"Arthur J. (Art) Rooney (1901-1988)(left) was born in Coultersville,
east of Pittsburgh. He is quoted as saying, "My mother's people were all
coal miners & my father's people were all steel workers," & while
growing up he lived with his family on the second floor of his father's
bar, Dan Rooney's saloon in Pittsburgh. The founder of the Pittsburgh
Steelers, Rooney funded the purchase of his football franchise in 1932
by a win on the horses...(Carnegie LIbrary of Pittsburgh.)"
