CATCHING BENGALS FEVER
(Mr. CHABOT asked and was given permission to address the House for 1
minute.)
Mr. CHABOT. Mr. Speaker, greater Cincinnati is in the grips of
Bengals fever.
From pep rallies at Paul Brown Stadium, to celebrations at bars and
restaurants, and at home, to wall-to-wall coverage on the nightly news,
everyone is celebrating the Bengals' third trip to the Super Bowl.
In that spirit, the city of Cheviot, on Cincinnati's west side, just
renamed a number of streets after Bengals players. Cheviot residents
will be driving down Joe Burrow Way rather than Harrison Avenue and
Chase Drive instead of Glenmore Avenue.
It reminds me of the last time the Bengals went to the Super Bowl,
back in 1989. Yes, it has been a while. We faced legendary 49ers
quarterback Joe Montana for the second time at the Super Bowl. I was on
the Cincinnati City Council at the time, and Montana Avenue became
Esiason Street--that is Boomer Esiason, the Bengals quarterback--all in
good fun, of course.
Well done, Cheviot. And I will just close with this: Who Dey.
