Not a chance. I live here. My attatchment is to the city not the Brown family's product.
If they were to leave they'd easily become my most hated team in the entire league. I'd root for the Steelers every single time they played them. I'd root for everyone against them, every year, and in every game.
The amount of money I've personally given to the Bengals courtesy of the stadium deal is well into the thousands. Couple that with 5 years as a season ticket holder, and 30+ years of time and energy put into fandom, I would be irate if they picked up and left town.
After everything this city did for them, and with what little they gave in return? If they packed it up and ran for more money then I would hope every single Cincinnatian would absolutely despise them.
