Michael Keaton, a longtime fan of the Pittsburgh Steelers, surprised football fans when he took the stage at his hometown’s record-breaking NFL draft and announced a pick for the team.
The Oscar-nominated actor was born in Kennedy Township, Penn., and was raised around Pittsburgh before moving to Los Angeles and beginning his film and TV career. One of his first roles was on a 1975 episode of “Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood,” which filmed in Pittsburgh, and he also served as a full-time production assistant on the show. After Fred Rogers’ death in 2003, Keaton even hosted a PBS memorial, titled “Mister Rogers: America’s Favorite Neighbor,” and the show’s 50th anniversary special, “Mister Rogers: It’s You I Like,” in 2018.
