Bengals Fans win Appeal
"We consider this a big victory for the fans," said Janet Abaray, a shareholder in the Cincinnati office of Burg Simpson who represented six fans who sued the Cincinnati Bengals.
The case stems from a brochure sent to fans in 1997 regarding club seats in the new stadium. The brochure explained that buyers would be required to buy a $150 seat license and pick a package that locked in seat prices for six, eight or 10 years. The brochure further explained that if a person didn't continue to buy tickets, the seat license would lapse and the $150 fee would be forfeited.
