Once again, it seems, Corey Rawson, Ohio, is now a place that exists neither on a physical plane of existence or anywhere on paper. The part-fictional hometown that Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger has been listing in the team’s media guide in recent years is being retired in favor of his actual hometown, Findlay.
It is all a part of a reconciliation that has taken place between the town and the native son over the course of the past seven years, which really began in earnest in the wake of the Milledgeville, GA nightclub incident that resulted in the quarter quarterback being accused of sexual misconduct, though charges were never filed.
