Bengals' cryptic tweet has fans wondering

 

CINCINNATI (WXIX) - A Bengals' tweet is creating some buzz on X.

The caption to the tweet itself is nothing more than the eyeball emoji (👀).

So, there is little information from that, but the Bengals did tag Netflix in the post.

The video starts with the logo from the popular Netflix show, “Squid Game.”

From inside Paycor Stadium, lights flash, and a Morse code message appears across the jumbotron and the stadium.

The X post from the Bengals could be nothing more than a promotion for season two of “Squid Game,” which premieres Dec. 26.

It could indicate that a Bengals star might have a cameo appearance in the new season.

The Bengals are the only NFL team to post a video like that on X. So, that likely rules out an advertisement post between the league and the NFL.

One X user theorized the tweet is signaling that Ja’Marr Chase will appear in another Netflix show, “Receivers.”

We will have to wait and see what the tweet ultimately means.

Maybe it's a reference to how we'll be watching other teams in the playoffs

My knowledge of Morse code is nonexistent, but I think it's saying that we are trading Cam Grandy to the Cowboys for Micah Parsons.

 

I could be wrong.

If this is Squid Game-related...

Yeah that does kind of make me wonder why they journo didn't just decode it for the article?  I don't know Morse either but it's pretty basic, it's not like it's the Zodiac cypher.

I wonder how much it cost Netflix to do that

and, while an admitted computer knucklehead,

the programming that went into making the scoreboard

and light display boggles my little pea brain.

As someone who wrote their own signage platform... And did in stadium signage for the Commanders, Ravens, and Nationals among others...

Digital signs liken this are treated like oddly shaped computer monitors. So, someone just had to make a video - knowing which "parts" of the monitor are where. And again, that should easily be controlled by the software. Same for being able to adjust for brightness, etc... This was probably trivial compared to having to ramp up for a gameday experience with live cameras, etc... These systems are also very flexible for all of the other events that happen at stadiums that aren't NFL related. Stadiums have full on TV production facilities in there now.

We estimated that the total bandwidth for the Commanders was 56TB of data sent to computer screens for a 4 hour game. And that was 5-10 years ago. Pixel density keeps getting tighter, and the data overhead is literally becoming the limiting factor. It takes a lot of bandwidth to push an 8K image to a 300' monitor. (Or 6 50' monitors)

FWIW, I used to geek out on the wayfinding signage. The stuff that gets you from the parking lot to your seat efficiently. (Same for hospitals, etc...)

One of the cooler things was AVA - Advanced video analytics. We can tell how many people are walking by the sign, how long they actually pay attention to it, and their sex and age range. So if we have a group of ladies walking by the sign we can put up an ad for the pink jersey, and if it's guys we can put up titties and beer, if it's kids we can put up the Who-Dey fun camp ad...

i used screen cloud for a bit and switched to Yodeck for cost savings, we have 24 tvs in my 4 retail stores, so the $25/mo for screen cloud was brutal. Love the flexability those platforms have, i can rotate image ads, then every 10 rotations show a youtube video, then a video ad, and each day rotate a different tv to play ESPN live all day, schedule sale graphics a month out to show up one day and be gone the next, turn off all tv's at 9:30pm after close, and on at 9:30am for open,. freaked out a new female employee once sh got stuck late with a customer was getting ready to leave and the TV glow lights up the store with the two safety lights, they all went off at once, she didnt know they turned off at all, she was very scared. but being able to deploy stuff to several locations at once is so so so handy

 

my entire post here is pointless and off topic.

Thank you all.  But I'm still trying to figure out how to set a bookmark on Chrome.
