Bengals game a sellout; how to get free tickets
Get in line at Kroger if you want free tickets to Sunday’s Bengals game.
Sunday’s home game against Tampa Bay is officially a sellout and will be on TV, but there are still tickets available, the Bengals’ ticket office announced today.
Kroger will be distributing Bengals tickets in conjunction with the purchase of something “Pink” at select Kroger stores (see below). The first 50 people in line at the designated stores who purchase something “Pink” will receive two tickets to Sunday’s game.
Proceeds for almost all “Pink” items in Kroger stores support breast cancer research.
Kroger-Bengals Ticket Giveaway Locations-Times:
Saturday, 10/9 3 p.m. Beavercreek Kroger, 3195 Dayton-Xenia Rd, Beavercreek, OH
Saturday, 10/9 2 p.m. Middletown Kroger Marketplace, 3420 Towne Blvd, Middletown, OH
Saturday, 10/9 3 p.m. Newport Kroger Marketplace, 130 Pavilion Parkway, Newport, KY
Saturday, 10/9 at 3 p.m. Ferguson Rd. Kroger, 2310 Ferguson Rd., Cincinnati, OH
Fox19, Kroger and Fifth Third Bank led the way in helping ensure the blackout would be lifted, and the Bengals purchased tickets for distribution to local military families.
The game is the club’s 55th consecutive sellout in regular season and postseason play.
If you don’t get free tickets, you can purchase them by phone through the Bengals Ticket Hotline at 513-621-8383 (TDTD). Additionally, tickets may be ordered at any time today through Saturday on www.ticketmaster.com.
Also, tickets may be purchased in person at the Bengals ticket office at Paul Brown Stadium on game day beginning at 9 a.m.

Um, can someone explain to me how this can be a sell-out when they are advertising tickets are still for sale??? Does’t a “sell-out”, by definition, mean there are no tickets available?

Sell-Out means they reached the set goal of ticket sales. Its not literally SOLD OUT. If their goal was 80% and they got 85% then its a sell-out. It is practically impossible to sell every single seat. Not many people want to get a seat by themselves so often you will see a few empty solo seats toward the top.

With the way they play, all the tickets should be free.

Imao: Go someplace that has NFL Sunday Ticket and they’ll have the Browns game. I know the South Park Tavern in my neighborhood has all the NFL games.

@AM…even so, I find it pathetic that they tout their sell-out streak when it seems like every game in recent memory a corporate partner has had to step up and buy out the remaining tickets to make it so. I’m all for giving tickets away to charities and military families, but when you have to do this week in and week out to preserve a streak that means absolutely nothing, that’s pretty bad. I’m sure, in the end, it comes down to the Brown family wanting to suck as much money from the city, companies, and people of Cincinnati as they possibly can.

I would like to point out, the Steelers are always “sold out” and don’t have to give a way tickets. How sad for Cincinnati that their fans don’t want to attend a game. Way to show support for your team. Boo-dey!

I WOULD LIKE TO SAY THIS WHEN THERE IS AN EVENT WHERE THERE IS A LARGE AMOUNT OF PEOPLE,YOU HAVE TO PUT A CAP ON THE AMOUNT OF PEOPLE WHO CAN ATTEND IS EVENT FOR SAFETY REASON, SO WHEN IT SAY THE MAX AMOUNT OF PEOPLE CAN BE 85% THEN YOU CAN GET AWAY WITH 90% TO BE SAFE.

Its considered a sellout if all nonpremium tickets are sold. That means that club seats don’t count in that total. Also Mikey can purchase remaining nonpremium seats for 34% of the face value to insure the game is televised. Thats all that matters (advertising $), not the streak.

Atleast browns fans are loyal to their team. Bengals fans only wear their crap when they are winning!
