Took the family to Put-in-Bay for the weekend. 5 kids, all over 21. Had a great time. I wore Bengals garb the whole trip. I gotta tell you, everywhere I walked, I heard "Who-Dey!" Of course I would yell "Who-Dey" in return. Ran into 4 Pittsburgh fans - All 4 were very unintelligent and ridiculous and were all Jerry Springer type shit. Ran into a few Browns fans and had a decent conversation. I could see hope in their eyes, but the mannerism was more like "Ok, we're the Browns." I don't hate the Browns because they are from OHIO - so speaking to these fans was a pretty good conversation. Ironically, I went to Mohito Bay and even though I'm wearing a collared shirt with a big Bengal B on it, I was served beer in a Browns bottle. Ok, that sucked (should've taken a picture). All-in-all, good people up there from all sorts of places. I was just very proud of all the "Who-Deys" I received. After paying $4.50 a beer each day and having a lot of it, I needed something awesome to reflect upon.
That is all. :andy:

Took a day off from Walleye fishing a couple years back and spent a day there. We rented a golf cart and drove around all day drinking. Great Time ! There's a ton of old cars there.

We saw a car parade which had a lot of collector cars. It was pretty interesting and nice to see. The guy I rented the house from was actually a guy I ran into at a bar in Covington after a Bengals game. Great house, great time, pretty pricey to party it up there. Loved the Bloody Mary's in the morning and the "Who-Deys" in the afternoon. Kinda felt perfect. Great Bengal fans up there. They will shout it out too! Very proud!

Sounds like you had a great weekend! I haven't been to Put in Bay in about 25 years. I'm sure it's a little different than when I was there last.
Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations

It probably has, as in all things over time. Specially the beer prices!
Good Lord, I had to keep reasoning with myself (At least your not paying $8.75 like at the stadium)! Plus, there is probably a lot more foreigners there now that have very bad gold cart driving skills. I was playing putt-putt with the fam yesterday and there was a family which appeared to be from India or some shit. They were on the hole I just left that I accidentally hit it in the water. However, there was some kinda grate that when that happened, it shot your ball out of the water about 2ft from the cup. I told them about it and they got excited and started aiming for the water instead of the hole. LOL, I'm their golf pro! But, I fugged them up on the rules of golf forever. It was entertaining.

Yeah, I was there with some buddies, all of us in our early 20s. We camped and walked to the bars, already trashed from drinking all day at the campsite. As I remember, I woke up about 30 feet from the tent, covered in what seemed like a thousand mosquito bites.
Side note, that auto-ejecting water hazard is a great idea. If they put those in ponds, here in the South, it would save a lot of arms from alligator attacks.

Sir, I believe that might have been me? I seen no other collared Bengal shirts. lol, had I known you were a Bengal board member, I would have had a drink with you. Oh, and now I know what type of beer you drink! That sucks we missed the opportunity huh?

From an out of stater, what is this Put In Bay you speak of? Like an amusement park?
Deceitful, two-faced she-woman. Never trust a female, Delmar, remember that one simple precept and your time with me will not have been ill spent.

Awesome.
I havent been to PIB in years. Growing up my family used to have a boat berthed up in Catawba Island, and we'd take it to PIB annually. Lots of memories up in that area, and great walleye fishing. I keep telling my wife the next time were back home visiting we need to take a drive up that way for a day or two, she's never been and the party atmosphere during the summer is right up her alley.

I wouldnt describe it as a popular vacation spot, but its known to most Ohioans and its a pretty nice place to spend a weekend or two in the summer. Camping, boating, fishing, and plenty of bars. I havent been in about 17 years though.

In addition to Perrys monument, some decent shops and a pretty nice putt-putt course.

Cool story....I had a similar experience at Norris Lake, TN (my fav home-away-from-home) with a lot of folks wearing Bengals gear. All were pumped about the season, or maybe they were just pumped full of booze, but it was a lot of fun yelling Who Dey! at other boaters....one girl flashed us her boobies, which was a nice touch.
