The Bus pulled into football immortality on Saturday night amid a sea of ''Terrible Towels'' that gave the Pro Football Hall of Fame a decidedly western Pennsylvania feel. Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jerome Bettis led the eight-man Pro Football Hall of Fame Class of 2015, the sixth-leading rusher in NFL history receiving an overwhelming ovation while being introduced prior to the official induction ceremonies. The capacity crowd at Tom Benson Stadium - most of them clad in some version of black-and-gold - roared as Bettis made his way down the red carpet, his enshrinement serving as the final destination for a player who embodied the blue-collar mentality of the city and the franchise he helped lead to a fifth Super Bowl title in 2006.
