I was there in 2016. Heart ripped out of my chest, thrown down, stomped on. And, of course, broken.
I am like a slot machine addict. Keep putting in the coin, pulling the lever, thinking that this time will be different.
And yes, I will be there on Saturday. Section 152, row 16, seats 1 & 2. And I truly believe that THIS TIME WILL BE DIFFERENT.

And if this works and the Bengals win the Super Bowl, I will PERSONALLY (send my wife) take care of your "other" needs for the rest of the year.

Army buddy and I will be there. Taking 2 of my kids and 1 of his. We listened to the last Bengals playoff win on my shortwave radio via Armed Forces Radio in a bunker in the desert of northern Saudi Arabia during Desert Storm. Seems like a few lifetimes ago. Time to end the drought
RE: Who's Going To The Game?! - BengalFanInNJ - 01-14-2022
Man, I wish I was able to go. My son has a rugby tournament that day, so that put the kibosh on our plans. I did tell his coach that if the Bengals win, and by some miracle the Steelers beat the Chiefs and Pats beat the Bills, my son will NOT be at the following weeks matches since we will be in Cincinnati.
Have fun boys.

I'll be in Cincinnati tomorrow afternoon around 7pm.
At PBS around 3pm section 140 watching the offensive line closely throughout the game. The hardest jobs in Cincy between 4pm-8pm on Saturday is being an offensive lineman for the Bengals. Time to prove it guys!

Ready to roar!
Are you serious? I know they're the best seats in the place but you really got season tickets in the crippled section when you don't have anyone that needs them and robbed people that do need them of going to the game?

I say this in all seriousness that section doesn't come close to being sold out. They literally have to sale season tickets there to get people in that section. We got them on accident anyways... I thought it was in the lower bowl at the very top.
That section spans the entire field on both sides of the stadium... there is definitely not that many "crippled" or people in wheel chairs attending Bengals games lol

I went to the Monday Night Football against the Stealers a few years back in a wheelchair. It was 2 weeks after open heart surgery and it was the only way I could go. I sat with friends who had season tickets in the club section, but had to use the chair to get there. What a pain in the ass that was. People crowd onto the elevator right in front of you while you're sitting there waiting your turn. And drunks falling over you on the concourse. I have to really admire Brad for going through all that, my one experience would make me stay home.

Monday Night Football, Steelers game, wheelchair -- two weeks after open-heart surgery! Color me impressed.

Color my wife and my Thoracic surgeon unimpressed. After I got out of cardiac ICU and into a room the next day, the surgeon came in to explain what all he had re-routed. When he got done he asked if I had any questions. I told him I had tickets in 2 weeks for MNF against the Steelers, can I go? His response, "Really, that's your question?" He said I had to have someone take me to and from in a wheelchair (friends from college, check), I had to ride in the back seat so if we were in an accident the air bag wouldn't kill me (check), and that the next day I would probably feel so bad I wish I hadn't gone (Feel bad, check, wish I hadn't gone- not on your life) Wife was pissed. I mean, c'mon, it's MNF against the Steelers and I'm gonna miss it? Pulled out the win that night too.

It doesn't come close to being sold out? So you think I chose seats near the endzone instead of the middle of the field on the RAIDERS side of the field instead of near the 50 on the Bengals side, which is where we have sat for EVERY GAME SINCE 03?!
You're a dick. Seriously.

Where are your seats?
RE: Who's Going To The Game?! - Sled21 - 01-14-2022
Do the Bengals not check to ensure wheelchair accessible seats are going to people with someone in the wheelchair in the party?

No. They legally can't (used to not be able to and I assume they still can't).
People could also say "oh, I have a bum leg and can't walk up or down stairs to my seats."

Really don't understand that at all. You would think it would be like a handicapped parking spot. When I went to the game in a chair, I just used it to get to and from and sat in a regular seat, because my limitation was exertion. The ushers were kind enough to store it for me and bring it back after the game.

I already said it was by accident but kudos to you for the name calling. Wheelchair seating is the row behind the lower bowl... 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.

How do you know that they're even in the crippled section if you ordered them by accident and it didn't say?
In every site that I've seen, you have to slide over a little toolbar that says "I have a person with a disability" or something of that nature, so that's another reason I doubt it was by accident.
There's not a million seats in the crippled section. It only goes from the 20 to the 20 (I think) and it's not like it's just one person because the person in the wheelchair usually has three other people with them.
Answer that first question before anything.

Ah hell.... Jason scored a ticket in section 104. I'm a COVID replacement.

When you go to buy season tickets on the Bengals website you will notice there isn't anything preventing you from buying those seats.
I noticed when I got to the game there was a W on the ticket and eventually figured it out it stood for Wheelchair.
I had actually asked the people I've sat to if it was okay to have these tickets... they said yes and have had those season tickets for 5+ years. Your beef is really with the Bengals not me.
The last home game I literally had 15+ open seats to the left of me

I'm looking at the Bengals website right now and there's literally a little wheelchair with a tab next to it that you have to swipe to get crippled tickets.
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.
