Will Bengals agree to music venue near Paul Brown if tailgaters get game-day concerts?

Hamilton County commissioners want a new riverfront concert venue built next to Paul Brown Stadium, but the Bengals' approval may not come cheap. Several bargaining chips are on the table: Stadium upgrades, extending the Bengals contract beyond 2026, game day concerts for tailgaters and building a new domed practice facility for the team. In an interview with WCPO , Hamilton County Commission President Todd Portune said negotiations with Bengals owners have been very positive and "are coming to a close," but the dispute over where to build the music venue has opened a broader discussion about the Bengals' future in Cincinnati. "We're taking advantage of this opportunity to raise a variety of issues with the Bengals," Portune said.
