Here’s Joe Burrow talking about Cincinnati’s nightlife and the team doing a good job of steering clear of COVID-19 (via @bengals) pic.twitter.com/d3Op1oFJoL
I'm sure bar and restaurant owners won't care for that comment, but I know it was made in jest. I do believe the team knows that this can be used to their advantage by staying out of high risk areas.
Not to derail the thread, but I can't help but feel that some of the Bama or Georgia players might not be smart enough to avoid such things. Zero academic standards tends to fill a roster with talented idiots.

I’m sure his comments can be reflective of other cities too…I can’t imagine Pittsburgh having a booming night life…
It did until the 11th overall pick of the 2004 draft. Since then it's been...

It is kind of funny that national media and the reader's comments are playing this like Joe dissed Cincinnati and Cincinnatians are saying that he is pretty much right
Leave it to Chad to give Joe some hints on Cincinnati nightlife
Joe Burrow said there’s not much to do in Cincinnati, i beg to differ, there’s a Starbucks downtown, a McDonald’s in Covington & a O’ Charley’s in Tri-County which in fact has the best complimentary bread known to man…

0 miles from New Orleans is all that state has to offer as far as I'm concerned. Ragtime, dixieland, jazz, the blues, and amazing French architecture surrounded by swamp and swamp runners... I'm sure I'm being harsh. I spent some time in delta country of Mississippi after Katrina. Really soured me on those coupla states.

You are probably being a lil harsh lol. I get it tho. The people in Baton Rouge were always super friendly, but its not exactly a city (or Louisana in general) I would be itching to move to. My one experience in NOLA when I was deployed for work to Baton Rouge was going to Mardi Gras. I had fun, but I think one Mardi Gras in a lifetime is enough lol.

And we all know that he REALLY LOVED that McDonalds in Covington. I will say to my dying day that the reason he always had to get IV's during games was because of his pre-game McDonalds visit lol. Is there any more entertaining Bengal in history than Chad?

Nope, and he's my fav Bengals ever for many reasons including the entertainment value.
Obviously the dude had elite talent and he made it fun to be a Bengals fan again after the bad 90s decade. Post-NFL career Chad is awesome. He is a Bengals ambassador and promoter.
