Pittsburgh Steelers' Antonio Brown arrives to camp in 1931 Rolls-Royce, James Harrison in fire truck

By Alex Butler

July 27 (UPI) -- His All-Pro teammate might be holding out, but Antonio Brown wasn't doing that Thursday when it came to the vehicle department at Pittsburgh Steelers training camp.

Brown showed up to Latrobe, Pa. in the backseat of a 1931 Rolls-Royce Phantom I. He wore a slick suit as he lounged in the classic car. A chauffeur sporting a tuxedo was at the wheel of the vehicle.

This year marks the third consecutive season Brown has shown up to training camp while sitting in a Rolls-Royce.

But the 29-year-old was upstaged immediately, when linebacker James Harrison arrived driving a fire truck with the siren blaring. Harrison's truck came from the St. Vincent Fire Department.

A 1931 Rolls-Royce Phantom I can be purchased for $300,000 to $500,000.

Harrison, 39, is entering his 15 pro season, and his 14th season with the Steelers. Brown has three consecutive seasons with at least 1,200 yards and 10 touchdowns. The three-time All-Pro celebrated his birthday in style earlier this month by parking a Rolls-Royce inside of a Miami restaurant. Brown signed a five-year, $68 million contract extension in February.

The Steelers are still waiting for All-Pro running back Le'Veon Bell to show up to offseason workouts. Brown took to Snapchat on Wednesday to talk about the matter.

"The sun's shining on me man, it's a beautiful day. Hey, if you guys follow Le'Veon tell him 'Hey get...going.' We need that guy. Just tell him to sign the contract right now. If you follow Le'Veon Bell, tell Le'Veon Bell I'm looking for him. It's some bull. Time to go, bro."

Bell is currently set to play for $12.1 million next season but is seeking a long-term contract.

Pittsburgh reported to camp on Thursday and have their first practice at 2:55 p.m. on Friday.
