December 18, 2007 - The Hines Ward Show1646 viewsFrom the article in KDKA: There was a special guest at Tuesday's taping of the PNC Hines Ward Show.
But we aren't just talking about Ben Roethlisberger.
It was one of Big Ben's biggest fans: an 8 year old boy with a devastating illness who met his idol.
But Roethlisberger says the inspiration goes both ways.
To say it was an opportunity of a lifetime is an understatement for Joseph DeBacco, who was only given a 10 to 15 percent chance to live, when he found out he would be meeting his idol Ben.
"I want to have him sign my jersey and I feel awesome," said 8 year-old cancer patient Joseph DeBacco.
Joseph was all smiles anticipating his face-to-face meeting with Ben.
Ben says kids like Joseph are his inspiration as well.
"You sit there and think about how sore am I today and complain about practice," said Roethlisberger. "He's a hero to me."

September, 2014 - Salute to Steeler Nation Mexico558 viewsSteelers Family TapatÃos
"Let me tell you a little about the picture and about the group we've been trying to bring together.
It was about a year ago, that Alberto Gutiérrez (@chefosomo67) and me brought the idea from Mexico City of having a Steelers fan group, so we looked for people wearing black and gold jerseys and having Steelers stickers on their cars. He opened a Facebook page under the name of "Steelers Family TapatÃos" to get as many people as possible to join together and enjoy the games as a family.
It hasn't been fast, but we've made lots of friends, we really get along with each other, and it has helped us to know people with interesting jobs and businesses to share. And in this slow but safe growing, we've get preference and discounts in bars and restaurants around the city. One time, we had preference over a Chivas (a local soccer team) game in the place, that's a great achievement considering the quantity of people who likes that team here." -- Diego Delgadillo

The Smith Family strikes a pose in their #7's511 views"My sons and I are huge big Ben/Steelers fans. My son Devlin (10 years old now) and I were at Ben's very first appearance playing as a NFL football player in Baltimore on September 19, 2004. That day is very special to us because it just happened to be Devlin's first b-day. So to celebrate we decided to go to a game of our favorite football team the Pittsburgh Steelers. Little did we know that game would became a part of history. We were there to see Bens very first TD with our arms thrown up in the air just like Ben. We ALWAYS do a Steelers Ben Jersey pic every time we get our pics taken. Now at ten, Devlin follows what the TV says and is upset that they are talking about Ben going elsewhere. He pays attention to everything down to what time of possession for the Steelers during each game. No matter what happens in our hearts Ben will always be a Steeler . We all love the whole Roethlisberger clan. Congrats on the member on the way. We all are praying that it is healthy and you are all happy, also we all think Jr is the cutest little guy. Not that he needs it but good luck with the rest of the season lets get you guys another ring!" -- 3 very BIG Big Ben fans, Devlin, Deacon & Aubrey
