    My childhood idol😪. Followed him in college, big Penn state fan. Became a steelers fan when he was drafted. I'm from NYC, my favorite sports team. Went to Latrobe in 1975, as a 12yr old, because I wrote a paper, the history of the Pittsburgh steelers. I'm sad this morning. Rest in peace Franco🙏🏾.

    I am devastated Franco Harris meant so much to me As a man of color seeing him play For Penn state and then the Pittsburgh Steelers was Paramount for myself. Being a half breed was TOUGH during that Time period ( as it is to this day) people bashing you from the white and the black side(those of us of the born of the B&W ilk )pressuring us for a loyalty to a race or way of being. Franco transcended all of the B.s.that was Perpetrated throughout his young years with a goal of being the best person and Football Player He could be. He Achieved that and so Much more. REST EAZY #32 You Have Done So Much More For Your Family's First And Foremost Your Born Family and Then Penn State Then The Pittsburgh Steelers Nation Family......We'll Miss You Greatly 😔 And Rejoice in The Memories of Your Greatness On The Field of Play And Your Contribution to the fabric of The MANY People and Organizations whom You Have Contributid toThroughout Your Life ....

    The immaculate reception! Froze in time & in my mind! Never forget that hit from Jack Tatum that caused the may lay & then the shoe string reception by Franco, Like Mad Dog said all those Legends on Both sides of the field, Not enough Superlatives to Acknowledge them,

    5:03 you can also add Jack Lambert & Mike Webster from that same draft class. Steelers 1974 draft class the greatest by a franchise bar none.

      Can't forget they also got Donnie Shell as a free agent rookie that year too 5 hall of famers from 1 draft yr might never be topped.

    This SUCKS! I'm 43, my grandpa taped every single game in the 70s on VHS. We watch them together in the late eighties and I can't tell you how many memories I have of my grandfather just proudly showing me what Steelers football was about. This sucks

    As am watching this, Tower of Power's "So Very Hard To Go" is playing on the radio. Song title speaks Volumes! So Very hard to hear the news that Steelers #32 has passed. Now he, Madden, Snake, Fats, Mad Dog & others can discuss, ad eterneum(?) about what Really happened!-lol. Gentlemen, you will live on in NFL annals! Steeler Nation Forever!

    The Immaculate Reception sparked the Steeler dynasty. The Raiders were on the losing end of two historic controversial plays that launched two different teams into their dynasties. The first was The Immaculate Reception and the second was The Brady Tuck Rule fumble. Must be Raider karma.

    My heart is breaking. I am in shock. Deep down I know it was God's game plan. However, there will be an "Immaculate Reception" again - in Heaven. He will live forever in the hearts and minds of football fans - especially in Pittsburgh.
