Highly doubt that. I feel like Jax is always the home team.

Oh shit, they are the home team. They give up a home game. 

They play Washington. 

How lame.

I guess I'll be booking my flight as soon as they say what the date is... Sad Not missing a "HOME" game.

EDIT: I see it's October 30th. Just got the email from the Bengals. Looks like Halloween in London. Could be worse.

Not sure I like this, though I am happy for our fellow fans in the UK.

I'm so happy. Never thought the Bengals would come over here, let alone as the home team. WOW 

I cant wait. The lineup of games looks pretty good generally. Think i will get the season ticket option. Will be a lot of traveling but this i can not miss.

AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME !!!!!

The Bengals just lost a season ticket holder of 4 seats.

My guess is my family of friends will also get rid of their seats as well so the Bengals likely to lose 8 seats.

Obviously, the NFL nor the Bengals care as they are getting richer by other means.

It is just not fair to sell us an expensive seat license for 8 regular season games and then only give us 7 games.

So congrats to the Bengals and the NFL for pissing off season ticket holders on one more city.

I am so ready for 2024 season. I love pro football and hoping for a great Bengals year. Regardless, always remember it is a game and entertainment.

I'm glad you will get to see them in person, I've only been able to go to one regular season game ever so I understand the feeling.

Fantastic for us U.K based Bengals....been following them since 1988 and the first chance to see them!!

Be really interested to see how many british bengals they are ....we should sell out as there are a lot of UK redskins fans from when NFL first got popular over here

I'm shocked. I didn't think the Bengals would give up a home game and I do understand that Cincy-based fans would be feeling let down by it.

That said, I can't stop smiling!

This is getting silly. It is logistically impossible for the NFL to have a team in London. The league just wants to develop a fan base over their who will watch more games on tv and buy more merchandise. They don't give a shit about the effect on the fans or players.

I just read an article that said NFL stadiums will start getting smaller and smaller because the money is not in ticket sales anymore. So they don't care if they piss off the people that actually attend the games in person.

I predict that we will have more Thursday night games and probably even games on Tuesday and Wednesday after the next collective bargaining agreement. The players will sell out for more money.

Nice. Assuming Jay is still there it'll be the Redskins turn to fire their coach after a London loss.

I agree Fred. I love it when we are sold out with our fans and the noise does help the home team.

I can watch my high definition projection TV in the comforts of home each home game. I will save about $600 a game.

Greed is overtaking the NFL and you nailed it, the Bengals and the NFL don't care about the season ticket holders, this proved it.
