'The Boys"2520 viewsThat's Hercules on the left, and Zeus on the right...and this is their album!! If you have a photo of your Steelers pet you'd like to share, send it and they'll put it in their album!

Herc is a Bernese Mountain Dog and Zeus is a Rottweiler.
Zeus became a member of the family in 2004, the same year Ben was drafted.
"I wanted to get a dog my rookie year so he's as old as I am in the league," Ben told USA Today's Tom Spousta, in January of 2005. "Hopefully we'll be ending our careers about the same time. Fifteen years would be pretty good. That would be a nice life for me and the dog."
Hercules became a member of the family during the Roethlisberger family trip to Switzerland in 2006.
Ben told 'Swiss Roots' that while he will have many fond memories of his trip, "my favorite souvenir is my new puppy! He is awesome!".

And you thought your tattoo was cool!2637 viewsBen's number 1 fan wears number 7 - permanently!
A calf in Worth Township, Mercer County, was born with the No. 7 on its head.
Some call the calf the ultimate Ben Roethlisberger fan. The Steelers quarterback dons the No. 7 on game days, and of course, his nickname is Big Ben.
Keith Gadsby, owner of the calf, farms about 700 acres of land and milks 150 cows.
Keith is currently raising 20 female calves, including the "Big Ben" calf, to add to his herd.
