Tapping into her blue collar roots - and with a direct nod to her husband's love of Jim Beam - a female fan conceived of what NFL team's mascot prior to the 2007 season?

A woman named Diane Roles from Pennsylvania earned the right to name the Steelers' mascot in 2007 when she came up with Steely McBeam. The name had pretty obvious meanings, representing the city's steel industry and the Rooney family's Irish roots. The "beam" part had a double meaning, representing both the steel beams and her husband's love for Jim Beam.
