I went to a Bengals/Ravens game there about 10 years ago. I was hungover at the game, and the entire lower section stood up for the whole game. I had no choice but to stand also. That part was awful. The city is pretty cool, we stayed at a hotel walking distance from the stadium.

 

The bars in Kentucky were great, hence the hangover.

I don't understand the comment "Big Guy" 😉

One of the funniest lines of the WKRP in Cincinnati series.

 

The radio station had a Thanksgiving Day promotion where the station Mgr "released" live turkeys from a helicopter.  His final comment was: "as God is my witness, I thought turkey could fly".

Going to the game with my 2 boys. Staying Kentucky side. (12 hr road trip) Cousin of mine is a Bengals fan (weird thing is he's from Buffalo) said there are tons of bars & restaurants on the streets around the stadium & that's where most of the pre-game festivities take place.

Dude…oh man, the flavor is just coming back to me in my head.  Thank you.

 

@loyal2dagame also, I really like skyline chili and make it here, but that is just me.

 

 

 

 


Pretty sure Montgomery inn does their ribs in the oven.  It’s been a long time since I’ve had them but that’s just not right. Would be like us raving about some baked wings in Buffalo.

For some reason, I was there for a bengals/browns Monday nighter back in the early 80s … barely remember being there. Also went for an OSU spring game when the shoe was being refurbished. Don’t remember much then either. Stadium didn’t impress … an upgrade from highmark, but certainly no palace..has friends stay a few nights last year, and they said they liked it, but I have no specifics. I know, I’m not any help lol, but I guess you’ll be eating chili 😂

Bailey or Jennifer?

I stop there on the way to relatives in Tennessee or snowbirding in Florida! We have stayed about 30 minutes outside the Kentucky border and the accommodations are decent. So are the rib joints, but overall, bit of a shitehole! However, many Ohio towns, big and small share that distinction

I bought tickets to the game in Cincy.  

Can anyone give experiences with the area? What's the must see spots or must do things? 

Where's the Bills bars,  ect. 

We'll be there for a few days before we hit Ky for the Bourbon Trail. 

I'd love to meet up with any TBDers.

 

 

I went to the playoff game in '81 with delay of game penalty and Championship game in '88.  Too long ago to remember anything

ive gone to 6-7 games as I have some friends down there, but not for years so I’m not much help here.

 

However, I always found Cincy a blast and the people there are generally great.  
 

great rib place on the river.  Boy, begins with an M, but I can’t remember right now.  

 

Montgomery Inn.

You have to get Graeter's ice cream at Fountain Square (right downtown).  Try any of the flavors with chocolate chunks and then come back here and thank me.

 

Also a lot of nice craft beer places in Findlay Market which was a slum back in the 70s when I went to UC but now it's all fixed up.

 

Last time I was in Cincinnati it was a random summer day and I saw a guy walking down 4th Street with a Bills shirt.  So I said "Go Bills!" and he responded "Hey hey, Josh signed his extension!"

Montgomery Inn at the Boathouse?  I was in Cincy for work once and the ribs there were good and paid via per diem.

Graeter’s Black Raspberry Chip is my all time favorite ice cream. It is available at Buffalo area Wegman’s. Still worth a trip tho. 
 

If you are a craft beer fan, Rhinegeist would be on my list to visit.
