I can remember going to family gatherings, where my Dad and all my Uncles were watching football, and as a young kid trying to pick a team to follow. I landed with Bart Starr and the Packers, until Cincinnati fielded a team, which sealed the deal.... root for the home town team. Been a Bengals fan every since.

LOVED the early days at Nippert!  Got to see Lance Allworth, John Hadl and Daryl LaMonica.   Almost at field level in the early fall when it was dry and the whole 3 yards and a cloud of dust was a real thing.  I was 15 and was totally star struck with professional football players.  Seeing them up close after seeing them as black and white dots on a TV screen was beyond awe inspiring.

Kind of took a hiatus when I was in college in New Hampshire, but I always loved my Bengals.   I'll never give them up.
