I do wish you could go to a football game without being drunk. I don't see how that's a dig. I did not think you would find it insulting, or take it personally, if I suggested you might enjoy something without alcohol as much as you do with alcohol.
Nowhere in this thread did I indicate that I even drink alcohol at all, let alone go to games drunk. You are just making this up, as you have a bunch of other things in this thread. Nobody likes that condescending, lecturing type of personality either, just FYI. So, while you suggest to me how I should not do something you have no clue whether or not I actually do, I'd suggest to you that others would like you more if you dropped that personality trait.

Edit: This is in response to BillsFanNC - lost the quote, sorry!
I guess we disagree that things that happen exceedingly rarely are big issues. The topic of this thread asks whether Bills games are really that family unfriendly.
Myself, and several other posters are responding that we feel that the stadium is not overly unfriendly on game day, and that many of the people writing that there are literally ten thousand people so drunk that they are falling down, vomiting everywhere, and urinating in their seats is just untrue in our experience.
Then, a poster came in with a puritanical view of alcohol consumption, which again many posters took exception with. Many mature, responsible adults feel that consuming alcohol is not inherently evil, and that alcohol consumption on stadium grounds does not turn Ralph Wilson Stadium into some sort of Lord of the Flies style living hell.
After this, you took this discussion and somehow changed the title of this thread to "Do you feel that people getting drunk to the point of falling down, and vomiting/urinating freely in their seats is bad?"
Answer to that is yes, so I suppose you nailed it

<insert anti-alcohol rant>
We get it, you want to outlaw alcohol at football games.
It isn't going to happen, sorry.
You can subtly interject little digs at those who are disagreeing with you, saying things like how you wish I could go to a football game without being drunk. Good stuff, right there.
I'm sorry that you find people consuming alcohol to detract so much from your gameday experience. We'll miss you at the stadium on Sunday, but I think you'll be just fine at home with a mug of hot cocoa

Yes, I think that the doom and gloomers here are exaggerating things quite a bit in order to be inflammatory in their assessment of behavior at the stadium.
Based on my experiences attending dozens and dozens of Bills games, I do not think that you are likely to witness someone literally urinating or defecating in their seats. I do not think that you are likely to have someone pour a beer on your head. I do not think that you are likely to get assaulted by an intoxicated fan.
I just don't think these things happen as much as folks are letting on.
I've seen one person throw up in their seats, and I'm not certain whether or not it was alcohol related. I'd imagine that plenty of people vomit at Disneyworld every day, too.
I've never personally felt unsafe or harassed at a game. I guess I just hit the lottery, even with a whole bunch of samples.

Except that people are consuming so much alcohol that three hours is not enough time to possibly rid them of their uncontrollable urge to act like a buffoon! Hooray! And we know that people that drink do not always make the most logical or responsible choices, particularly in regards to their liver, or, you know, driving. Yipee!
Well, at least your silly made up arguments have morphed to a discussion on whether drinking and driving is a logical and responsible choice. Congratulations, we agree on that one. But saying that driving while impaired is wrong has nothing to do with the original discussion you were having - the one where you called the Ralph some sort of cesspool overflowing with vomit, or was it a hell zone? I forget.

Fortunately the sane and the reasonable parents have arrived to put those looking for a new era of Prohibition in their place
Three cheers for responsible, free-thinking people!
-
Do you magically become undrunk and not wasted when before and after the game?
And yes! You do indeed become "undrunk" after a long period without additional consumption of alcohol. The body truly is a magical thing!
And, it gets even better! People who drink can also choose to allow others to drive them home. People who haven't consumed any alcoholic beverages at all! Amazing!
-
LOL. Sorry bro, you are being over-sensitive on this one, and are really just making up things to suit your weak point. I'm sorry that you are uncomfortable around adults consuming alcoholic beverages and assume that anyone does is "wasted" and "unruly" and "Does Not Play Well With Others". I do agree though, that the stadium is not really a good place for you.

** THE STADIUM WALL SECURITY ALERT **
Be advised that due to eyewitness accounts by community member 'wardigital', Buffalo Bills fans are STRONGLY URGED to avoid the vicinity of Ralph Wilson Stadium on NFL game days due to the follow common occurrences:
People urinating on each other for enjoyment
Fans consuming their young
Constant vomiting
Harassment of children
In short, the entire area is to be classified as a Lawless Hell Zone (LHZ).
Avoid the area at all costs, or you may feel uncomfortable.
** END ALERT **
-
Facist machismo! HAHAHA. It's getting hilarious in here.
-
It Ralph Wilson Stadium basically just a lawless hell zone where the lowest common denominator can piss on each other for their own amusement?
LOL, way to just make stuff up. Seriously? A "lawless hell zone"? People pissing on each other? Come on, man. I'm guessing you've either never actually been to a game, or have some sort of memory disorder.

Anyone who thinks it's ok to harrass and curse at a little kid because of the shirt he choose to wear has some serious problems.
No, they don't. Get off your high horse, clown. My God, how PC do we really want this country to become? Part of being a sports fan is the give and take razzing that fans of each time do with one another. Telling little Jimmy that the Dolphins suck is neither harassing him or cursing at him. Keep your kids in the bubble and never let them into the real world - safe and sound!

