So I normally go to Gallos on Bethel Rd. There’s not a good Bengals-centric bar like there are Browns and Steelers unfortunately. Gallos is great though.What’s the good bengals bar in columbus chumps? I’m fully recovered from COVID and ready to party. When I moved to America we moved to pristine Cincinnati, OH. Within a year I was introduced to the Ickey Shuffle, was singing welcome to the Jungle, and thought Boomer Esiason was the coolest thing since the other side of the pillow. Had a Chris collinsworth poster on my bedroom wall. Joe Montana made me cry at the end of that Super Bowl. Their decades of horrific play and me moving from Kenwood Apartments and the Queen City slowly made me lose interest (and trashy NFL fans), but the Bengals will always hold a special place in my heart as the first sports team I cared about. If they win tomorrow it’ll be the first playoff win since I was 6. Who Dey!
STFU, already.This isn’t a schtick cuzzy bubba, everything out of Ohio is abysmal and everyone knows it*, they just grew up liking a team before they realized that and can’t change now.
*except Chad and Willy.
Bengals fandom does’t spread out far, in my experience. A good buddy I work with is from Dayton, and he’s always been a Browns fan. Says there are a lot of Browns fans in Dayton. WTF is that?Ya WTF is with all the Browns fans here, way outnumber Bengals fans. Always found it odd. I married into an insane Steelers family so it’s nice to talk a little trash for once.

Hell, Northeastern Kentucky is all Steelers fans.
This is why Joe was sent here. To deliver us from this eternal place of wailing and gnashing of teeth. We will be delivered, boys.
Browns and Steelers have been around longer. Lots of rooted Browns/Steeler fans.

My dad is a Browns fan because he was one before the Bengals existed and didn't switch which I can totally respect.
My stepdad switched when the Bengals came, went to both Super Bowls and had season tickets at Riverfront until Mike Brown priced him out with PBS.
There's a smattering of Bengals fans in the western end of Kentucky. When the Cardinals left St. Louis, that left the Bears and Bengals as the two closest teams.
One of my best friends in grade and high school is her nephew. Was home from college one Christmas break at the Boiler Room Bar. My friend came in and walked up to me and said, "I'd like you to meet my aunt's husband, JIm Fregosi."Yep. My 6th grade teacher was a 23 yr old UK fan and absolutely beautiful! It broke the hearts of the boys in class who were UofL fans when they found out she liked UK.
Only to see her get fired because she accidentally let it out that she was living with a guy and a kid mentioned it to his mother and she raised hell.
She went on to marry Jim Fregosi (manager of the Louisville minor league baseball team) who would eventually manage the Philies in the 1993 World Series.
Oh come on! The Bengals look fresh af!

I see the Titans are forgotten again. I mean, I get it, I’d probably forget them too if I didn’t decide to be a fan of them because I liked their stadium as a kid at the MCB against Syracuse.
F*ck UT, growing up in Harlan there were a lot or orange clad mouth breathing pieces of sh*t fans who loved to talk. I hate that fanbase with a passion. F*ck their ugly orange, f*ck Fat Phil, and f*ck Rick Barnes (even though he's a nice guy).
The game is at 1 numbnutsBoy, there won’t be a dry eye in the house tonight. Whatever tribute they come up with will never be enough for what that guy has done for UK. Can’t wait to see it when someone posts it. He’s been associated/part of UK since basically most all of us have been alive.
Cheers to your kind soul Joe B!![]()
