HoosierCat Posted May 31, 2009 Report Posted May 31, 2009 Per the report, a winning Bengals lottery ticket would include cash as well as potential prizes, including tickets or jerseys.No, no, no, no, no. The Bengals lottery ticket works like this:Hamilton County taxpayers pay for the manufacture of the tickets.When you buy one, Mike Brown gets 100% of the sale price.There are no winners. Quote

That counts as a winner, right? Quote
blueridge Posted June 4, 2009 Report Posted June 4, 2009 As if making money is a bad thing. But before excoriating Mike Brown as a money-grubbing tightwad, please remember that he has refused to sell the naming rights to the stadium named in honor of his father. That decision reflects well of the man. Quote

I like showing some honor to his father in that capacity and would far rather that than the "www.squirrelsh*t.com stadium" or some nonsense like that. Quote
