Cincinnati Bell Connector Hosts Millionth Ride Prize Giveaway Celebration
Friday the 13th was a lucky day for Cincinnati Bell Connector streetcar passenger Angie Jolevski. She was selected as the millionth ride prize package winner after boarding the streetcar at the Cincinnati Cyclones station at The Banks.
The Cincinnati Bell Connector streetcar is expected to reach one million rides in the next few days, just a little more than a year and a half after opening on Sept. 9, 2016. In celebration of the coming milestone, Jolevski was greeted with music, mascots, confetti and plenty of great prizes, including a one-year Platinum “ride anytime” pass courtesy of Cincinnati Bell.
The celebration was made possible thanks to the generous support of event partners The Carol Ann and Ralph V. Haile, Jr./U.S. Bank Foundation, Cincinnati Bell, AGAR, Downtown Cincinnati Inc. and the City of Cincinnati.
