I want to say 1998, I got my very first Bengal jerseys. It was Corey Dillon in white, I also bought a black Jeff Blake jersey that same day. Clearance rack, nobody in upstate New York wanted Bengal merchandise, especially in large youth sizes. Obviously, my allowance money was more than enough to get two (how sad is that?)

Anyway, Corey Dillon was pretty much the only fond memory during my childhood as a Bengal fan. I remember each season naively thinking that this was the year Corey would lead us to the super bowl. The day he through his gear into the stands and stormed out of PBS was one of the saddest days ever. Yet another in my long list of favorite players who left the team in a negative way...

I feel your pain having lived in central New Jersey. No Bengal gear around there but I was able to get my hands on some stuff. I'm a bit older than you. My first #28 jersey was Larry Kinnebrew.
