Bengals announce Sundays game vs Giants is blacked out

Per Giants 101 on FB.

Sounds like any fans in the OH area will need to adjust their plans to see Sundays game...

They're more Buckeyes fans anyway.

I definitely feel bad for the area fans to be honest.
That would really suck to constantly wonder whether or not your team is going to be televised week-to-week.

Actually, wait about 3 years and our local Jests fans will probably be in the same predicament.

One comment on FB caught my attention:

Love him or hate him, Ochocinco would buy those tickets to make sure those games weren't blacked out in Cincy. Sucks for Giants fans out that way.

lol...so true.

Road tripping it out there tomorrow.....still trying to find out where to sit as there are a ton of tickets still available.....

Think them blacking out the game will drive ticket prices up or down by the end of the day?

Not sure what the rules are. If the blackout can be reversed based on ticket sales thru Sunday then Id say obviously the prices will go way way down. But if the blackout is set in stone, I don't see prices moving.

Anyone know what the rules/laws are when something is declared blacked out? Can it be reversed?

Sad. Hey NJ / NY Giants fans, time to make a weekend trip and get away from the damage again. Although, not sure there is too much to do in Cincy.
