State of the Bengals LIVE at Fifty West
The Growler · with Paul Dehner Jr.
The Growler is coming to Fifty West! Join Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic and the Growler crew for live, in-person State of the Bengals shows right in the Fifty West beer garden.
Grab a beer, pull up a seat, and watch the show unfold live as Paul and crew break down the Bengals season, tackle the latest storylines, and talk all things Who Dey. Every show is free, family-friendly, and open to everyone.
We're hosting four shows throughout the season, alternating between our Deerfield and Wooster Pike locations to spread out the crowds. Find the date and spot that works for you below.
What to Expect
Each show features a segment with a surprise guest (or guests) from the Bengals orbit — a player, coach, staffer, former player, media member, or any other interesting figure with a unique point of view on the team. Come down to the event to find out who shows up!
Attendees can win prizes, ask off-the-record questions, share stories, or just hang out, talk ball, and have a blast with the Growler crew.
The season kickoff show features a bevy of Cincinnati sports media members offering behind-the-scenes observations, hot takes, and predictions about the upcoming season. Afterward, stick around to watch Rams–49ers from Australia, starting at 8:40 PM.
Shows kick off live at 7:00 PM. Come early, grab some food and drinks, and join us for a night of Bengals talk in the beer garden. More details to come as each show gets closer.
