It was the 2nd Sunday in a row that it was this crazy cold and my Father declined going per the weather to both games. The previous week I was able to get a friend to go but this particular game I could not get anybody to go or even give the ticket away outside.
It was the last year in Riverfront and went down to hang out with some of my Fathers friends from West Carrolton. Anyway I only had two seats at the time on 16th row but they could not believe I was crazy enough to drive all the way there by myself to see a meaningless game for the Bengals.
Said that they had two front row seats opening up the next season when moving into PBS and I was just the type of diehard Bengals fan they wanted to have the seats. Anyway attending this particular game landed me on the front row right behind defense in PBS.
Oh and the Bengals won knocking the Vikings from the playoffs and being I was drinking that day and so stoked I ran around the stadium wishing all the Viking fans good luck in the playoffs.
But man was it cold that day.
I think he's talking about the 1989 Christmas night game that knocked the Bengals out of the playoffs.
