Jackie Treehorn Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 I'm referring to the party they have at Paul Brown for season ticket holders to watch the first round of the draft. Anyone here going or gone before? I've got tickets on the way but am still undecided on whether it's something worth checking out or if a bar would be a more suitable place to watch. Any input is appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been or have gone to several bars over the years and it just isn't that big of interest in the places I've gone. I didn't get tickets to their party because the reality of it is. It's going to be couple hours of TV time before any bengals action and I think the entertainment of the event is hearing the interaction of the commentators etc. It's a made for TV event. I think it's best from the couch, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mongo Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 I'm guessing Raydogg is the one to ask. He tends to go to the different events. I'd lean towards TV, beer, and Go-Bengals.com as the best bet, but Ray may say otherwise. If it's good food, and a bunch of players will be there, PBS might be fun.

I did not reserve my tickets although I would love to go based upon the fact I've never been to the draft party. The food, the players, the atmosphere, etc... I still have the draft party on my list of things to do but this year is most likely going to be a pass. Whomever does go make sure to take lots of pictures and represent Go-Bengals.com proudly.

|RayDoggBengal| Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 If I lived in Cincy I would go. It's one of the best places to get the players to sign stuff without the crowd. In the past Marvin have taken questions from the fans after the pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigris Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 How much was it for a ticket? How many people attend? Crowded? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] tickets were free, they sent out an email to season ticket holders. You must pay for food though. As far as how many attend and if it's crowded, I'm not sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BengalBeotch Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 I've been three times and hung with Raydogg the first year I went... I liked it, they had a few players, door prizes, you pay "game prices" for food and drink, nothing crazy but my sister and I are planning on attending again this year....Marvin does come down and talk after the picks, kind of cool to feel up close.

[/quote] One of the perks of living out in NYC. I'll be at Radio City soaking this in! If you've been, it's a pretty awesome atmosphere. Fans of all teams just enjoying talking to each other about football. Also, Giants and Jets fans harassing each other. Awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unleashed Posted April 24, 2012 Report Share Posted April 24, 2012 Does anyone know how to find out what time the 17th pick was made last year? I know they get 15 mins per pick, just wanted to know the latest time I could leave work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
