Carlyse's Benroom...er, bedroom!712 views"My daughter is 13 and her name is Carlyse Coleman! She has been a fan of Ben since his 1st season. After Christmas in 2004, she said to me that Santa didn't bring me the best present ever! When I asked what that was, she said a Ben Roethlisberger jersey! The next morning I went out with her older brother and got her the 1st of many!!! She's also been to Bens football camp the past 2 yrs! She's does love her quarterback!!" -- Christine Petroci

February 9, 2013 - Miami University Hall of Fame Induction Weekend674 viewsBen poses with Cary Feltman, Justin Shigley, and Ian Sterner outside after the Induction Dinner in Oxford, OH.
Cary and his friends attended the Dinner and he had this to share about Ben's speech during the evening:
"It was very respectful of Coach 'Hep' and about how he was the reason he went to Miami University. [Talked] about the players that paved the way for him and the players that were to follow. He cracked some jokes about taking so long to graduate. Also before he stood up to do his speech, the lady that was announcing the players and giving a brief of their accomplishments before they would come up accidentally called him Brian Roethlisberger. So when he walked up to the podium he says, 'Sorry, Brian couldn't make it tonight, so I'm filling in for him.' He had the room laughing pretty good." -- Cary
*Thank you so much Cary!!

Training Camp - July 31, 20101465 viewsFrom Cassie Wellen, who attended training camp with her husband on July 31st:
Erin, I attended training camp on the 31st and thought I would share this story with fellow fans.
I am a member of the Steelers Fan Club and was on the field for the first practice wearing a Ben jersey. My husband sat behind the fencing with his Miami Redhawks jersey on and was interviewed by the Associated Press. His statements actually appeared on NFL.com.
Anyway, after practice Ben held his press conference and then went to the left side of the bleachers to sign autographs, we were on the other side of the complex. An older security guard and a younger female security guard noticed our jerseys and felt bad because he was not coming to where we were located. They took us through the crowds of people to the top of the campus to wait for Ben to get out of the cart.
Since he gave his shoes away (above) he did not come to where we were located, but the young female guard stayed with us and took us into the bookstore. She took both our jerseys and a hat into the locker room and came back out with them autographed. We watched her take them into the locker room and I saw Ben hand them back to her when the door opened.
I thought this was the best thing ever. Although we did not personally meet him, he was nice enough to sign the jerseys after he was already done for the day.
I just thought I would share this story with you and hopefully many people will realize he is making the appropriate steps to regain his fan base. I was never not a fan.
I am a disabled vet and the first time I saw Ben play I was deployed to Iraq. So that Christmas I received a "Ben" jersey for Christmas from home. This past year I wrote Ben and told him my story, and on Christmas Eve I received two of his special cards. That was the best present ever.
I just hope that one day I have the pleasure of meeting him and saying thank you for these wonderful experiences.
*Cassie, thank you so much for sharing your story!

Adding the crowning touch!488 viewsChad Pointer was married in that jersey back on June 29, 2012! He shared his photos with us in March of this year. His wish was to go to training camp and get Ben to sign it...and it happened, on the first day that camp was open to the fans!
"Ben in my book is second to NONE from his Ironman play on the field to his K9 work off the field", Chad said in March. "We live in Evansville Indiana and love our Steelers and the greatest QB ever!!! Our first date was to the Tampa Bay vs Steelers game 3 yrs ago, she was a TB fan, has been a Steelers fan every since. We were married in West Palm Beach, Florida, the same place I proposed a year before. We then had our reception back home in Indiana - even entered the room to 'Renegade' playing."
