Spending time at Dad's alma mater!548 viewsBig Ben and his family took a trip to Georgia Tech to show Benjamin Jr. where his grandpa Ken played his college ball. While they were there, Ben stopped to pose with two of GT's best football players, Corey Dennis and Sean Tobin.

Sean sent the photo to his aunt, Edy Castronovo (whose family is part of Steeler Nation New Jersey), who said that not only was Sean very excited to meet Ben, but he also said it was an "incredible privilege to meet one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time."

Sean also wanted to add:

"It was great to meet Ben, he's a stand up guy. Was really fun guy to be around and spoke to a couple of us for quite some time, he threw some motivation at us and was telling us to enjoy the offseason, take advantage of it cause your opponent is getting better. Thanks again Ben!"

Just a few of the tweets about Ben's visit to Georgia Tech:

@steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger dropped by yesterday. His dad Ken was backup QB & pitcher at #GaTech in mid-70's -- Georgia Tech Sports @GTAthletics

Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger just visited to our football offices with his family. Really nice guy. Down to earth. Father is a GT alum. -- Ryan Bamford @GTbammer24 (Ryan is a Senior Associate AD at Georgia Tech)

Ben Roethlisberger came by GT today. Dude is huge in person, no wonder why defenders struggle to get him down! -- Brandon Oliver @B_Oliver82

Gift for Mom!560 viewsDear Erin,

I just thought I'd share the wonderful surprise my kids gave me today!

My 5 year old daughter Guinevere knows how much I love the Steelers, especially Ben, and she knows how heartbroken I was that they missed the playoffs. So while I was at work she drew this picture for me, based on a plush doll that we have. My 8 year old son James helped her with the writing. I'm sure you'll agree that the resemblance is uncanny!!

Thanks for all you do,

Heather Dadey

November, 2013: A Thanksgiving Welcome Home - Steelers Style1020 viewsWeâ€™ve been keeping up with Steven since he shared his photo and message for Ben in September of 2013, when he was deployed (you can see it here in this album). This past weekend he sent in a new photo â€“ of the Welcome Home he was greeted with upon his return to the U.S. last week:

â€œI got back from a deployment and surprised my family for Thanksgiving. Not only that, but my brother Mike, his wife Briseida, and their son Maximiliano (who knew I was coming home), welcomed my return with their Steelers jerseys and gear on, ready to support me and our Steelers! They also surprised me with a new Big Ben jersey and a Terrible Towel! GO BIG BEN! GO STEELERS!â€ â€“ Steven

Steven only has a few days to enjoy with his family before reporting to his duty station, but said it was â€œamazing to be backâ€.

Steven, we wish you all the best! Stay safe and God bless!
