This is my take, as well.  You can look at a half-empty (or half-full, if that's your bag) stadium and apply your own chosen logic to it.  I agree with  NFL gameday pricing itself into being far more of a luxury purchase than huge stadiums of people can afford on a regular basis.  However, there are some more amusing agendas you can use to explain the half-empty stadium:

1.  too much player politics
2.  the Bengals drafted a woman-beater
3.  people are sick of Mike Brown
4.  people were sick of Marvin, and aren't sold on Taylor yet
5.  a redhaired QB is weird
6.  the Bengals are moving to LA/London/San Antonio/Intercourse PA next year, anyways
7. we had 3 losing seasons in a row
8. the cheerleaders are underpaid
9. seeing so many men in tiger costumes is too similar to a furry orgy
