November 30, 200916 yr :irked:I think the streak ends this week at 50 games. It's a shame an 8-3 1st place team has to worry about such a thing. There are 6,000 tickets available for the game.
November 30, 200916 yr Tough to sellout with the holidays closely coming, especially when they are playing a last place team.
November 30, 200916 yr It is sad that a 1st place team can't sellout! They were selling out when they weren't very good, which tells you this has to be economy related. I love the people who will say that it isn't though... good stuff.

I'm sure food, shelter and clothing are a big concern for a lot of people.

Spending 200 bucks on the Bengals/Lions game in 30 degree weather vs all of the above mentioned or some Christmas presents for the family. It is a no-brainer for most. I'm very thankful that I can afford to do both.

I'm very thankful that I can afford to do both. You are dead on. I will be there as well and i'm also fortunate to be in position to have tickets right now. All we hear is we are a small market city and people are shocked with tough times. Barney Kroger will have to come up big this week. Edited November 30, 200916 yr by John Anthony
November 30, 200916 yr Author I'm hopeful someone will bail the Bengals out, watching Cincy play every week is my highlight of the week. Hate to see the streak end at 50.
December 2, 200916 yr Thom Brennamann & Brian Billick are scheduled to announce the game on Fox. I really want to hear Billick in the booth.
December 2, 200916 yr 6,000 left for the game and they are behind the Houston sales pace. SD is a first place team and they've been bailed out twice by the NFL as well. People are losing jobs left and right and to boot they are playing the Lions, not exactly a seller's market.
