Just because Ben Roethlisberger has decided to retire, that doesn't mean that he's going to be forgotten about in Pittsburgh. He's a Steelers legend and that will never change.

This week, Big Ben was at a Penguins game and he had the honors of dropping the opening puck. It was great to see and he received quite the ovation.

Roethlisberger is now enjoying retirement. There was an outside chance he'd be back for next season, but the writing was on the wall for him. It was his time to hang up his cleats, but the love and respect people have for him will always be intact.
