September 24, 201312 yr Oh my, Gio is special. We all saw the highlights of him spinning in the air on that TD run. However, he gave himself up in the air on a few other plays as well. He gets low, waits for blocks, looks for creases, and then he runs hard. The defense does not see him until he has gone 3 or 4 yards. It was nice to see him take that pass and race down the left sidelines. He is definitely our "Ray Rice" or "Brian Westbrook". I would love to see him really break one on a rush. On the other hand, the Law Firm is getting old. BJGE is still "serviceable", but the Bengals need to get Gio the ball as much as possible. Forget 50-50 balance. By the way, the atmosphere at PBS was electric with the mixture of fans. When those in green started there "GO Pack", Bengals fans did a good job of booing them down. The last time I was that excited on one play (the fumble return for a TD) was when Peter Warrick returned that punt for a TD against KC in 2003. I know there have been good plays to win ball games since then, but I am referring to the ones that I witnessed. Also, I got hit by a cheesehead thrown from the top deck. I'm glad they are relatively soft. I should have kept it, but a very embarrassed GB fan came down to retrieve it. I enjoyed when the Packer fans were leaving and the Bengal fans started in with the "Go Pack Go" chant. Man am I sunburned.
September 24, 201312 yr Seemed as if there were quite a few Packers' fans in attendance. They're like Steelers fans: everywhere. Tons of them at every game. Ridiculous that they had to buy Jets seats or deal with a scalper in order to go. Wonder how low attendance would have been without the Cheese....... Very difficult to get tickets for home games at Lambeau. Easier for a Packer fan to drive 6-7 hours to watch them play in Cincy, where it's much easier to get tickets. My nephew and his buddies made the trip from Milwaukee to go to the game. I

NBA will have fans about but it is more about the superstars so allegiances come and go. Baseball, outside of NY, Boston, and Chicago is pretty much confined to the region.