Lee Evans is a decent NFL receiver, and would be a good complimentary receiver on a team with a solid stud #1 possession-type receiver.
He is overpaid for what he does, and he is screwed anyhow by having no quarterback.
Oh and the guy saying that Lee Evans is about as good as the receivers on these teams:
Tampa, Washington, New Orleans, KC, Philly, Indy, Balt, Pitts, NYJ
Marques Colston, DeSean Jackson, Reggie Wayne, and Anquan Boldin would like to have a word with you. Also Sidney Rice from Minnesota, a team that Lee Evans would _clearly_ be the #1 receiver on.
LOL.
He's a #20 receiver in the league. Not bad, but also really bad when your next best receiver is maybe the 100th best.
Also, seriously no, C.J. Spiller should not be turned into a wide receiver. That is a terrible idea. You generally want to take your high draft picks and play them at their actual position. Just saying.
-
I think they are crossing the line when they falsely quote someone - espesially to the degree of contemplating murder.
Oh my God! The line! They crossed it! Now what will we do?!?!
EVERYONE PANIC, THE LINE HAS BEEN CROSSED!
Get a thicker skin, jeez. It's a joke, and was funny imho.

I think a lot of the people here get off on wildly exaggerating the amount of unruly behavior at the Ralph. I've been going to games all my life (early 30s now), and have had season tickets for a long time. Sure, I'll see the occasional person who is visibly intoxicated staggering around the parking lot before games (esp. the rare night game), but some people make it sound like every other person is literally vomiting on them.
I've tailgated in every stadium lot, and I've had seats in the endzone corners, and seats closer to the middle of the lower bowl. As the seats got better, the rowdiness declined. But even in the rowdiest of sections you won't hear/see much more than some crass language and an occasional shouting match.
People like to drink a few beers and get loud. If you (or your kids) come to the stadium wearing the jersey of the opponent, you absolutely should expect to get razzed about it. Oh no, someone told little Jimmy that the Dolphins suck. I suppose he'll be committed to a life of crime now.
My childhood memories are much the same - hearing some language that I didn't hear on a daily basis, and it was pretty darn fun and exciting.
Let your kids out of the house - it'll be ok. People aren't running around murdering each other and projectile vomiting all over your precious snowflake.

No it's fun to watch people who are so drunk they can barely stand up cover each other with ketchup and eat like homeless people.
I fail to see the charm in that.
Something tells me this guy is GREAT fun to hang around with.
-
I'd suggest that someone attempt to find contact information for our new friend Jeffrey Miller at the NFL, so people who disagree with his puritanical views can voice their opinions.
-
Can we limit the threads this guy starts please?? At least to 1 a day..
LOL, says the guy with the fellatio signature.
Don't like em, don't click on em.
Drayton Florence is one of my favorite Buffalo Bills, because I feel like he genuinely has the desire to win. I really don't get that palpable feeling of intense motivation out of but a few of the players on the current roster.
And, I too would enjoy playing some Madden with him. Bet I'd clown him good too.
-
LOL. This thread is a gem.
Calling cops pigs, hillbilly southerners looking to start another civil war with the evil North, and Mike in Syracuse playing Forum Avenger as usual, dropping some sweeeeeet politics pro-tips on us.
:thumbsup: Three thumbs, way up.

Just two touchdown favorite?
Bet the farm on Pack.

"I die of embarrassment!" Sainz wrote in Spanish. "I am in the locker room of the Jets waiting for Mark Sanchez while trying not to look to anywhere!"

Being a Bills fan is the best for one simple reason:
If and when our time ever comes to win the Superbowl, nobody will ever be able to appreciate it more and enjoy it more thoroughly than Buffalo Bills fans.
And the good thing for you, the new fan, is that the team is still at the bottom and will be there for long enough for you to build up that anticipation too!
One final thought - don't let anyone talk you into defending a Bills quarterback who will not and can not perform at an elite level. Demand justice until the team finds one.
Good luck and enjoy the roller coaster.

Not sure I know exactly what your trying to say here, but I believe you are saying you have lost respect for the Bills. If so, why waste time to question another person's eternal optimism. Generally when I have little to no respect for something, I tune them/it out of my life.
Your choice. I guess I get more entertainment out of voicing my frustrations and trying to convince others that they should change their attitudes, because once Bills fans stop being doormats some actual change can be effected.
It will never get better until the true fans of this team (and I'd say people that take time out of their day to post on unofficial message boards count) say enough is enough.
I still think Leodis McKelvin played really well, and is part of the group that makes up the bright spot on this team.
-
Perhaps the one lacking in common sense is the one defending the product that you are seeing on the field on Sundays. I don't know anything about you, so I neither respect nor disrespect you. I know all too well the Buffalo Bills, and it is in fact them that I have lost respect for.
Heck, have some _self respect_ and take your head out of the sand. I get the desire to stick your fingers in your ears and hope with all hope that things will just get better. If that's your thing, cool deal man. But don't tell me I'm not allowed to call it like I see it. That's kind of the point of this place...

I'm sure the coaching staff will ruin him anyhow.
I didn't see anything about him being able to play quarterback so who even cares.
Cut.
