In May, the Cincinnati Bengals agreed with Hamilton County on a memorandum of understanding ahead of the June 30th deadline to work out a new lease for Paycor Stadium. That seemed to be a positive sign for the two sides to come to an agreement, until things changed.
Tom Gabelman, the attorney who has represented Hamilton County for nearly 30 years, was replaced after a May 15th vote. He has played a role in all of the deals for the stadium since it opened and now that he has been replaced, it seems to change things in the Bengals’ eyes.
