Bengals + Browns + Beer: A reporter for the Cincinnati Enquirer has a message for fans: "You don't live in Cleveland. You live in Cincinnati. So don't be a jerk when the Bengals host the Browns today at Paul Brown Stadium." Beer bottles aren't the only thing that drunk and disorderly fans let fly. "Some people 'just turn around in their seats -- if they were in the upper deck or in the top row -- and pee into the seating bowl area.'"
This is what happens when you get a bunch of fans who have no personal values or beliefs and allow them in a football stadium. When the beer begins to flow all restraint is lost. Although rowdiness is not limited to the US, it is a sad comment on the state of our society when children (or anybody else) has to be exposed to boorish behavior.

You don't live in Cleveland. You live in Cincinnati. that is direct quote from Sam Wyche, when he got on the mic at a Bengals game years ago, after the fans were throwing all kinds of objects on the field

And it is credited to Wyche, right there in the article.

Cut the Bengals fans some slack. Actually going to the stadium and watching the team is a new thing for them.
