Who can remember the first time we all saw our favorite team in person?
For me it was in 2001 when I was a freshman in high school. As I said in my intro thread my stepmom was from Cincy and I remember that we went up the first week of September to visit her family and me begging my dad and her to please take me to the home opener versus the Patriots. Luckily they did.
Nothing like walking into The Jungle for the first time and seeing so many other Bengals fans. Before we went to our seats, my dad bought me a shirt and a hat, and we just walked around and enjoyed the atmosphere before settling down.
My throat was raw by the end of the game but was totally worth it to see my team get the victory.
Getting all nostalgic now really focuses on me getting back up to Cincy to watch a game as haven't been to a home game since late 2018. Hopefully can at some point this season.
