Celebrating Youth Football: The Steelers will celebrate their commitment to youth football and Play Football Month throughout tonight's game.
It will begin with kids who took part in the Steelers Youth Football Camps over the summer taking part in the Terrible Towel unfurl.
The Seneca-Iroquois High Schools Air Force Junior Reserve Officers Training Corps Joint Color Guard will be the Color Guard for the game.
Natalie Hardy, known in music by her stage name Talie, will sing the National Anthem. She is a junior at Canon-McMillan High School in Pittsburgh, and has a 4.0 GPA with AP and Honors classes. She won the Rising Star Competition held by Women Who Rock, and will be performing at their benefit concert at Stage AE on September 5.
The youth football co-captains will be Carter Woy and Charlie Faust.
Family day: Tonight's game against the Buccaneers is Steelers Family Day. The day kicks off at 4 p.m. and runs until 7 p.m. It includes appearances by mascots from area teams, face paintings, games, inflatables, emergency vehicle displays and more.
Twirl the Towel: The Terrible Towel Twirl will be led by two-time Super Bowl Champion Aaron Smith as part of the 20th Anniversary of Super Bowl XL this year. On Saturday, the team unveiled a new exhibit in the Hall of Honor Museum at Acrisure Stadium celebrating Super Bowl XL.
Just for kicks: The annual United Way of Southwestern Pennsylvania Kick Off event will take place at halftime of tonight's game.
Three kickers from area companies, including representatives from Dollar Bank, Jones Day and S&T Bank will compete in the contest.
The winning company will earn the honor of presenting a $10,000 check to the United Way to kick off their campaign. Acrisure will also present a matching contribution of $10,000 to the United Way.
Saluting a hero: The U.S. Steel Salute to Heroes recipient is United States Army Sgt. Jerry Wilson. SGT Wilson served his first tour in Ramadi Iraq where he excelled as a Raven Operator piloting over 100 missions. Despite operating under constant enemy fire, he was able to track and eliminate enemy forces, saving numerous American lives.
