The Bengals Jerk line debuted last night and because there’s no call waiting or voicemail, there were only 100 logged calls. The majority of the people just wanted to see if the jerk line worked. A couple of people called to complain that Jerome Bettis (did you know he was from Detroit and then played the Super Bowl in detroit?) was in the stadium. One was an actual complaint that required a security guard to intervene.
The Bengals director of stadium development said the jerk line worked but that they’d evaluate the effectiveness after the second regular season home game. “If 90 percent of the calls we’re getting are prank calls, we need to re-evaluate this.”
