‘Twas The Night Before Christmas: Ageless Dick LeBeau Again Conjures Up Magic, Awe

Dick LeBeau did not leave Pittsburgh before spreading his unique brand of Christmas cheer.

While speaking at a luncheon honoring football and soccer teams that won Western Pennsylvania Interscholastic Athletic League (WPIAL) championships, LeBeau treated the hundreds in attendance to his inimitable recitation of ’Twas The Night Before Christmas.

A tradition he made famous during two coaching stints in Pittsburgh, it seemed oh-so-fitting for LeBeau to break it out again Tuesday — two days after getting recognized with the rest of the 2024 Steelers Hall of Honor inductees at Acrisure Stadium and two weeks before Christmas.

I was invited to the Dan McCann Coached Corner Luncheon.
