Former Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Charlie Batch shared details of a recurring nighttime dispute with teammate Larry Foote over air conditioning during training camp. The two shared a small dorm room at Saint Vincent College for multiple seasons.
Batch described how his sinus issues clashed with Foote's preference for a cold room. He would adjust the thermostat after Foote fell asleep, only for Foote to wake up sweating and reset it.
The two won Super Bowl rings together in 2005 and 2008. Batch noted that their friendship remained strong despite the nightly thermostat fights.
Veteran players now receive private rooms at the facility following renovations. Steelers training camp is scheduled to begin in one month.
