Joe Burrow has found out that going from Baton Rouge to Cincinnati is pretty much a complete 180. But that isn’t necessarily a bad thing.
When talking about how his team has had more success than others avoiding a COVID outbreak, Burrow admitted that there really isn’t too much to do in Cincy other than hang out at home.

Even if Joe Burrow was just making a joke, Cincinnati residents didn’t take too kindly to the comment about their city’s nightlife.
Cincy is my hometown, lived a long time in Miami, FL and now live in DFW. Burrow is spot on. Celeb nightlife (not “avg Joe”) is significantly different in Cincy. Miami, LA, NY, even Chicago or DFW are WAY diff than Cincy.

Wow this is crazy. I wouldn’t want him leading my team in the AFC North for 10 years. Trade! https://t.co/tk4oym7Udx

Joe Burrow's comments about the lack of night life in Cincinnati tell me the kid quarterback doesn't know the town yet. If you haven't found enough adventure by the time the Ludlow Avenue Skyline closes, that's on you, pal.

I think it’s safe to say that a lot of people took Joe Burrow’s comments about Cincinnati nightlife wayyy too seriously. The dude was clearly speaking with tongue-in-cheek.
But anyways, if Burrow’s rise to stardom continues. And he ends up bringing the team back to the postseason, I don’t think anyone will care what comes out of his mouth.
It’s probably best that the QB doesn’t know the nightlife scene out in Cincinnati anyways…
