JuJu Smith-Schuster Cements Himself as Pittsburgh Icon by Handing Out Heinz Ketchup at Kennywood
By Mark Powell
As if Pittsburgh Steelers fans needed another reason to like wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster. In the wake of the Antonio Brown drama, JuJu is the exact hero Yinzers need in this difficult time.
In perhaps the most Pittsburgh drama of all-time, the local theme park Kennywood has received city-wide attention for their use of Hunts' ketchup, rather than Heinz. If you couldn't tell by the Steelers' stadium name, Heinz is local to Pittsburgh.
?#PITTSBURGH DOESN'T DESERVE JUJU!?The day after going to a local high school prom, @TeamJuJu helped guests at @Kenny_Kangaroo by serving up @HeinzKetchup_US https://t.co/K543Q5nfsF

Enter Smith-Schuster to solve this issue once and for all and get some good press at the same time. Over the weekend the 22-year-old wideout was seen handing out Heinz to any Kennywood patrons who were just as fed up as he was about the theme park cutting corners on their condiments.
I wish more professional athletes were positive role models like @TeamJuJu! Don’t ever change!!! https://t.co/de7W0LXwXk via @WPXI

Smith-Schuster enters the season as the Steelers primary wideout hoping to build upon a Pro Bowl campaign. If this is any indication, he's got plenty of good JuJu in the steel city.
