So some of you know, I bowl on a Tuesday night 9-pin no tap league. I live in Pennsylvania, so you can bet there is a good deal of steelers fan around. I met this man by accident actually. I was walking to the food/drink stand to buy myself a Pepsi. I was pretty thirsty. As I walked by this elderly fellow, I overheard him speaking to someone else about his grandson. A running back from Shippensburg University. Rushed for over 5,000 yards in his college career. Than I heard his grandsons name. John Kuhn. He is a second or third string running back for the Pittsburgh steelers. I am not exactly sure on what string he was or not, for I am not a real big steelers fan (though its my home state, so I show love). I started talking to the nice old man and started to learn a little bit about his grandson. He actually lives less than 30 minutes away from me. I just thought this was great, seeing as how I love football, and now I know a pro football players grandfather.
Just decided I would share that with you guys.

My father knows Jake Delhomme, quarterback for the Panthers.
Also, Domanick Williams (previously Domanick Davis) graduated from the high school I go to now. |
Anyway that's pretty cool. My older brother got to watch this year's Superbowl with Tiki Barber on a US Navy battleship. It was pretty interesting to see what he had to say about it, since my family consist of Giants Fans.
And my old school's quarterback from 2 years ago might make it to the pros, not sure but he's pretty good. Got a full scholarship to Penn State.
