Pittsburgh Pizza Chain Honors Late Former Steeler

PITTSBURGH, PA — Caliente Pizza & Draft House is commemorating the memory of former Steelers player and broadcaster Craig Wolfley by launching a permanent menu item that will benefit his favorite charitable cause.

Wolfley died of cancer in March. He was 66. Wolfley played with the Steelers in the 1980s and 1990s and was the team's color announcer at the time of his death.

Pittsburgh-based Caliente has launched The Wolfley 73, which consists of red sauce, a blend of mozzarella and provolone cheeses, pepperoni, meatballs, hot honey and parmesan. Caliente will donate 73 percent of all proceeds from this pizza each year to benefit the Light of Life Mission, an organization that works with Pittsburgh's homeless and recovery programs.

“Craig gave so much of himself to help others, especially through his work through Light of Life," Caliente owner Nick Bogacz said. "We wanted to create something lasting in his name, something that continues to give back, year after year.”

Caliente has locations in Bloomfield, Hampton, Mt. Lebanon, Aspinwall, Monroeville, Sewickley, Crafton and Ross.
