of The Scioto Ribber in Portsmouth, Ohio and the surrounding scenery. If you’ve not eat a steak here, you’re not doing life right. Portsmouth is the first city you drive through once you cross the U.S. Grant Bridge on U.S. 23 north from KY. Portsmouth is known for its flood wall murals that span over 2200 feet along the Ohio River, but, did you know it was also home of the Portsmouth Spartans NFL team back in the early 1930s? Yes Portsmouth Ohio had an NFL team from 1930 to 1934 then relocated to Detroit Michigan to become the Detroit Lions. I honestly did not know this until I started doing research on the city. The football stadium you see is Trojan Coliseum which is home to the Portsmouth Trojans and my 39th featured high school football stadium.
