘Do you still have that Sharpie in your sock?’.
Ben then proceeded to make Brennen’s year – he signed his cast!
Over the weekend the boys’ grandparents were at our home for a visit and they brought Brennen a shadow box containing the picture of Ben signing Brennen’s cast and the piece of cast – a unique and memorable treasure.
My son Carter, who is a Bears fan, was the kid at camp who impressed Ben by naming, in order, the ten players drafted before Ben in the 2004 draft that he won a signed hat.
Brennen not only caught all passes Ben threw to him, but ran one in for a touchdown. Such a wonderful memory for my boy!†– Joanna Dill

From David Arlott, a Pittsburgh native who now lives in Houston, Texas:496 views“In June, I took my son, Alex, to Pittsburgh for his 13th birthday. That was his first time visiting. Aside from the Pirates game and getting to see the Pens win the cup we also went to the US open during the Monday practice round. It was there we saw Ben visiting with the golfers on the practice range. We were walking away from the range and Ben happened to be walking around the corner and my son quickly asked him to take a photo with him. Big Ben obliged. Definitely made Alex’s day! Thank you Ben!!†— David.
