The nickname Porkopolis was attributed to Cincinnati USA around 1835. At that time, the city was the nation’s primary hog packing center and herds of pigs often traveled the streets. The Flying Pig Marathon and the Big Pig Gig are named in part because of the historical importance of the pig industry to Cincinnati USA.
Yes! There are many Uniquely Cincinnati USA options, but a few that have put us on the map include: Cincinnati Style Chili, Montgomery Inn Barbeque Sauce, Goetta, and Graeters Ice Cream.
There are a variety of accommodations to choose from on both sides of the Ohio River ranging from budget to full service.
Many would say any day all year; however, there are some attractions and events best experienced during one of Cincinnati USA's five official seasons: Spring, Summer, Fall, Holidays and Winter. For example, sports are at their peak on hot summer nights. Catch a Cincinnati Reds baseball game at the Great American Ballpark on the Ohio riverfront and then stroll next door to the Christian Moerlein Brewery. Fall's spectacular foliage and colors are breathtaking from a BB Riverboat cruise in September. The animals at the Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Gardens are most active and engaging during morning hours. You get the picture!
