Straight Hucklebuck Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 22 minutes ago, SirAndrew said: I think you’re right, it’s more of a status thing than an actual statement on a city having nothing to do. These guys want the LA or Miami scene for status. Little do they know that most of the grown up world is discovering life can be awesome outside of LA, NY, and Miami, and are actually leaving those areas in droves. The coastal cities aren’t as hip as they once were, but maybe they still are in the jock world, idk. Agree, everyone always brings up NY, LA, and Miami, but there’s 27 other NFL cities. Not everyone can be on one of five teams. Well it gets to American culture, what do we like to do? For most average Americans it doesn’t go much farther than “shopping” and restaurants. That would be my question back to you, when people say “stuff to do” what do they mean? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FilthyBeast Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 I'll never understand why some of these players make public comments like this. Even if true it will ultimately alienate fans who are touchy over this type of thing especially if/when the team struggles. The reality is these guys have more than enough money to afford multiple homes in different states and live in a warmer weather are in the offseason which most players in cities like Buffalo, Cincy, GB, etc do anyway. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the part they can't say out loud. This is the only answer I can come up with. How many people have the time of their lives in college, yet attend a school in the middle of nowhere? I try to put myself in the shoes of a twenty something athlete, and I don’t understand why they wouldn’t be having a great time anywhere in this country, I know I could. Cities like Buffalo or Cincy probably have thousands of bars and clubs in the region. These dudes could walk into any of those places, and everyone would think it’s the greatest thing ever. These guys aren’t looking for art galleries, they’re looking for parties. Rock stars used party and have the time of their lives in every city. These dudes are just bent they don’t get to be on a social media with a Kardashian wannabe by their side. They can mostly be found in LA and Miami, which are the cities pro athletes seem to be saying are better than where they play.

CincyBillsFan Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 6 hours ago, Augie said: I spent my college years in Cincinnati, and before the pandemic I’d still go back once a year for a Xavier basketball game every year and to meet up with old friends. The Over the Rhine area used to be dangerous, but it’s hopping now with all kinds of breweries and bars. They are packed with 20-somethings having a great time. Across the river there are some great options. I still like the character of Mt Adams, Hyde Park and Mt Lookout. No, it’s not Miami, NYC or LA, but there are only a handful of those cities in the country. It’s not Green Bay, either. . Mt Adams is fantastic and OTR is jumping and with the addition of the brand new 25,000 seat soccer stadium in that neighborhood there are even more options. 6 hours ago, Jauronimo said: To be fair you're also not a 20 year old celebrity, millionaire.

My must list when I get back includes Zip’s in Mt Lookout and Arthur’s in Hyde Park. Both locations have other nice options, but those are “my places”. Dana’s near Xavier is also a game day stop, but I can’t exactly push that unless you have a generous nostalgia influence, if you know what I mean. (College dive bar….and it’s a pretty deep dive!) I have a buddy who worked at Jungle Jim’s briefly. I hear it’s really something! We’ve lived with Publix for decades which is like a Hampton Inn, reliable but unspectacular. The family LOVED hitting Wegman’s when were were in WNY for the opener. It was “an event” compared to Publix. Next trip to Cincinnati I’ll try to hit Jungle Jim’s just to see it. EDIT: Great!
