Cincinnati Bengals
The Cincinnati Bengals, founded by Paul Brown, has a very interesting story to becoming a franchise. The team was founded in 1968, after Paul Brown was fired from his job as head coach of the Cleveland Browns and then given a chance to own a football team in Cincinnati. There are still plenty of Cincinnati Bengals merchandise around with Paul Brown’s likeness in their trademark orange and black.
One of the most recognizable Bengals is Hall of Famer Anthony Munoz. His number 78 Cincinnati Bengals jerseys are still one of the top memorabilia sellers. Quarterback turned Coach Ken Anderson led the Bengals to their two Super Bowl appearances in the 80’s against the superstars of the San Francisco 49’ers. There are many Cincinnati Bengals sweatshirts available celebrating that win. Boomer Esiason, another Bengal quarterback to still be in the limelight, will often regale viewers and listeners with stories of his time with the Bengals. He has been seen autographing Cincinnati Bengals Hats that were for sale. He has been often noted as a gracious veteran of the game.
You will still find Cincinnati Bengals jackets and other memorabilia for sale with many logos and phrases, for sale in authorized NFL retail.
