Bengals vs. Browns on local TV, but tickets still available
The Battle of Ohio at Paul Brown Stadium is a sellout, but the Bengals have a ways to go before selling out their final 2 home games.
According to the Cincinnati ticket office, the game is the club’s 50th consecutive sellout in regular season and postseason play, and it will be aired live on CBS television affiliates in the Bengals’ home market of Cincinnati, Dayton and Lexington, Ky.
Though the blackout has been lifted, a limited number of single and partial-view seats remain available, and more than 6500 tickets remain available for each of the season’s final two home games — on Dec. 6 vs. Detroit and on Dec. 27 vs. Kansas City, according to a press release from the Bengals.
“We thank our fans for responding to our successful season by selling out the Cleveland game,” said ticket sales manager Andrew Brown. “But it’s clear we will need strong sales from this point forward to sell out for the Lions and Chiefs. We are working hard to achieve that end and hope that we can fill the stadium for our final two home games in the push for the playoffs.”
The Bengals have not had a regular season or postseason home game blacked out for local TV since Nov. 9, 2003.

Please, please black it out. The Bengals should want it blacked out too as terible as they are playing.

gave up long ago…are you watching the same team I am? The only Bengals that played terrible were the ones that played this past weekend, and that was only a few of them at most. You MUST be a Brown’s fan who hasn’t flipped on our renewed Bengals this year.

Join us at the game. 53 degrees partly sunny is great weather for a late November football game. The battle of OHIO is always a special event. Bengals have a history of stumbling at home against the Brows when they are a prohibitive favorite, noting could be worse then their second half mess in Oakland.

I agree with “Seriously.” All you’re doing by going is giving more money to Scrooge (Mike Brown). We had season tickets since Nippert and gladly gave them up a few years ago. Until he gets out of town, I won’t be back.

Do these partial view seats still cost $63. If the bengals had some $30-$40 seats they would not have these problems

Great, now I have to watch this game. As a Browns’ fan how much more abuse can I take.

My deepest condolences to the Clowns fans who I am sure were hoping for the game to be blacked out.

At least there are still plenty of people who still support the Browns. Watch if Cincy screws up this season, all the bangwagon Ben-Gal fans will go back into their holes until something positive happens. Somebody with some sense, please tell me that’s not true.

Amazing how Bungle fans now tell everyone how great a fan they are. When your team was crap for the past 15 years, you woldn’t go near their games. Now you talk big. Just wait - you’ll be back where you belong before very long. One more hit to Carson Palmer’s knee and you’re back fighting for the basement with the Browns. BTW, why did the Bungles sign the ex-Ohio State defensive back today? He doesn’t have a criminal record.

Might as well have blacked it out. They have the signal scrambled, making unwatchable.
