So my sweet, retired, Cincinnati-obsessed dad was tailgating outside Bristol Speedway for that infamous Reds game a few weeks back when he stumbled on this shirt. He immediately decided it had my name written all over it.

Is it the most wholesome father-daughter gift? Absolutely not. But if there are two things our relationship is built on, it’s Cincinnati sports and crude humor.🧡🖤 Naturally, it’s been declared our lucky shirt for the season and must be worn every game (even if discreetly in public – he didn't realize it was double-sided when he bought it lol)

Game 1 vs. Browns → Shirt was on → WE WON. The early-season curse was finally broken. The shirt officially earned its stripes.

Game 2…I forgot to wear it. Yes, we still won. But our beloved franchise QB got hurt (again 😭).

Haven’t had the heart to tell my dad I slipped. So Bengals fans… is Joe’s toe my fault? Do I need to double up on shirt duty the rest of the season? Who Dey forever (and heal up fast, Joey B🧡)

  1. I’m not a prude and I swear a lot, but I think its low class to wear t-shirts with swears on them in places where kids are reasonably expected to be.

  2. I remember that time I didn’t finish my third beer before halftime and then didn’t eat the cheese coney I’d gotten specifically for that game.

    We lost that game in 2015 and still blame myself. We all have guilt. But I belive you can do better.

  3. What is the “Bitch I’m a Bengal” catchphrase from? I’ve seen the street venders selling these shirts but the reference is lost on me.

  4. I had my then girlfriend watch every single playoff game with me up to the Super Bowl and we decided I should go to my buddies place and watch it without her. My bad guys I’ll do better next time

  5. I guess it’s a little less trashy for a woman than for a man. But, that doesn’t make it not trashy. Wholesome story, though.
