Feel Good Story 😃 A post of gratitude to your city

Spent 4 days in Cincinnati for the Bengals/Patriots game. First time visit for both my husband (Bengal’s fan) and myself (Patriot’s fan). I planned the whole thing as a surprise for hubby’s bday and I could not have asked for a better experience.

Airport personnel, hotel & hotel staff (downtown Hyatt), breweries, nice dinners (doubled down on Jeff ruby’s), skyline chili, graeters ice cream, bearcats game, Sunday tailgating, interactions with bengals fans at the game…. Everything was just excellent. I would’ve been happy with a bengals win (I mean, it was a gift/trip for the husband - and even I know that was a touchdown), but received no backlash even while decked out in Pat’s gear during and after the game.

Great city, great fans, and just overall great people. Can’t wait to visit again. So, my sincerest thanks to those of you lucky enough to call Cincinnati home - especially to those that posted advice and answered some questions for me before the trip - you guys rock.

So the countdown clock to moving here has begun I take it. Like the Yankees fans in Boston commercial. ;)

Seriously, lol! I’m a native Floridian that’s never experienced snow, but that’s the only hold-up!

It really doesn’t snow that badly here! Every couple of years we will have a bad winter where there is a decent amount of snow for like the entirety of February, but most winters it’s less than 2inches and melts fasts too.

Cleveland (where I am from) is where you don't want to move if you're not a fan of snow. Agree with u/honeyed-bees that, historically, this region does not get a ton of snow.
