I was at that game.......

Bengals were still in the grip of a decade+ of futility and there was, maybe, 45,000 people there. The Bengals got out of the gate quick and hit an early field goal, and you would have thought that they were on their way to winning the Super Bowl. By the end of the third quarter, those Bengal fans (including my little brother) all looked like they had skipped their depression meds. It was great.
