Pittsburgh Steelers Hall of Famers & Legends speak at the 2021 Alumni Weekend Dinner Program

Описание: Hear from Troy Polamalu, Alan Faneca, Joe Greene, Mel Blount, Franco Harris, Rod Woodson, Dermontti Dawson, Dick Lebeau, James Harrison, Brett Keisel, and Santonio Holmes as they share memories during the 2021 Steelers Alumni Weekend Dinner. The program was hosted by Merril Hoge.

The Alumni Weekend Dinner, presented by U.S. Steel, UPMC and UPMC Health Plan, kicked off a weekend of honoring the Steelers Hall of Fame Class of 2020 and 2021 members, which includes Bill Cowher, Troy Polamalu, Donnie Shell, Alan Faneca and Bill Nunn.

"It's really nice to be back home here in Pittsburgh," said Polamalu. "And what more beautiful day than a nice 60 degree, rainy day. It's so perfect. It's a blessing to be back and we're so happy to be here.

"Being able to see the team this weekend, see them play, and especially to see Coach (Mike) Tomlin and my former college coach, (Seahawks) Coach (Pete) Carroll, what a blessing it is that I am able to experience both of them on the same weekend that we're coming back. It's awesome to see former teammates, former coaches, and most especially all of the Pittsburghers here, at the game or not at the game.

"It's just nice to be home."

It's an opportunity for them to gather as a group and share stories with each other, and then share stories with guests in attendance in the FedEx Great Hall at Heinz Field in a panel discussion moderated by Merril Hoge, where there were plenty of laughs and a night full of memories.

"You have to cherish these moments because we're not in the same locker room trading stories, laughing every day anymore," said Faneca. "When we do get back together, and we have these moments, you have to embrace them and cherish them and make the most out of them. You drain every last second out of them, spending time with each other and just enjoying it."

Faneca and Polamalu were able to attend the dinner, while Cowher and Shell will join the group on Sunday night for the Steelers-Seahawks game, where they will receive their Hall of Fame Ring of Excellence at halftime. The Nunn family will also be honored then.
