2013 Spring Game (in Cinci?)

From OSU press release:
Discussions underway for 2013 spring game in Cincinnati Concrete work on Ohio Stadium after 2012 season prompts move

COLUMBUS, Ohio ? Ohio State Department of Athletics officials and those from the Cincinnati Bengals and Hamilton County are in discussions regarding the 2013 Ohio State LiFE Sports Spring Game, presented by Nationwide, being played at 65,535-seat Paul Brown Stadium in Cincinnati. Ohio Stadium will be under renovation next year, prompting the move to another location.

?We are very appreciative to be in discussions with the Cincinnati Bengals,? Director of Athletics Gene Smith said. ?We look forward to continuing our discussions and look forward to an opportunity to bring the Buckeyes into Cincinnati and closer to our Southern Ohio fans.?

The work on Ohio Stadium includes stripping and replacing 1922-era coating and concrete off portions of A and C decks. These are areas that were not restored as part of the Ohio Stadium upgrades project between 1998-2001. Sand and water blasting will commence this December with the resurfacing portion of the project scheduled for the warmer spring and summer months next year.

THE PEOPLE. THE TRADITION. THE EXCELLENCE.

If it must be done, I'm glad it's down here and not Cleveland.

Of course, Cleveland doesn't have the problem with anti OSU morons that Cinci has. I doubt having the spring game here will change anything though.


You guys can just keep your red on and stroll on over to the Reds game too. Perfect transition.

I know its capacity is smaller than Crew stadium, but with temporary seating, I'm sure Scioto Downs could hold a game inside the track.

And maybe they can get Art Schlichter to do commentary, its his favorite place to be, after all!
