Some of your favorite Ben moments

Geez where to begin

A rookie knocking off undefeated teams back to back weeks
The promise to Bettis
The Tackle
The double finger pistol against the Broncos
The throw to San Antonio Holmes
The broken nose vs Baltimore
The 37-36 500 yard game against Green Bay

I could go on, but I've got to run to an orthodontist appt.....

 

Haven't seen it anywhere on here, but during the game last night, the announcers said that in 18 years, Ben has only played in two games where the Steelers were eliminated from playoff contention.

 

I have many, but probably My most memorable is seeing Him live.... His rookie year in Dallas. That old Dallas stadium was packed with Steelers fans. I remember them going on about no rookie would beat them. LoL

 

About five years ago, our local high school had a reserve football player injured on the field with a spinal injury. This lad has since graduated high school, but remains paralyzed. He faithfully does his rehab workouts and says he WILL walk again (in fact, to get his HS diploma, he walked across the stage with the help of an "exo-skeleton" contraptions). While he was in the hospital, he received a call from Ryan Shazier. They talked for a long, long time. This lad's face beamed. Then, Shazier told him that he was going to give the phone to someone else who wanted to talk with him.....it was Ben Roethlisberger. They talked for another long period, and Ben said there was another person who wanted to talk with him.....it was Coach Mike Tomlin. By this time everyone in the room was in tears. But this 15 year old young man had a huge ear-to-ear smile, his eyes lighted up the room! His dad left the room at the end of the phone call....went into the hallway and sobbed. He told everyone that he had been a Cleveland Browns fan his entire life, and was still a Browns' fan.....but today....the Pittsburgh Steelers touched his heart.

These are my Steelers. Thank you, Ben!

 

I was at his very first game. Baltimore - Ben drafted as a future thought, "let's go with Tommy another year or 2", blah blah blah. Tommy then gets his arm ripped off and the Legend begins. boy did Cowher ever LUCK into Ben!!!
the Immaculate Tackle is probably the most memorable for me. Beating the Colts as 12 pt dogs was amazing!

 

still recall being on a business trip that day when the news broke, stayed up till 11, 12a to see the docs come out of surgery with some sort of update

Crazy stuff for sure!!

 

Two that I was in attendance for.
Holmes SB touchdown pass
Christmas day game against Ravens. Ben to AB for the immaculate extension.

 

Iv'e been going to games pretty much since Ben was drafted.

I have been lucky enough to see some great moments. I saw him twice his rookie year. I saw him 3 times during their 2008 year, including Ravens AFCCG.

One that clearly stands out, during a game I was at, was when he hit Wallace in the endzone as a walk-off TD to beat the Packers.

 

Cleveland would have screwed him up anyways. Probably would have been one of the flops.
