Trip to Canton: Steelers artifacts
Following up on yesterday's post on my trip to Canton, here are a bunch of photos of Steeler-related stuff in the Hall.
(Note: I took close up pictures of many of the bronze busts of the Steelers enshrinees, but owing to the dim lighting and the limited capabilities of my point & shoot, the photos came out poorly, so I've chosen not to display them.)
Excellent old-timey Bobby Layne helmet.
A decade of defense.
Mean Joe hangin' next to Sweetness.
Think this helmet has a nick or two on it?
The first of three Steelers WRs to win a Super Bowl MVP. Not bad for a 'running' team, eh?
Bradshaw's uniform from Super Bowl XIV
Jack Splat. A short hop from Kent State to Canton, with a decade of dominance in Pittsburgh in between.
No word if these particular shoes were the culprits in Lambert's turf toe.
Lynn Swann's game ball from a Monday night beatdown of San Francisco in 1978.
Hail to the Chief.
The PG in Canton ... go figure.
Canton wouldn't be complete without a Terrible Towel ...
... Or a Toalla Terrible.
Both teams shine, but only one cheated.
Cowher's Super Bowl XL Gatorade bath bucket is in the Hall, but will The Chin join it?
One of the newer artifacts on display ... will Santonio himself be enshrined someday? Time will tell, but his pal #86 has to be a lock. And maybe #7?
Picture doesn't do it justice.
Rod is God. The Steelers' most recent inductee.
It's hardly a stretch to say that the fella in the picture will be the next Steeler in the hall, unless a very-deserving Dirt Dawson beats him to it.
