"I can smell the cigars now": Bengals fans hyped as franchise debuts shiny new locker room

The Cincinnati Bengals are ready to take on the 2024 season in full force. As such, the franchise unveiled its brand-new locker room. And the ‘Who Dey?’ nation showcased their support for the new locker room.

Earlier this year, the Players Association held a vote regarding multiple aspects of their lives with their franchises. The Cincinnati Bengals were ranked 26th out of the 32 teams. The players voted their previous locker room ‘D+.’ However, in the next year’s voting, those grades are bound to be changed.

The Bengals took to X (previously Twitter) to debut their new state-of-the-art locker room:

“CRIBS: Bengals Edition #RuleTheJungle”

Seeing the new locker room, fans wondered if this was the missing piece in their success puzzle. The ‘Who Dey?’ nation has started dreaming about the Super Bowl based on the new locker room.

“I can smell the cigars now, let's go WIN IT ALL BABY #WHODEY”

“I’m glad they got their outlets. Now let’s win the Super Bowl.”

“Now that’s a Locker Room!! The Lombardi Trophy will look GREAT in there!! Our Guys deserved this and much more!!”, one fan wrote.

Some fans thanked the team’s owner Mike Brown for splurging cash on this venture and leaving no stone unturned.

“Oh y’all spent MONEY money”, wrote one fan.

“Mike B opened up that wallet”, wrote another fan.

A few fans also thought about the players and the massive upgrade they’ll be receiving this season.

“Damn, this looks nasty! I bet the players are/will be pumped”, a fan said.

“What a massive improvement. Well done”, another said.

Joe Burrow is impressed with new locker room

Not only the fans, but star QB Joe Burrow couldn’t help himself from being impressed with the new locker room. Burrow said this will lead to many better things in the future, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

“It’s sick”, Burrow said. “The more we continue to invest in stuff like this, the more comfortable the players are going to be. We’re going to love coming to work. I’m really happy with it. It’s quite an upgrade. Credit to ownership for putting this all together.”

With Joe Burrow leading the charge and fans in unison, the entire roster must also be in awe of their new locker room at Paycor Stadium.
