Watergate in Cincinnati.

[Guttpuppy]

From Athlon Sports Magazine.

In the Bengals home opener last year,on a 90-degree afternoon,at least 5 of the Paul Brown Stadium concession stands ran out of their $3 bottled water supply.

So what do they do?They start putting tap water in cups and selling it for $3 a pop also.

The public outcry was so intense that the incident was nicknamed "Watergate".The Bengals ultimately issued vouchers to the fans who paid $3 for the free public water.

they have to generate funds somehow..right?!?

[joester]

They def need to generate funds b/c there sure as hell not selling tickets.

I was there for that b/s last year. Not only did they do what the article mentioned, but the water in all of the restrooms was hot. When you turned on the faucets (either side), all that came out was scalding hot water. Pair that up w/ an already scorcher of a day, and a pathetic team on the field (Lebeau didn't have the team prepared or conditioned at all) and you've got some very angry fans. After that game I vowed to not be a fan anymore and to never go back.

and yet here you are with a bungle jersey and still a fan....

i wouldn't drink any of that water if you paid me!! especially down near the river...

Nothing shocks me about the Bengals orginization anymore.

Nothing.

yeah duke. I heard about that hot water bs. Well hopefully this year half the team won't be sucking oxygen down on the sidelines half way through the first quarter. Watching that crap will drive you to drinking. I'm sure Marvin(the savior)won't let that happen again.
