Pittsburgh Steelers 2-time Super Bowl champion Ben Roethlisberger has allegedly been connected to two separate, yet very similar, lawsuits. The most recent, taking place in 2008, states "a former restaurant worker claims he was fired because he had demanded to see identification for a young-looking woman at Ben Roethlisberger's table where the NFL quarterback and his friends were drinking." Apparently doing your job and asking to see id of questionable alcohol consumers is uncalled for and worthy of firing.
I'm a fan of the Pittsburgh Steelers and Big Ben especially. So it came as a surprise to me to find this article and to see the celebrity status Roethlisberger was being put up to. We all know he's a superstar, but to fire someone that made Big Ben's lady friend upset seems a bit much to me. Fox News reported the owner of the restaurant was a big fan and friend of Roethlisberger and told his employees to go out of their way to apease the quarterback.
