RIP Franco...another of my heroes gone too soon. I grew up in Pittsburgh and Franco Harris, Roberto Clemente, Willie Stargell and Bruno Samartino were my heroes as a kid and as an adult.
J.T.Thomas said it better than anyone else could. His friend was just a really decent human being and a help and inspiration to everyone around him. Rest in Peace, Franco Harris. The Greatness was obvious to everyone who saw you.
I have been sick since I heard the news Franco I loved what he did for the Steelers and Western Pa Christmas Eve 2022 The Raiders MUST go down And they must go down hard 🙏

I was a raider fan /my brother was a Steeler fan.i also rooted for the cowboys back in the day.pittsburgh was the only team the cowboys.could'nt beat.(Rip) Franco.
To be shocked is heavy but easier to carry in your heart knowing Franco Harris didn’t go through a difficult passing . In some way I’d like to think any time to honor the achievements he made in football history and years after that the love people have for him will all come together-During The time of year when it will all collide with many tears and meaningful bittersweet memories . We love you Franco 🖤💛🖤❄️💔
I remember when franco was nearing jim browns record and brown kept saying franco prolonged his career by stepping out of bounds all the time and proceeded to challenge him to a 40 yard dash race. when franco was asked is he was going to race brown franco replied we already did I stepped out of bound at the 39 just a really good guy rip franco I will always treasure the autograph you gave me.
@@waynejohanson1083 The Steelers organization is petty and They where mad that Franco did not accept that small contract back in 1984 and played his last season in Seattle!!
@@darrylturner4566 made him wait 50 years for what his jersey number never got worn again by a Steeler after him may not have been officially retired but it wasn’t used so idk why your so upset Your talking bad about an organization we just lost a person like come on dude your better then that your talking about a contract and he left because his agent wanted him to get a 2nd year guaranteed and he didn’t get that with Seattle either so clearly it doesn’t matter in the long hall now does it
I will never forget the immaculate reception. My husband, brother in law & my brother in laws new baby, who I was holding were together watching the game. My poor BIL couldn't decide what to look at....the TV screen or me holding his new baby screaming & jumping up & down cheering Franco on. I knew I wasn't going to drop her, but he wasn't quite sure. LOL....now you all know how old she is.
Disrespectful of you to say so, not everyone does because of a vaccination or known illness. Grow up and get over yourself. PS, it was likely a heart attack. RIP 🕯️
@@jennifer_m.8613 So he's disrespectful because he mentioned the vaccine and then you say heart attack like that's any better. Franco supposedly died in his sleep and God bless him he didn't have to suffer.

Franco Harris was one of my favorite players. I wore steelers pajamas as a kid growing up in Detroit.
Thank you Franco, Rest in Peace.
Although I was not a Steelers fan but loved Franco.
I didn't like the Steelers but I loved a lot of their players and he was my Favorite.
Franco was the running backs back I grew up in Detroit and he was my favorite steelers, before Swann mean Joe the whole squad deeply saddened

This man was a giant and should have had his #32 retired years ago.
Agreed.
@@waynejohanson1083 The Steelers organization is petty and They where mad that Franco did not accept that small contract back in 1984 and played his last season in Seattle!!
@@darrylturner4566 It was sad to see his career end that way, should have been a Steeler for life.
@@waynejohanson1083 The Steelers are petty and cheap!! Franco was Pittsburgh and they made
Him wait 50 years!!

That's a great memory. Where were you watching the game at? I remember listening to it I. The radio with my dad. It wasn't televised in Pittsburgh.
Lol great story!!
@@sal748 We lived in Oil City at the time. Then we moved to Warren PA where we got the BUFFALO games. Boy were we angry about that.
R.I.P #32😞🙏🙏🙏
LEGEND
Rest in peace
🎄🌫️🌨️ 🙆🏽♂️👨🏾🦳 I can't believe Mr. Franco's gone. What happened? 💛🌹
Likely a heart attack
🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Please let us know with all due respect to him; why he passed so suddenly 💛🖤
🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏
RIP
RIP #32.
❤️
Look at who's by you when your in that place called nowhere. How profound.
Love Franco Harris, a great player and man. I just wonder if he got the “jab”?
Just remember they ALL said it was safe and effective.
how bad are u reporting lol
Pissburgh....yea!
Died Suddenly….Hmmm.
Exactly...72 isn't really that old. The older I get, the younger it seems. Véry sad...Mr. Harris was a great role model.
Yes. I saw another interview and he seemed a bit weak. Was he in bad health? Maybe a sudden heart attack? Any thoughts?
"Died Suddenly" I sure hope it isnt vaccine related.
Disrespectful of you to say so, not everyone does because of a vaccination or known illness. Grow up and get over yourself.
PS, it was likely a heart attack. RIP 🕯️
@@jennifer_m.8613 So he's disrespectful because he mentioned the vaccine and then you say heart attack like that's any better. Franco supposedly died in his sleep and God bless him he didn't have to suffer.
