- 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.

The Steelers are a family business. And that family includes Steeler Nation. These guys prove that even after you retire, you don't quit being a cherished part of the family.
Best franchise in all of sports!
I cried
I did also. This got me very emotional with how much I love the organization because of the Rooney's and then many of the players and the very few coaches they've had
So many legends in one place!
Legendary 🖤💛🖤💛. 😭😭😭😭😭!
🖤💛🖤💛
My favorite team ever and I had everyone who I loved around me at the time. Steelers forever in my heart.
Steelers is best team setting history for years and many more to come
Congrats Art Rooney Sr, the Franchise You started all those years ago has become the Greatest Footbal Team Ever! May You continue to Rest In Peace & watch over Steeler Nation & the City of Pittsburgh!
That was great! Love the story about Troy changing the assignments on the fly!
These legends this is who we are there can never be enough said about the greatest coach next to coach Knoll and that is coach Cowher i can say coach Cowher instilled the meaning of winning as a team we became steeler nation with coach cowher
STILLER NATION !!!
Love it!
Blessed to have seen all these dudes play..47 years and counting, which leads me to believe Ernie Stautner must have been a complete bad ass as well. Here we go!!
For me, 50 years when Franco was drafted and still counting. I can say I was with them when they were losers (only for 2 years).
I love Troy Polamalu.
#58 will always be the man to me !! Go Steelers.. No disrespect to Rocky.. Mel… or Donnie
Congratulations and I enjoyed every minute of this. There was some really hilarious parts in this recording that still have me laughing. Great stuff
My team of the 70s the great Pittsburgh Steelers
VERY INTENSE SALUTE .. 💯💪🏾❤👍🏾
😀
Made me water
Just imagine what if we had these apps on our house phone with the 3 foot cord and what a lot of the things that were being said about these players back in the day, well let’s be honest these were some of the players with issues and if it was all out in the news as it is today I would be willing to bet that they would be told to leave maybe even dropping them off at the airport!!
Why can't Russell Wilson use the phone anymore? Because he can't find a receiver
He can come to Pittsburgh
I'ii bet you waited a LOOOONG time to unleash that gem, Mia. 🤦🏿♂️
James stoned asf 🤣
🤢🤮not a fan but still cool
Mike webster...what can I say but great with a tragic ending. I loved watching him play but Dawson was the reason I wanted to play center. His autographed jersey I have is a prized possession.
