Below is the video of the Santa Claus dropping in today on the Mike Tomlin press conference. Santa was played by Bill DiFabio, a sports announcer from Washington, Pa., who traditionally dresses up as Santa for the pre-Christmas press gathering and often pokes fun at the Steelers coach for a few moments. Former coach Bill Cowher often went along with the gag. Tomlin evidently was none too happy as the Steelers have since said that would be the last time that takes place.
