The Western Pennsylvania Sports Museum – part of the Senator John Heinz History Center’s family of museums – will host an official launch for Hall of Famer Dick LeBeau’s new book, “Legendary: The 2008 Pittsburgh Steelers Defense, the Zone Blitz, and My Six Decades in the NFL” on Sunday, July 14 from 2-3:30 p.m.

Presented by the Western Pennsylvania Sports Museum and Triumph Books, this special program will feature an engaging discussion with LeBeau and veteran Steelers scribes Scott Brown and George Von Benko, along with commentary from former Steelers players including Brett Keisel, Chris Hoke, Ike Taylor, Deshea Townsend, and more.

Attendees will listen to recollections from LeBeau and the iconic Steelers defensive players who helped bring his groundbreaking vision to life.

In their new book “Legendary,” LeBeau, Brown, and Von Benko revisit that dominant 2008 defensive unit and take a deep dive into each game of the 2007-2008 championship season, with added perspective of how the “Blitzburgh” defense stacks up against other great contemporary defenses.

LeBeau also shares revelations about the 2008 Steelers and stories from his nearly 60 years in the NFL as both a star player and groundbreaking coach whose career spanned decades of football innovation.

Following the program, LeBeau will sign copies of his book for attendees. The book is currently available to pre-order with event registration and will also be for sale at the program. Former Steelers players will not be signing autographs, per History Center policy.

The program is $20 for non-members and $10 for History Center members. Admission to the program also includes full access to the Heinz History Center and Western Pennsylvania Sports Museum.
