What It's Like To Be A Cincinnati Sports Fan

The Bengals have Cincinnati feeling all different types of ways every season, but if you are from Cincinnati, you know you can only be a Bengals fan or else you can leave (especially if you are a Steelers fan).


Here's what it looks like to be a Bengals Fan:


Getting ready for the season has you like:



When the season starts and things are actually going well and everyone's just like:


Then a Browns fan tries to tell you they are the better Ohio team:



But suddenly an important player gets injured and you just sit there and think about how bad life is like:


If you are a true Bengals fan you know we have high hopes the Bengals season will go well, but when they start going downhill again, the let-down is harsh:


But then you realize that at least you aren't a steelers fan:



At this point, all the non-loyal Bengals fans come out acting like one bad game makes us the worst team in the NFL like:


But all the true fans are standing back like this, even when we don't get past the play-offs. Maybe next year.



When the season ends and spring rolls around, it's a whole new ballgame (literally) and the Reds got you feeling whole new type of way:


Opening Day is basically a holiday for Cincy sports fans. You have to go all out in Reds' apparel because we just love the redlegs so much.


When you finally get to the ballpark and you spend an obnoxious amount on Skyline coneys because is it really a baseball game if you don't?


You also spend an obnoxious amount of money on a single beer because what's a baseball game without a nice brew in your hand to cool you off?


And after a couple nice brews these are your seven favorite words to hear:


Then when the summer is over everyones just like, "Wait, the Reds are still playing? What?"


But no matter what, you will be a Reds fan for life

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
