A few Steelers players, including DeAngelo Williams and Martavis Bryant, made an appearance at the Dick's Sporting Goods in McCandless.

The first 225 people lined up for the event were guaranteed autographs, and some passionate fans even slept outside the store to guarantee they'd be among the first in line.
"We live in Ohio, it's about a 3 and a half hour drive," fan Brandon Reisinger said, "and we got out here around 1 a.m. Set up a tent right outside, plugged in a heater."
