Steelers Hall of Fame C Dermontti Dawson will represent the organization tonight at Rockefeller Center in New York as part of the pregame festivities of the NFL Kickoff Show starting at 7:30 p.m. ET Wednesday.
Each team is sending an NFL alumnus representing each team to be on hand, joining each team's winner of the NFL Fan Flag Challenge to unveil their design.
Fortunately, Behind The Steel Curtain has the design already, which was posted by the Steelers' winner (member "Ozborn") last week.
While clearly no one will touch the sheer awesomeness of Ozborn's design (they can't have six stars representing six Super Bowl championships), I'm sure the other flags will be nice. Hopefully we can get Ozborn back here for an interview after the game to share the experience.
