We're already building a concert venue downtown.

I don't need to put on any type of hat to know that the county can't afford to build a brand new multi-billion dollar dome.

Impressive, you go outside and watch all home and Bengals games. Can you send us video of when they are on the road  and when home of you watching them outside? Otherwise, I call BS

As long as the team is winning or the game is close, I agree with you.
The cold/rain/snow/wind gets REAL noticeable when team is getting beat lol.

For Dehner, he tweeted last year, "it's depressing being in this building," (PBS, IE he was depressed about the season, I guess).

So I wrote, with absolutely no snark or condescension, "then why not look for a new job if it's so depressing?" Aaaand he blocked me lol.

Ha! Must have hit Paul on the wrong day.

You got my interest with "Hoe Games"?????

I wonder if the fanbase has anything to do with the stadium rating? Depending on what sections you sit in, you can have a pretty lame fan experience, while others is rock & roll.

How many stadiums has you visited in NFL

Just PBS for football. I've only seen other football stadiums on TV.

It warms my heart to see so many Bengals fans aren't flowers. I'd say it brings a tear to my BUT I ALREADY SAID I AIN'T NO FLOWER!!!

Yes, that is 2 games and they play 16 a year. We want to see the video(s) and pics of you outside at home watching games in bad weather.

I would but I'm on my work computer. I only had those 2 cause I had to prove to my coworkers that I go to all Bengals games (but only when they play outside 'cause I ain't no flower).

What the hell are you two even arguing about?

I don't believe you've ever watched them in London.

At Riverfront in the '80s it was pretty easy to get a cheap price for a ticket near the top of the upper deck. In November 2018, a friend and I went to Lucas Oil to see the Colts/Titans. He paid, but I think the tickets were only about $28. They were waaaaayyyy up there. That place has a nice steam-punky quality to it. I have not been to PBS, but on TV and from the outside it seems fine. There shouldn't be a dome. To me it's weird that SoFi stadium, where they get some of the best weather in the country, they sort of have a dome.

Lions

Falcons
Raiders
Rams
Chargers

While you are taking this perspective from a player POV as being wimps or whatever, look at it from a fan POV. Being in a climate-controlled environment removes need to worry about rain and wind, and wearing a crazy amount of layers when it's very cold. More enjoyable experience for many fans.

None of those 11 are in the AFCN.

The biggest problem with PBS is it has no character, and the inside is a sea of concrete.  They need to overhaul the interior.  Picures, jerseys, displays, paint, murals; take your pick or all of the above.

I think if they just created some decent displays and did something similar to what the Reds have done with their bars and restaurants then that would go a long, long way.

Modernize the stadium a bit and give it some character.  

Agreed.

The location is great (at least for us non locals, we stay on the Kentucky side and walk over for games) and the seats are good. But man it's like walking around a prison in some places.
