Whooooooooooooo!!!!!!!! XL here I come!!

[friesianrider]

I JUST GOT TWO SUPER BOWL TICKETS!!!!! My richer-than-God uncle just called and asked if I wanted his and his wife's tickets (they didn't care to go since the Eagles weren't playing)...DO I WANNA GO!? Are you friggin' kidding me!?!?!?

:bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

Oh boy, what am I gonna wear so I catch Big Ben's eye? ;)

[WilliamPitt]

1. Wear a hat with some antlers

He always looks like he just got home from deer hunting. :)

Have fun.

[friesianrider]

6. So it won't clash with my leather bustier that lifts and seperates?

I'm thinking you and Burgher are on to something here...

[timber84]

2. You need some gear for the game?

shirts towels ect...? Fries get a gret big sign that says something good to get on the air ABC is televising so so something like:

A-Another
B-ben
C-completion,cheerleader

whatever you get the idea but put a great big DU sticker on it!!!!!

[friesianrider]

5. Oh wow...that is a great idea!

I'll definitely make a sign and I can put that extra DU bumper sticker to use!

[BurgherHoldtheLies]

3. MAJOR jealousy here!

An indoor stadium increases your options on clothing. (from that credit card ad) "A leather bustier that lifts and separates" might do the trick.

Represent Pennsylvania well and cheer for the Steelers.

[timber84]

4. Fries

say a prayer. my sister's husband is a vp for soda company working on getting myself some. I could only hope, but hey it'll be fun to watch the game at home too, but not as much.

[timber84]

8. my prayer came through but there is no place to stay

anyone know of a hotel that's not booked?

[JVS]

10. Stay in Ann Arbor and drive in

[Lefty48197]

11. Second.

It's about a 50 minute drive from AA to downtown Detroit.

[friesianrider]

7. Oh you know I will be cheering for the Steelers!

Nothing against Washington but when an obnoxious Eagles fan is born, we are required to take an oath that should our beloved Birds not make the playoffs, we immediately convert to Pittsburgh fans :)

[Longhorn]

9. I got to go to the Super Bowl once.

Minnesota versus Miami at Rice Stadium in Houston in 1974. Cold, no big halftime show, and I was rooting for Minnesota just because the Miami fans were so obnoxious (something about white towels?)

Not exactly on the same scale of today's Super Bowls. ;)

Have fun!

[Awsi Dooger]

13. White hankies

Damn, I miss those things. The Orange Bowl was nothing but waving white in those years.

I attended only one also: Jets/Colts when I was a kid.

[opiate69]

12. Wear an EMT uniform..

by the time Rocky Bernard, Grant Wistrom and Lofa Tatupu get done with worthlessburger, he's gonna need an EMT.

[fishwax]

14. SWEET!

Have fun! :bounce:

[friesianrider]

18. Thanks, I hope to!

Except for the plane trip (I hate to fly!) it should be a blast :)

[1gobluedem]

15. A 'Fro wig

Because, here in SE Michigan, Big Ben refers to Big Ben Wallace of the Pistons. The 34-5 Pistons. :-)

[bigwillq]

16. WOO HOO!

Congrats! Enjoy the game! :toast: :hi:

[friesianrider]

19. Thanks bunches!

I'm going to make a sign and put the DU bumper sticker on it - wouldn't it be fun if I got my crazy ass on TV? :)

[Penndems]

17. Fries, I'm not trying to break your heart here, but . . .

it seems as if every young woman in America (let alone Pittsburgh) is vying for Big Ben's affections. ;)

I'm happily married and old enough to be Ben's mom, so no danger here, LOL! (BTW, the hottest-selling tee shirt on his website was the one with the words "Mrs. Roethlisberger".)

Check out this question from Mike Wilbon's Monday afternoon chat on washingtonpost.com:

D.C. Suburbs : Ben Roethlisberger is tall, hot, and my age. Is he dating/married?

Michael Wilbon: Married? No. What, you want me to fix you up with him?

Or, some of the comments on his blog:

"Ben-hey stud! I just wanted to say congrats to you and the team for making it to the Super Bowl! Yinz deserve it 100%!I'm such a die-hard Steeler fan! I keep getting in trouble @my work (Norwin Hills SUBWAY!) by my boss because I keep wearing my Big Ben pin on my uniform...haha oh well-it's so worth it! I proudly display my love for you and the team! :) I joke around with my friends and tell them that I'm gonna marry the best QB in the NFL..YOU! haha I love you Ben! Keep up the good work! PITTSBURGH'S GOIN TO THE SUPERBOWL! HERE WE GO! I think I would die of a heart attack if you actually responded back to me...it would make my LIFE! You're so amazingly talented and not to mention HOTT!! haha GO STEELERS!"

********************************************************************
"We don't talk football in the bedroom, baby."

(Note from Penndems: WHOA! :scared: :spray: :wow:)

********************************************************************
"Alright Ben, YES! Please stop sending the flowers and cards--I will marry you! OK,I have publically accepted. Can we get on with winning the Super Bowl now!?"

[friesianrider]

20. Uh, whoa...!

Did he really write that about football in the bedroom? :wow: is right!

[Penndems]

21. Big Ben didn't write that, LOL

One of his female admirers posted that on his blog (as are the other two comments towards the bottom of my post).

WHOA! ;)













(on edit: additional text)

[friesianrider]

22. Haha, I was starting to get worried!

That was funny - and, you know I had to go buy a Mrs. Roethlisberger shirt after you mentioned that, right? :)

[Penndems]

23. Where in the world did you find one?

His website said they were completely sold out. It looks like a cute tee!

[friesianrider]

25. I got one from Cafe Press...it's cute!

It's a pale pink tee...I don't know what the originals look like, but I liked the pink. I figured I had to have one just so Ben, uh...recognizes me :)

[Penndems]

26. Cafe Press - I didn't even think of them

Good on ya, Fries! :applause: It IS a cute tee shirt, and Ben's a nice-looking guy. :)

Post once you get to Detroit, if you get a chance. You and Timber have fun!

[datadiva]

24. I am green eyed with jealousy

The only time I have ever gotten to see my Steelers play was about 9 or 10 years ago, they played the Oakland Raiders and I took my son to see them play. He's a Raiders fan, (still) don't know how. The Steelers won. Have a great time! :toast: :applause:
