Wanna party with Jeff Reed?


Ben Schmitt of the Tribune-Review reports the former Pittsburgh Steelers kicker known for his game-winning field goals and assault of a Sheetz paper towel dispenser is hosting a playoff party Saturday night at Wolfie's bar in Indiana.

"Come check me out...I'll be there as advertised...it's playoff time!" Reed tweeted.

Reed was the NFL's most accurate kicker (88.5 percent conversion rate) from 2007-09 before his career fizzled.

He became the target of ridicule in Western Pennsylvania after being charged with disorderly conduct and criminal mischief in connection with damage to a paper towel dispenser in a convenience store bathroom on Feb. 14, 2009 — just two weeks after the Steelers won Super Bowl XLIII. He paid a fine and restitution.

There were reports that he was thrown out of the NFL Hall of Fame game in Canton, Ohio in 2015. Reed claimed that he left the game on his own after a fan tried to pick a fight with him.

The party is from 8 p.m until 1 a.m. Saturday at the bar on Philadelphia Street.
