The Pittsburgh Steelers’ safety Troy Polamalu and defensive end Ziggy Hood will be the headline guests of a weekend long sports card and memorabilia show at the Harrisburg Mall (off I-83 and the Paxtang Exit 45), Harrisburg, Pa., from noon to 2:30 p.m. and from 3:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m., respectively, on March 20, proceeds of which will benefit an alumni scholarship endowment fund for Harrisburg area students enrolled at Indiana University of Pennsylvania (IUP).
Philadelphia Eagles’ running back, former Pitt Panther and Bishop McDevitt High School standout LeSean McCoy, will make his appearance during the event on Sun., March 21, from 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m.
All-Pro safety Polamalu, a member of the Super Bowl XL and XLIII Champion Pittsburgh Steelers and a five-time Pro Bowler, has the distinction of being the only safety ever drafted by the Steelers in the first round. Symbolizing the face of the Steelers’ renowned defense, Polamalu’s hard-hitting style on the gridiron belies his off-the-field demeanor as a soft-spoken family man.
Autograph tickets are required and may be purchased in advance, costs for which are as follows:
Polamalu – $130 each on any flat item other than 16×20 or larger photos, $140 each on footballs, mini-helmets, and 16x20s, and $155 each on game jerseys or full size helmets. There is a $40 fee on any additional inscription or personalization by Polamalu beyond his signature and jersey number.
Hood and McCoy – $20 and $30, respectively, on any non-premium item and $27 and $40, respectively, on any helmet, football, 16×20, or game jersey.
