While all the eyes were on a potential announcement of Aaron Rodgers to Big Night Aht, the fans of black and gold were treated to something much softer – a surprise appearance of the legendary Super Bowl champion, old, old, old Pittsburgh Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger.
Roethlisberger, who spent 18 years in Pittsburgh, was joined on stage by 2024, recruit of the year of the NL and the pirate launcher Paul Skenes, as well as the legends of the Penguins Sidney Crosby, Kris Letang and Evgeni Malkin.

Roethlisberger was responsible for launching one of the three football balls through a “10 by 10 hoop” suspended from the ceiling, each launch finished adding $ 1 million to a pot that would be brought home by a random fan. Skenes and Crosby were loaded with the other two throws.
Skenes launched the match and missed its first attempt – resulting in a second launch with the price reduction by half to $ 500,000.
Crosby then intensified and absolutely nailed his throw – with $ 1 million in the pot, with songs of “MVP” that sounds crowds to Big Night Aht.
Roethlisberger tried the final throw – and he made things easy, adding another million dollars to the Prize Pool and bringing the total to $ 2 million.
