I hate to break it to you but there isn't 500+ people in wheelchairs attending games at Paul Brown.  That point right there is why I don't get your tone. 

If I broke my leg last week and had tickets in the nose bleeds. The Bengals would move me down to the Wheelchair section where there is a million open seats available. 

Hmmmmmm.......Light Bulb going on.... a cheap ticket, a little plaster of paris, a pair of used crutches that are in my closet from when I really broke my leg......

Like I said, it's illegal for them to ask why someone needs the tickets.

And there might have been open spots next to you but that wasn't a playoff game.

My beef's with you, not the Bengals, because you took advantage of the situation. 

Again and last time I'm going to say it.. even with that wheelchair button selected it doesn't actually show you the Wheelchair section that section is in white with nothing you can select. 

It shows you the top row of the lower bowl which is what I clicked.  You are wrong it's okay but i'm done having this stupid argument.

Enjoy the game tomorrow.

EXACLTY! 

The top row of the lower bowl isn't part of the lower bowl! You can literally see that there's a separate ledge above the lower level! What else would you think that meant?!

My son is flying in from NYC and in a suite of a high level Bengal employee.

I almost dropped $1300 on two tickets in section 110 row 9, right on the 50 yd line behind the Bengals bench yesterday. The wife texted me and asked me if i wanted to go (which i really didn't). Long story short, when she realized what the temp would be, she asked me if i wanted to see if my brother in law and nephew wanted to go. 

The thought of being in that atmosphere during the first playoff win in 31 years after all the shit i've been through (along with all the other Bengals fans) was pretty enticing but i toughed it out and decided not to do it. She even broke out the ole "you only live once" line. 

The drawback was if they lost (which they're not going to do) i don't want to be sitting there thinking "$1300 for 3 hours of this". 

Not to try and be a debbie downer but i'm still not getting up and looking forward to this game only to have to deal with all that bullshit if it goes the other way (which it won't). Never doing that again but i will have it on my computer monitor and i'll watch and enjoy it as long as things are going good, like i've been doing for the last few weeks.

Yeah. I'm wearing long underwear (top and bottom), we have hand warmers and I'm going to put those inside one of those little pouches quarterbacks wear to keep their hands warm (I think we still have one from my playing days.......... brother is looking), jeans with lining, thick socks, a sweatshirt, gloves with the fingers cut out (so I can type on my board), and a heavy wool jacket with a hood! 

It's going to be FREEZING! Hopefully the crippled section blocks some wind and coney crates will warm us up!

Coney crates and i'd be sneaking some of these in.

Do you actually like the coney's at the game? Every time I had one it was cold and not enough chili!

I've never had one that i thought was "bad".

I didn't even think about those but that's a good idea! 

Might try to get in some Tito's! Just need to find out if they sell Diet Mountain Dew!

Do you know if they do? I'd think they have to! I have Covid brain and haven't been to a game since it started so I can't remember!

My mouth's already watering at the thought of Coney Crates!

Gotcha... I haven't had one in years.  Cold and not enough Chili for me LOL plus it's not a bad option getting it after the game.

Katie Blackburn should create some kind of Fandom Purple Heart for fans like you.

Unfortunately I work outside more often than I want to, so it's gonna be reasonably balmy for me... But yeah... Layers and alcohol consumption are key.

Slightly confused on longworth hall…what exactly is it? Is it. Food Hall?

Had to laugh last night as I imagined how the conversation went with your wife.

"Honey, you're going to die if you go to the game!"

"But, dear, its Monday Night Football. And it the Steelers game."

5 more hours to go... WHO-DEY!!!

She made me prove I could do it, because she was sure I would die. So, the Saturday prior I went to one of my nephew's ballgames. My brother-in-law was coaching, looked up and yelled "What the hell are you doing here?" I only lasted about 45 minutes, but it was enough the wife relented. She still brings it up as an example of stupidity when she talks about me to her friends.  They just don't understand. Monday Night Football AND Stealers week.
