Cincinnati USA CVB May 2007 Familiarization Tour

More in 24 began with a visit to Cincinnati's finest restaurant, Jean Robert at Pigalls. Barrie Perks, VP of Sales and Service, addresses the group, welcoming them to Cincinnati and encouraging them to allow Cincinnati to be host to their organizations' meetings.

Richard, Jean Robert's maitre d', welcomes the guests and describes for them the wonderful and sumptuous meal about to be served.




The master chef himself, Jean Robert, made an appearance. He expressed hope in seeing them again when they return to Cincinnati.



The guests and their hosts left Pigalls on a touring coach to take in the sites of Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky.

From 4-star to 4-way, the guests were treated to Cincinnati's unique style of chili. Five out of five guests gave the chili a thumbs-up, including the one Texan amongst the group.

The mayor of Cincinnati, Mark Mallory, personally greeting the guests and demostrated once again what a gracious host he is.

In a day full of highlights, the guests were not prepared for dinner on the field of the Paul Brown Stadium.



The excitement of the group is summed up in this one photograph.


He was so excited he went to the 50 yard line and made a call to someone to tell them where he was standing. More memorable.


More memorable, indeed!



Each of the honored guests received a personally signed football from Marvin Lewis, the Cincinnati Bengals' head coach.

More in 24!
