Pittsburgh Steelers @ Penn State Fayette Campus

It was a great Thursday night in Fayette County. The World Champion Pittsburgh Steelers basketball team played some Penn State guys.

Of course, the score ended in a tie 72-72.

There was 6 Steelers who came to play: Louis Lipps (who must be close to 50 by now), Deshea Townsend, Nate Washington, Tyrone Carter, and I am drawing a blank about who the other guys were.

Of course, everyone was disappointed that Big Ben Roethlisberger wasn't there, but that didn't stop the adults from almost stampeding the children to get autographs.

There was an announcement made that the first 3 minutes of the autograph session would be for kids under 10.

I was naive enough to let my 10 and 7 year olds kids to go by their selves to get their jerseys and terrible towels signed.

Of course, there were more adults than children in line and the adults were actually pushing and shoving children out of their way.

It was disgraceful, to say the least, but I think everyone had a good time watching the game.

I know my family had a good time, even with the autograph fiasco.

Until Next Time...Have A Great Day!!!
