CINCINNATI — For only the second time this season, the Bengals will have a sellout home crowd. The timing couldn’t be any better.
The Bengals (9-6) face off against the Baltimore Ravens (11-4) on Sunday at Paul Brown Stadium. A win puts Cincinnati into the AFC playoffs as a wild-card team.
After selling only 41,273 tickets for last Saturday’s home game with Arizona, the team promoted a two-for-one offer for season ticket holders in hopes of packing the 65,000-seat Paul Brown Stadium.
The game will be televised locally on WKRC-TV Local 12, and on WHIO-TV on Channel 7 in Dayton at 4:15 p.m.
The Bengals drew only a little more than 70 percent of the stadium’s capacity through its first seven home games.
“Our fans have made a tremendous response this week to our sales efforts, and we thank the entire community for its support of the Bengals,” said Katie Blackburn, the team’s executive vice-president in a statement. “We’re pleased that the game will be on television for everyone, and we look forward to the fans at Paul Brown Stadium giving us a great home field advantage for a very important game against Baltimore.”
