And you can bet your ass I wish I could attend ANY Bengals game(s) right now, but the job dictates my movements. I've only been able to attend two of them:
- Jan 3 2010 when they were visiting the Jets for a game that had no playoff implications and the wind chill was 4F. L 0-37; this was not fun considering the circumstances of the weather and weight of the game for the Bengals
- Nov 11 2012 10-hour road trip with my co-worker (Giants fan, we drove instead of taking the chartered bus); he got a package through the Giants for the Westin; W 31-13; this was megafun! Even though I was with the opposing team's crowd, I got to see a traveling veteran Giants fan in action - our seats were right in front of a box; we started to occupy the box but no one else came to claim it; the lead travel Giants fan requested $10 or $20 from the group; still no one came to claim the box; 10 minutes into the game a security guard was making his rounds, the lead talked to the guard and handed him that wad of $10s and $20s and the guard left, we never saw him again. But yes, the atmosphere is different being there. And this wasn't a playoff game. I could only imagine...
Oh, and for some reason, two Jets fans was with the group - and they were there only to troll the Giants fans
You watching at home thinking mnf was rocking more is a you thing.
