When did Bootsy Collins become Mr. Cincinnati (no offense to Mr. Tarbell)

I'm not complaining; I'm just noticing. Bootsy Collins is everywhere nowadays, especially when it concerns the Bengals. There's a fab music video playing on the PBS big screen right now, featuring Bootsy dancing and prancing on Fountain Square. There's also a guy in a No. 32 jersey, but I don't think it's Rudi Johnson (he's No. 32, right?)

Personally, I think Bootsy's great. And if he loves Cincinnati that much, keep singing and dancing, man. That's the thing about this city. It's big but small enough that you can make a real name for yourself with passion, talent and effort.

...Speaking of musical talent, the Ohio State marching band (is that The Ohio State or the Ohio State?) is about to take the field. Mewonders if they'll refuse to yield when the teams come out of the locker rooms.
