Lucky #7's!!642 viewsJames, Adyson, & Reagan Frazier.

"I have to tell you a story about my James. Even though he is bigger than his older sister, he is just 2 & he hasn't yet attained his older sister's verbal skills. The couple of weeks Ben was out with his injury, James watched the games with me & he would just look at Byron & Charlie with his head tilted to the side a little bit. He would cheer here & there during the games when I would cheer but he was generally quiet. Then came the Steelers/Chargers game.. When Ben stepped out onto the field, my little man went nuts! He was jumping up on the couch screaming, pointing at the TV. 'Gloo gloo glee' is his version of "Goooo Steelers" & he was yelling it, clapping, & grinning from ear to ear. It hit me Sunday, that James was confused the previous Sundays & that's why he had been so quiet. He missed our quarterback as much as Mommy did. My Reagan will tell anyone that listens, 'Ben Rofusberger is the best quarterback in football, hands down.' My youngest Ady-girl, it's just a matter of time! We love our Big Ben, Always!" -- Rachel Frazier

Football Campers at Heinz481 views"Myles and Connor (with little sister, Emilia) traveled all the way from Charlotte NC just for Big Ben's camp!!" -- Rachel Haines

Of course no trip is complete so close to Pittsburgh without a quick trip to Heinz Field before heading back for Day 2 of Ben's football camp!

February 5, 2021 - Lil' Fan Friday193 viewsâ€œIâ€™ll be honest, the look on your face after the playoff game with the Browns broke my heart. It has laid on my heart to share a story with you.

Meet my son Benâ€¦.yes named after you. (Quick back story. My brotherâ€™s a Bengals fan and he named his youngest Carson, after Carson palmer. I told him one day if I had a little boy Iâ€™d name him Ben, after Ben Roethlisberger) So here I have my Ben. Ben was born 17 weeks premature and spent 11 months at Nationwide Childrenâ€™s Hospital in Columbus, Ohio. He has cerebral palsy. He uses a wheelchair to get around â€“ which is black and yellow. He uses braces to help him walk. They have the Steelers helmet on them. He uses a communication device. He tells me â€œGo Steelers â€ Ben is 9-years old now. We watch football together and he tells me â€œBrowns stink!â€.

Iâ€™ve almost lost this boy too many times to count. This past summer we had a trip planned to Kennywood and to come watch a practice. Of course Covid happened so the trip was put on hold. We will get there soon. My son has never given up. As many times as I was told he was going to die and to turn off his machines, I told them it would be him in control of his own destiny. He never gave up.

You control your own destiny. Make this off-season your bit*h, and come back like never before!

I hope to make it to a practice or game soon. Iâ€™ll bring my miracle so I can show him also what it looks like to not give up.â€ â€” Rebecca.

Game ball for Lil' Fan Richard Culliver917 viewsâ€œThat was the first time weâ€™ve done the victory formation, I believe this year, to take a knee to end it, and I wanted to keep that. Thereâ€™s a little boy that's been very sick that has been on my website, and has been checking inâ€¦and I want to send that to him.â€ -- Ben, post-game when asked why he kept the game ball. October 21, 2012.

You can see how tightly Ben held on to that football after the game -

Richard's story:

http://bigben7.com/steelers-vs-titans-was-a-win/

October 11, 2012 - Richard Culliver1050 viewsRichard was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor just one week prior to the Steelers vs Titans game in Tennessee. His â€œabsolute dreamâ€ was to go to a Steelers game.

Thatâ€™s when Jason â€œMooseâ€ Cunningham and the members of Augusta SteelMasters, a Steelers fan club based in Augusta, Georgia stepped up. SteelMasters purchased the game tickets and assisted with the lodging for Richard and his family to make the trip to Tennesseeâ€™s LP Field from their home in South Carolina.

Game night arrived and not only did Richard get to watch his beloved Steelers in person, he got to meet them on the field before the game, courtesy of Coach Mike Tomlin who presented the family with field passes!

Richard, the new man about town (or at least about LP Field), was also asked by the Tennessee Titans cheerleaders to pose with them for a photo! After all, they had heard he was a â€œbig celebrityâ€!

August 29, 2010 - Steelers Preseason Game against the Denver Broncos1744 viewsTeddy poses with his father Rich Huttenhower at his first Steelers game!

From his email:

"P.S. Tell Ben that I'm also a Miami grad (1982) and I'm a pretty old dad (51 and my son is 6), so he's got plenty of time. We went to the same school together at different times."
