Bengals' Plan for Week 2 Game vs. Chiefs is Embarrassing

After taking down the Baltimore Ravens to open the season, the Kansas City Chiefs will face off against another very familiar rival in the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 2. KC and Cincy have no shortage of epic battles in their recent history, though the Bengals are dealing with internal issues that have clearly brought the team down to open the campaign.

However, that hasn't stopped the organization from trying to cash in on this matchup and use the Chiefs' excellence for their own personal gain.

The team announced this week it is hosting a watch party at Paycor Stadium for this showdown, which has become more common, especially for big games that are on the road. Yet, what's very unsual is the price; the Bengals are charging a whopping $99 for tickets.

Fans have, rightfully, made Cincinnati hear it after this clear cash grab. Many commenters took issue with the price, saying it'd be cheaper to watch at home, and they'd likely get a better view as well.

What makes the Bengals look even worse for overcharging their own fans is the fact the nearby Tennessee Titans hosted their own watch party for the season opener since the team was in Chicago, and tickets were, get this, free. The only charge was a meager $5 for parking.

This is a downright embarassing look for the Bengals, who've been called out for their clearly greedy tactics. Some fans have even connected the dots and see this as the team's cheap ownership trying to get some extra money to afford the massive extension star wideout Ja'Marr Chase is due for.

Considering how poor Cincinnati played in the opener and how scary the Chiefs' revamped offense looks, it's a good bet anyone attending the Bengals' watch party will go home saddened by another loss and the fact they just blew $100.
