I was in the stands when we played Tennessee the day we got the after effects of a hurricane that passed through Texas days earlier. At halftime they put a tour boat on the Ohio river that almost capsized. The wind was horrid and when I got home roofs were blown off, that was a game in September that we lost. Also at a game against the Pats we won against Brady where a thunderstorm and driving rain hit in the 4th quarter when Brady was trying to drive to take the lead. We won that game, but weather definitely a factor. That is 2 games I thought of off the top of my head. As for complaining about the weather just because you and your crowd like inclement weather to watch a games, you need to accept why you may be in the majority, it may not be as big a majority as you think. The Bengals sell out because they have maybe the best QB and WR in the NFL. I think back to our bad years and I owned 4 tickets. I could not give them away in December when we were out of the playoffs for a 40 degree dry game. 40 on th river is like 25 degrees. Maybe try to refrain from pulling numbers out of your rear to support your arguments in the future, you seem to do it often.

We can both offer subjective opinion but the fact remains the same..The Bengals will be playing @Paycor for at least another 11 years.....when the bengals are comptetive and playing well they sell out or near sellout regardless of weather as do most competitive teams in open air stadiums..obviously the majority of fans could care less sbout the weather conditions RE: Domed Stadium - WeezyBengal - 07-15-2025 (07-15-2025, 11:37 AM)ERIC1 Wrote: You are missing the point and being assumptive to suggest cincinnati will host superbowls, ncaa final fours etc..We just iexpanded and r3novated our convention center and 8-9 months out of the year we can host other entertainment events both at paycor and GABP..I do agree with you US Bank Arena needs gone They both get 1 concert a year.

This is true. Yall (not you Eric) brought up that Brady downpour game and none of us were upset it helped win the game (although if yall remember it was Huber's massive punt in the middle of it that was significant). These conditions used to be homefield advantage for teams like ours... Is that not a thing anymore?
