Default Franco Harris

Sadly Franco Harris, HOF Pittsburgh Steelers RB passed away overnight. Not a Steelers fan per se', but did meet him once at a local Steelers fan club meeting back in the '90's. A really nice guy and very gracious. Sad, he didn't make it to see his jersey number retired this weekend. RIP

He played for Penn State as well. He was a good guy.

Always enjoyed watching him as a kid along with Walter Payton, Tony Dorsett, Earl Campbell, etc.
Seemed like it was always Steelers & Cowboys in the Super Bowl back then.
