Najee Harris is unleashing his inner Yinzer, showing up at tonight’s playoff game between the Pittsburgh Penguins and New York Islanders. Earlier Monday, Harris tweeted he would attend tonight’s game and true to his word, he – along with third round pick Kendrick Green – was there.
Harris is in his first hockey town after growing up in the Bay Area and playing college ball at Alabama. And he’s getting a taste of what Pittsburgh’s sports are all about, rocking the Pens’ jersey/Terrible Towel/Pirates’ hat, the triple word score of Pittsburgh apparel. In other words, he’s everyone’s uncle who also just happens to be the Steelers’ latest first-round pick.
