The return of the red helmet in 2022?
Bills fan since 87 replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I was so excited for throw backs... back then, and then they wore those. I believe the first time was in a game full of FGs vs Houston? -
The return of the red helmet in 2022?
Bills fan since 87 replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Like everyone else I'd be OK with the red helmet once or twice a year with the 90's unis. Currently we are almost perfection (also a standing Buffalo fan when we do the throwbacks they are the best uniforms in all of sports). You don't think they'd ever match the red helmets with the red pajamas? That would be horrible. -
Kind of an odd topic here. I was wondering what people thought the future of NFL broadcast overseas might be. Especially in South America. My wife is Peruvian and someday we intend to retire there. I've been to Peru many times and a few bars in Lima have the "Sunday Ticket" but it is not like ours, it does not give access to every game, rather about half the games each Sunday (but all primetime) and I don't believe it's an option in home. With the NFL fishing more games in Europe every season (Madrid is rumored to be interested) I wonder how globally accessible their broadcast will be in the future? Will it always be limited or will I be able to tune in on Sundays like I was back in the US? It's silly I worry about this, especially when that move is about 20 years away and who knows what tech advances will be in play by then.... Buuut, I'm the type of guy who writes about all things his team on a message board, so yeah. I'd be interested in hearing what others thoughts are or what their current history might be with watching the Bills or NFL oversees. I Remember being at the corner sports bar in Miraflores Lima in 2011. Our 5-2 start had slipped away that season. But at 5-5 we had a chance to surprise the Jets in NY and get to 6-5...hope....But we lost as the Jets scored late and I think Fitz had a pick late. Some guy in a Jet jersey across the bar whooped it up. Even though he had watched about 9 minutes of the game. 5-6, likely no playoffs for the 12th straight year. I just walked and walked and walked that day before finally hailing a cab to go to my in laws place. Love our Bills!

2013 Bills Season Defining Moments
Bills fan since 87 replied to corta765's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
This was year one of my four year stint with season tickets. I remember walking out of the stadium after the Patriots game saying "Tough loss but I believe we found our Quarterback!" The Carolina game the following week cemented that opinion. The rest of his tenure jackhammered that cement. -
2013 Bills Season Defining Moments

Welcome back defining moments! -
Aside from the Bills this season? Any other NFL games when the Bills are not conflicting? Any big college games? I will be going to Syracuse/Clemson for example. Would love to know what other games us Mafia might be checking out. Edit: This is probably posted on the wrong board, sorry mods. Move as needed

Stadium area bars...AFTER the game
Bills fan since 87 replied to Bills fan since 87's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Awesome info, right now the reservations are for motel 6, but that can change True on so many levels! HOWEVER sir, this is an old friend I see once a year. Gotta make that night count! -
Stadium area bars...AFTER the game
Bills fan since 87 replied to Bills fan since 87's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
"Now" Oh I know Hammers sir, prob tailgated there 75-100 times. Will take him through. But, post game is my aim! Stadium bars or hamburg bars seems to be the new dilemma. -
Stadium area bars...AFTER the game
Bills fan since 87 replied to Bills fan since 87's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Ohhh, that could be dangerous if so. We have no intent of going to Chippewa or downtown. We've done that scene for concerts anyway... Hotel s in Hamburg. Any decent town bars there off hand? -
Trying something new for the Monday Nighter. Actually renting a dump of a room down the road in Hamburg and staying over. For the first time ever I wont be tailgating (unless I went solo). Pregame will be walking around the lots showing a first timer what the Mafia is. Post game I am sure he is going to want to go inside to finish off the night, if the bars are open until 2 then as we'll get out of the stadium close to midnight. Are the Big Tree and the larger place at the far end usually hopping post game, or is it filtered out due to the go home right away people and post game tailgaters? It would be nice to just close out the eve with the last dwindling Bills fans. Having just beaten the Patriots on Monday Night Football to clinch the AFC East:)

I'd take it. Would love a bye or a couple home playoff games but honestly just get in and anything can happen. This team is set to consistently make the playoffs, and win games for a number of years. that's all you can ask.
