The stadium’s current elliptical shape makes it hard to enclose, Hamilton County Administrator Jeff Aluotto said. And even if such a stadium attracts big events, such as the NCAA Final Four or the Super Bowl, the huge economic impact of those events will not pay for the borrowing needed to construct a dome.

Bingo

Same. I like their seasonal imperial IPAs but a standard one would be nice too.

Basically- it’s getting more crowded and will only get more so once the Liberty+Elm project finishes. The lower 1.25/hour rate is a better look than garage parking that starts at 3/hour.

Makes sense to me, especially after they completed that new garage.

Personally most looking forward to Melltone Beer Project. Great space and I have great hope for their beer. Wish they had been selling that instead of food for Blink.

Thought the same. Really enjoyed the Cincinnatus one myself.

That’s the hope. If we’re going to do it at least make it worth it for the city.

Oof. That is quite bad. Our bus rides were easy in comparison but we’re in the city.

We live in the city and still take the bus. I can’t imagine trying to park down there. It is absolutely packed everywhere.

And yes- I felt like the last one was the worst. So here’s hoping.

This is all pretty foolish if you ask me. A dome would be super expensive. I think it’s about time we stop throwing good money after bad.

And as for an arena- only go forward if studies show it will more than likely AT LEAST make back what we put into it. Ideally more.

It really is a great establishment.

Kind of did myself. Flew under the radar but another few weeks to build up some interest.

I think the downfall of it hasn’t helped. At least in my opinion it’s gotten steadily worse each iteration.

Good but brief article.

We see the issue. But this cheap ass FO won’t do a damn thing to fix it. Putting new paint on the walls while the foundation crumbles.

Maybe they’ll do something before I die. Either of old age or agony of having to watch us careen from rebuild to rebuild without hope in between.

I agree with this article. He’s not the real issue. Maybe one of them but not the only one by far.

And how dumb- just let him finish it out. What good does it do firing him with 5 games left? Just reads like an asshole move by the FO. Which given the assholes at the top, why should we be surprised.

Reactions from both Bengals and commissioners.

This is absolutely absurd and should be laughed out of the room. No more taxpayer money for billionaires!

I enjoy it. It’s not a huge event but it usually gets me out to a bar to have just a bit more fun than I would otherwise.
