Can't imagine the path to becoming a Bengals fan for an Australian but I love it when it happens.  Kudos and Who Dey to you.

Ouch...that's dedication.  I would be spent by the time the game rolled around from all the nervous energy used throughout the day.

It's weird, I coach swimming and baseball.  I still participate in the occasional master's swimming meet or charity baseball game, but nothing gets my stomach churning like it did in college before a meet or game like a Bengals game.  I know that I am not a part of the team, but I am so vested in their success that my nerves really soar before a game.  Same feeling I used to get in college, some 25 years later.  And no other team or sport comes close to giving me those feelings. Weird.

Well, after checking the CBS listings for our area I found out they are not showing an early game since the Dolphins are playing at 4:00 p.m. It's much more difficult to stream games than a few years ago, so if I want to see it live I guess I need to go to Buffalo Wings!

One of my X-roommates at the Grand Canyon but from Dayton originally now resides in Australia so there may be more than you think. 

Who Dey !

Started following the team in the early 90's, bought my first Madden game and had to find a team to play with. I supported the Balmain Tigers (now Wests Tigers due to a merger) in Rugby League so the Bengals were an easy pick. Started following the scores (pre internet so it was hard) and catching the highlights randomly on tv down here. It's much easier now with gamepass and games on tv down here. I eventually got to a game in 2011, the season opener in Cleveland. People around us couldn't understand why an Australia would choose the Browns- Bengals to attend.
