Our Cincinnati Bengals are the third professional team to be based in Cincinnati and they have all shared the name "Bengals". The name came from a brand of ovens that is in the original founders kitchen. Pretty cool to go through the history. 

Yep Portsmouth, Ohio Spartans. Spartan Municipal Stadium is still there. They've tried to get the NFL to take it over a couple times. They were there like 1932-35 or something? One of those old big NFL names was there, forget his name?

Also there were the Ironton, Ohio Tanks around the same time? Don't think they went on to be anybody else though? Coy Bacon of 70's Bengals fame played for the Ironton tigers in H.S. at you guessed it Tanks stadium.
