James Shimkus at Steelers Training Camp744 views"I am just writing to the site to show my picture of me and Ben, and to tell you how he is my favorite player of all time! Meeting Ben was amazing and to get a picture with him AND have him sign my jersey was absolutely amazing! A day doesn't go by that I don't think about it. I know it may seem crazy but that memory is the most amazing one ever! Here is me and Ben at training camp a couple years ago. See you at training camp Ben!"

Thank you James!

June 7, 2022 - Will the real #7 please stand upâ€¦750 viewsâ€œJust an amazing and well worth it day. To meet and walk down the fairway with Big Ben, who was just an amazing guy. Dream come true for these 3 Members of #SteelersNation.

This picture of the 3 of us in Benâ€™s jersey is a special one. It has my uncle, who is like my dad. His name is Doug Van Dusen. My father passed away of a heart attack when I was 13, and Doug stepped right in as a mentor and father figure. Sadly he has been diagnosed with stage 4 esophageal cancer that has spread to his liver. Long story short, we have been long time die Hard Steeler fans, and especially Big Ben. Doug even named his (now rainbow bridge dog) Ben after him. This was a dream come true to be able to meet Ben and the day was magical.
The other doppelgÃ¤nger of Ben, is my buddy Brian who is also my neighbour and long time Steeler (Ben) fan.Â

Being in Canada, I never thought we would have the chance to meet him and see him that close. The event was simply awesome and so entertaining. If you do speak to him, tell him I want his hat.

Once we found out Ben was coming, Doug and I hopped on tickets, then I told Brian about it and he was in. From that moment we had decided to wear his garb and be fitted with our Ben jerseys and terrible towels. Ben was so gracious in taking a photo with us and signing our stuff.

Lastly, I just want to thank him again for being so gracious and hope we put the Steelers Ottawa Chapter on the map in honouring him and his HOF career beside him. Thank you so much again and God Bless you all! Go Steelers and enjoy retirement Big Ben!!!â€ â€” Jamie Van Dusen.

January 6, 2017 - Thank you Ben!497 viewsâ€œOne year ago Big Ben and A.B. made my sons the happiest Steeler fans in the world.

Then, over this past summer I took my boys to Big Benâ€™s Football Camp. Caden got to do a â€˜Meet & Greetâ€™ with Ben and he loved it! I was also fortunate to have a field pass, and while on the field Ben came over to the tent I was in. I thanked him for giving my son the game ball and he said, â€˜Youâ€™re the browns fan!â€™ And I said yes. He also signed the football. My kids loved the camp and Chace caught a touchdown pass from Ben during a 7 on 7 drill. Weâ€™ll be going back to camp again this year.

I also took the boys to Antonio Brownâ€™s softball game. They had fun, and after the game we waited and waited for AB to come out of the locker room to see if he would sign our football. When he came out, he was in a hurry because he had to go to another event, but he did stop to sign the ball.

Just wanted to say thank you again and wish Big Ben, A.B., The Steelers Organization, and fans good luck in the playoffs. I hope you guys get number 7.â€ â€” CLEVELAND BROWNS fan Jared Clonch.
