August 1, 2010739 viewsFrom Ben's chat with the media on the first day of camp:
Q: Other than all of the questions, did it feel like a pretty normal day at camp?
Ben: “It did, surprisingly enough. Once we started walking down the stands and hearing them cheer and giving them high fives, we got on the field and I kind of got lost in just being out here at camp and being at St. Vincent’s. That’s what we said getting here, everything that has happened we’ve put behind us because it’s time for football now. That’s what it’s about, is getting out here and winning championships.â€
Q: Were there butterflies?
Ben: “Oh absolutely. There always are. It’s the first say of camp you always have a little bit. There was a little bit more for me.â€
Q: Did they pretty much settle down by the time you get on the field because of the reception you got from fans?
Ben: “Yeah, they did. During stretching I felt pretty good.â€
Q: Did you dread coming out to practice in the afternoon?
Ben: “Not dread it. I was nervous. Nervous and scared and anxious. A lot of emotions.â€
Q: How do you separate football from your personal life? Is that difficult?
Ben: “I feel pretty good about being able to compartmentalize. It makes you human when you’re scared. It’s a challenge and there’s going to be more challenges ahead of us but football is kind of my escape, my getaway.â€
Q: How has this offseason changed you?
Ben: “I feel it’s humbled me and made me a better person. All of the things that have happened are all behind us now. Now it’s all about moving forward and football and focusing on that.â€
Q: Did you chose to walk out to practice with Hines or was that coincidental?
Ben: “I was getting ready to walk out and Hines was there and he said, ‘Hold on, let’s go out together.’ â€
Q: Did that help?
Ben: “Yeah, it was nice.â€

"Good morning...from Iraq...I'm a US Army soldier, getting ready to finish out my tour in Iraq and was just wondering if you would like to pass on to Ben (and the rest of the team) some of the attached photos of me and my teammates during our travels through the country with my Terrible Towel.
"I've been a Steeler fan since I was a kid and never thought I'd get to do the things I've been doing for the Army and for our country...I just wanted to share these with you all and hope you enjoy them...One thing I've been able to do is follow the Steelers during this deployment and I'm looking forward to getting home and catching the last couple of the season from my home (in Virginia) with my family. Take care and thanks!"

June 7, 2022 - Will the real #7 please stand up…779 views“Just 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 Ben’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 doppelgänger 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!!!†— Jamie Van Dusen.
