RE: Off the field Bengal trivia - samhain - 02-13-2021

Pacman was the wrestling one.


RE: Off the field Bengal trivia - grampahol - 02-13-2021

I'm guessing Ron Pritchard for #5
Quote:Pritchard began wrestling following his first year with the Oilers, when he was visiting his friend Bob Lueck, a football player and wrestler, in CalgaryAlbertaCanada, and was introduced to Stu Hart. Hart trained Pritchard and a week later, Pritchard wrestled his first match against Hart.[1] Pritchard only wrestled during the off-season from football, and wrestled all over the United States, including in San Francisco for Roy Shire and Detroit for The Sheik. He wrestled against people including Ray StevensPat Patterson and Superstar Billy Graham. In 1981, Pritchard wrestled his last matches for a Christian wrestling promotion in Arizona.[1]

That fanene incident made me sad. He was and still is the only Bengals/former Bengals player I've ever met. I took a picture with him and had him sign a hat when I was a sophomore in highschool. Maybe I'll post the picture if I can find it.

These are the correct answers (except correct spelling is Pat McInally)

Rep to Bfine for the Pete Koch question.  Koch was a first round pick.


RE: Off the field Bengal trivia - fredtoast - 02-14-2021

BTW Casanova, Reid, and McInally were all First Team All Pro players.

Reggie Williams started 196 regular season games for the Bengals and was a key part of both Super Bowl teams. He was 35 for the '88 playoffs, but had a sack in every postseason game and played great in the Super Bowl.

Thanks to Fred for skewing toward old school trivia. I did better on this one than the other ones.

Extra bonus question: Which German-born player implausibly loved Budweisers? No accounting for taste. Called them "'Weisers."

Speaking of Pac Man:

Arrest records from Hamilton County, Ohio, show that the former Cincinnati Bengals cornerback was arrested early Monday morning on a misdemeanor assault charge. According to Cincinnati TV station WCPO, Jones was arrested after allegedly punching and kicking a person in the head until they were unconscious.
