Ben Luginbuhl once beat Ben Roethlisberger in a game of horse
In a post-Christmas cruise around Bluffton several years ago with Ben Luginbuhl and Fred Steiner Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger’s name came up.
Here’s the conversation between Ben and Fred:
Just then we turned from Kibler on to Main and saw Jon Wietholder turn from Main to Kibler. Must be headed for Sunset. Seeing Jon reminded Ben that he was once on a Bluffton Little League baseball team with Ben Roethlisberger. Jon's dad, Brad, was the coach. "I beat Ben (Roethlisberger) in horse," says Ben-at-the-wheel.
