With the Cincinnati Bengals' lack of prime-time games, second-year quarterback Joe Burrow hasn't had the opportunity many others have had to shout out their school or hometown during introductions for an NBC Sports NFL broadcast.

Before the start of the Super Bowl, Southeast Ohio celebrated when Burrow proudly said, "Joe Burrow - Athens High School."

The Foundation for Appalachian Ohio reported last week that donations of $9, $31 and $56 throughout the Bengals' playoff run - representing Burrow's jersey number (9), the number of years (31) since the Bengals had won a postseason game before Burrow led Cincinnati to wins against the Raiders, Titans and Chiefs, and Super Bowl LVI (56) - have bolstered the Joe Burrow Hunger Relief Fund to more than $1.5 million.

Athens, home of Ohio University, is rooting for Burrow. Ohio University tweeted this out earlier today with pictures of the graffiti wall.
