I live in North Carolina. I was in the Air Force for 26 years. Originally from Fort Wayne. When I was growing up there were no Indianapolis Colts. I had family near Cincinnati and went to Reds games when we visited them. Got hooked on the Bengals. Everyone in my family are Colts fans but me.
I have always worn Bengals gear, even during the 90s. Nobody ever seemed to pay any attention or thought "poor guy". I see so much Steelers crap around, I wanna puke. Never see Bengals stuff here.
Now everywhere I go people see me in my Bengals shirts or jackets, say "I was cheering for them Saturday" or "I hope they get to the Super Bowl" or "Those guys are really good". I'm not used to having this happen. Is that what is like to finally have a young exciting team that looks ready to make the playoffs for years to come? Man it is a great time to be a Bengals fan, especially for me outside the Cincinnati area.
