NEWPORT, Ky. (WKRC) – Fans flocked to Newport on the Levee for this year’s Jungle Jam, a Bengals-themed festival organized by Bengal Jim and friends. The event featured more than fifty player appearances, autograph signings, a Ben-Gal cheerleader performance, and a variety of merchandise.
“We got 22 Bengal vendors down here. Cincy Hats is here, face painter, band, all kind of fun things. Who Dey is here, lots of fun,” said Bengal Jim, the event organizer.
All proceeds from the event support different charities in Cincinnati. Last year, the event raised more than $40,000 for local charities.
