Bengals Fans Who Spot Bad Behavior Can Call Hot Line
Pittsburgh Tribune Review ^ | August 8, 2006 | AP

CINCINNATI (AP) -- Cincinnati Bengals fans annoyed by bad behavior in the stands can now report it by cell phone.

The hot line number should be easy to remember -- (513) 381-JERK.

Fans using too much foul language will get a warning from stadium security. Those who continue could be ejected and have their season tickets and personal seat licenses taken away. More serious offenses could lead to arrest.

The team doesn't want to become the "curse police," but expects fans to behave themselves, said Bob Bedinghaus, the Bengals' director of development for Paul Brown Stadium.

Yeah this won't be abused like Farrah Faucet in the Burning Bed. "See that guy wearing with the opposing team's colors, he said 'F' to an old lady."

Hmph! Houston doesn't need anything like this. We're too well-behaved.

We just need a football team...

Yeah, it'd help if we actually had something to get lathered up about, wouldn't it? :)

I can only imagine the rush of calls when the Bengals play poorly and fans call in on the offense or defense or both.

Especially this year's Bengals team. The police are rounding them up as fast as they can. (Disclaimer - Cincinnati native and life long Bengal hater, so I am enjoying the nightly Bengals on the Blotter update).

Go Colts!

Is there anyone who seriously believes that Cincinnati is a better place to live than Cleveland?

I've come to find out that most people in Cincy do believe just that....

I prefer Columbus myself....

Well, if anyone needs open heart surgery you can take them to that world famous "Cincinnati Clinic".

The McConnell Heart Hospital (Riverside Methodist) and Ross Heart Hospital (OSU) are perfectly fine facilities, right here in Columbus.

You'd go to Covington. They have a decent hospital there I believe....

As for columbus, my first solid memories as a kid was living on Long Island. I just don't consider Columbus a big city, so I'm comfortable there :)

Heck no. Every Raider fan understands that it's easier to THROW the cell phone than USE it.

i am from Pittsburgh and a Steeler fan, but i understand that Cleveland, that northwestern SUBURB of Pittsburgh, has their own team called the Browns, and they get lathered up on occasion...
