Steelers Players & Legends Make Appearance on Draft Stage

The Draft in Pittsburgh wouldn't be complete without some Steelers legends and current players making on-stage appearances. Day 2 was filled with household names making appearances to announce picks or just come say hi - Cam Heyward even hosted the show throughout the night! Other appearances included T.J. Watt, Joey Porter Jr., Joey Porter Sr., and more.

Pittsburgh-Area Natives Bret Michaels and Wiz Khalifa Shine in Main Stage Concerts

Our Pittsburgh pride runs so deep, two nationally-acclaimed artists came back with Terrible Towels in hand to rock the stage at the Draft Theater. Bret Michaels and Wiz Khalifa performed solo sets and came together for a rendition of a classic song that paid homage to their roots: "Sweet Home Pennsylvania."

Steelers' 2026 First Round Pick Makes Surprise On-Stage Appearance

And that's not all that happened at the headlining concert! Bret Michaels and Wiz Khalifa brought out a surprise guest at the end of the show: Steelers 2026 first round draft pick Max Iheanacohr, who waved a Terrible Towel and got the crowd hyped right before the second round started.

Fans Pack Free Gateway Clipper Between North Shore and Point State Park

The Draft campus is split among two sections of the city, so transportation between them was made easier with a free Gateway Clipper ride! Day 2 was the first time fans got to experience the free ride across the Allegheny River, and they certainly took advantage of it!

Giant Pop-Tart Sacrifice at NOVA Place?

It doesn't sound real, but trust us on this one. Pop-Tarts pulled off their first-ever edible mascot sacrifice and the crowd went wild. Yes, we said edible. A giant Pop-Tart mascot went into a giant toaster and a giant *actually* edible Pop-Tart came out. Fans couldn't get enough of this larger-than-life event!
