In our Community Conversation with Zach he talked about that and a lot more; including his love for his Jewish Zeta Beta Tau Fraternity Brothers (USC ZBT), Pamela's Diner pancakes and a very important message for Primanti Bros.Here’s Rabbi Ron Symons and JCC Board Chair, Billy Goodman’s conversation with Zach Banner. #CFLKConnectingCommunities Pittsburgh Steelers NFL University of Southern California B3 Foundation JCC Pittsburgh Bill Peduto Jewish Community Centers of North America (JCCs) Ben Roethlisberger – BigBen7.com Ron Symons William Goodman
