Calling Hunter in Etna called the Cook & Joe Show on Monday with Bob Pompeani, says his sister’s water broke in the first half of the game, when her water broke.

Hunter says the baby came a week early but she waited until the end of the game to go to the hospital.

“She didn’t make a big deal of it . . . she just kinda walked off to the bathroom and didn’t even say anything other than her husband until after the game,” said Hunter.

Pompeani joked that the stress of the game likely induced birth with Hunter saying it probably did.

While she did go to the hospital after the game, no word yet on if she had a boy or a girl. The only thing we do know is that there’s another member of Steeler Nation.
