Bengals, National City Looking for Exceptional Breast Cancer Survivors
The Bengals and National City are teaming up to honor breast cancer survivors before the September 28 game vs. the Cleveland Browns at Paul Brown Stadium. This is the fourth consecutive year the Bengals and National City have partnered to honor breast cancer survivors.
Forty survivors will be chosen to participate in a pregame ceremony honoring the strength and courage of all breast cancer survivors. Each survivor will receive two free tickets to the game and, with their guest, will be invited to attend a special reception at Paul Brown Stadium the Thursday before the game.

The nomination process will close on Friday, August 22.
Hall | The pregame ceremony is part of National City's ongoing "Real Men Wear Pink" campaign promoting breast cancer awareness. This year, the campaign will feature Bengals Head Coach Marvin Lewis and defensive back Leon Hall, who is returning for his second year as a team representative.
"There are two million breast cancer survivors in America - enough to fill Paul Brown Stadium 30 times over," said Lewis. "The survivors we're honoring are a small handful of those who command our respect and admiration."
In addition to the pregame ceremony, the Bengals and National City will ask fans to "Bring a Buck" to the Browns game to aid in the fight against breast cancer. Last year, Bengals fans donated more than $28,000 as a result of the "Bring a Buck" fundraising drive.
The "Real Men Wear Pink" campaign is a small part of National City's comprehensive program to fight breast cancer. Through the sale of its Diamond Edition checking and credit card products, a portion of each transaction goes to the National Breast Cancer Foundation, with special incentive contributions during the month of October. Since inception, the Diamond Edition products have enabled National City to donate more than $2.5 million to the Foundation, whose mission is to save lives by raising awareness of breast cancer through education and providing mammograms for those in need.
