Meet the mayor-elect, cheer the Bengals
Mayor-elect Mark Mallory will take a break from interviewing vice mayor candidates Sunday to watch the Bengals game against the Indianapolis Colts -- and he's inviting Cincinnatians to root along with him.During the first half, he'll be at Willie's Sports Cafe in Westwood, 5054 Glenway Crossing (behind Dick's Sporting Goods). At halftime, he'll take the Norwood Lateral over to Mulligan's Hyde Park Pub, 2680 Madison Road.
Sure, tickets are going for $650 on eBay, but you'd think a mayor-elect might have some connections. "We didn't even try to get tickets, to be honest," said Mallory spokesman Jason Barron. "We wanted to be out with the people."

Post a Comment*Mayor-elect Mark Mallory is one helluva guy.
Not only is he taking advantage of Sunday's Bengals game -- probably the biggest football game Cincinnatians have seen in the last decade -- to honor our hometown team and build some Cincinnati pride, he is using the opportunity to bridge the Eastside-Westside divide while still honoring the Cincinnati Boycott.
The people of Cincinnati sure did make a wise decision on election day!
See, if y'all had voted for Pepper he would have been in a luxury sky box sipping chardonay; not shlepping with the commoners drinking Miller and trying to think fo things to say while looking uncomfortable.
The last time I went to Mulligans was for an informal meeting. I was early and got a beer and watched some baseball. After 15 minutes of being alone, I realized I was there on the wrong damn day.
There could worse place to hang out, though. They have plenty of TVs and Smithwick's on tap.
Bengals will win, 24-20.
What boycott? Did someone tell the other 60,000 that will be there about this? What about getting the TV network not to broadcast? Maybe try and get Chad Johnson or any others not to cross the picket line?
(oh yeah - what picket line...)
Of course, Willie's is a Republican hangout; Mulligan's is a Democratic joint.
If Pepper had won, his sycophant suckup supporter Berding would have given him the keys to the kingdom for the day, and Pepper would have accepted.
I don't remember Berding making an endorsement in the mayor's race.
I think Berding endorsed himself.
Wilkinson called it(see quote below) & we all knew it since everywhere that Pepper went, Berding tagged along.

Voters made it clear they want change in city politics
By Howard Wilkinson
Enquirer staff writer
"Every one of the new council members had stock lines decrying the divisiveness and "chaos" at city hall; and all four were close to Pepper during the campaign, although Berding never formally endorsed his candidacy."
If Pepper were Mayor, the Bengals would have won against the Colts.
Tru- Pepper would have helped the Bengals win on Sunday and get to the Superbowl.
Pepper could have used Daddy's money to throw the game-what a concept, a strategy he's tried to use before but this election, gee, it just didn't work. I'm guessing Daddy Pepper's coming back to town to be able to twist arms in person to get baby boy elected to SOMETHING.
