Happy Birthday to Jerome "The Bus" Bettis! Watching you bulldoze defenders was like seeing a runaway freight train in cleats—unstoppable, unforgettable, and oddly satisfying (unless you're the guy wearing the other team's jersey). Your legendary runs with the Steelers didn’t just earn yards; they made fans believe buses could fly.From that iconic Super Bowl XL victory back home in Detroit to your recent induction into football immortality at Canton, you've inspired countless athletes—and perhaps made bus travel cool again. So here's hoping your birthday is filled with as much excitement and joy as every linebacker felt relief on your retirement day.
