For me, it was probably 1975 because my dad got transferred to Cincinnati from Kansas City and the Bengals were doing much better than the Chiefs then. His company was always giving away tickets, so we saw two games that year. I looked at the program and thought the Bengals had funny first and last names, such as "Booby," "Rufus," and "Trumpy." They won both of the games we saw, which were the Browns on opening day and the Patriots on a warm October day.
The Bengals lost in the playoffs that year to the Raiders. Hmm. It was at Oakland, and the Raiders were just a little bit better.
