In 1990, last time the Bengals won a playoff game, off the top of my head:
41 was President, Saddam Hussein had not yet started the Gulf War, Bill Clinton was governor of Arkansas
Bill Curry was our coach and everybody still liked him, Commonwealth Stadium capacity was about 57,000, still had wooden endzone bleachers
I only had one child
DId not own a PC, if I recall correctly, and damn sure did not have a cell phone
Internet was something I had only vaguely heard about
our office did have a fax machine, on that god awful mimeograph paper that would quickly fade if you didn't immediately go make a copy
Still carried cash for most purchases
