Bengals fan camping on roof of his restaurant until team wins
A Cincinnati Bengals fan is going to extreme measures to show his frustration with the team.
Jeff Lanham will be living in a tent on the roof of his restaurant, the Hog Rock Cafe, in Milan, Indiana, until the Bengals get their first win of the season, Tessa Ditirro of WKRC reports. He will only leave the roof to use the restroom, deal with business commitments, and attend Bengals tailgates.
"Well, 1991 Wildman Walker did it, and I was drunk in a bar one night and said something I shouldn't have said, and this is where I'm at," Lanham said.
Nice tent right?! But...you’ll never guess where it is! I have that story you don’t want to miss tonight on @Local12 pic.twitter.com/4PA8cemED0

The Bengals fell to 0-5 on the season with a 26-23 loss to the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday. They'll next face the Baltimore Ravens on the road, and Lanham is hopeful they'll come away with a win.
"They're going to beat Baltimore," he said. "They have to."
