  1.  I have some information. 

     

    "The ticket barcodes have not been loaded and they won’t be loaded until 24 hours prior to the game.

     

    Once the tickets have been fully loaded, you will be able to download the tickets into your apple wallet. If you are unable to do so, you can still bring the tickets up on the Buffalo Bills app and we can scan the tickets from the app.

     

    Yes, you can bring in seat cushions that are just the cushions and do not have any zippers on them. Blankets are allowed, bags and banners are not allowed into the game."

     

    I was sent this information from my Bills rep.  I had been hounding her.

    All I gotta say is your wife better be 300 pounds, with a throat made of barnacles.

    No, my wife is not but she is a voice major and I am NOT known for my lilting voice. I have often been told to lower my voice. Once,at a Sabres game, to "please quiet down".  I will be using 150% + to make the 6772 "12 "man"s  (people) to do all we can.....false starts, delay of games, missed calls.....look for them at the entrance end on Saturday .  I WILL SHOUT MY ***** ASS OFF and so will my wife.  Go Billszzz!!!!!!!

  3. If there is already a thread on this, please delete , moderators (and please point me to it!)

     

    My wife and I are attending the Bills - Colts game.  

     

    So far, I am waiting word on the testing date(s), time choices, etc.  I will inform attendees at this thread when I hear otherwise.

    Next, I still do not have any tickets to download. Will inform folks when THAT happens.

     

    Last, I am assuming we can bring in a blanket, seat cushions, and  a banner. I will let people know if I hear anything about this being a problem.

     

    I have been a Bills fan since 1969 at age 7.  This will be my first playoff game.  Same goes for my wife.

     

    Oh,  we are in section 224.

     

    Go Bills!

  4. Obviously, it does not matter what anyone else wants, Coach  McDermott will decide this. So, we should try to figure out what the coach wants to do. If he cares more about changing the odds on whom the Bills will play and where, then he plays the starters. The Bills odds on playing the Colts jump if the Bills win plus it guarantees all home games until the Championship game.

     

    Based on last year, where he sat the starters and saw his team come out sharp from the get go against Houston, my guess is he is not at all concerned about momentum, playing flat, etc. He is certainly, IMO, not concerned about records etc. I don't think he is much concerned about new injuries but will likely rest all "dinged" players. John Brown will play to get some reps in.

     

    So, my guess is the starters play the entire first half unless the score goes hugely one way or another.

  5. As promised, here is my report:   got in right at 1:30. Still numerous seats left.  I purchased 2 right near my usual seats.  I

    will be in section 224, row 9. They allowed me to use some of my deposit money. I had no problems at all.

     

    I am awaiting word on when to get tested. If weather okay, we will make it a visit Buffalo day....might as well visit the pro shop, ay?

  6. My time slot today is 1:30. I believe I have been a STH since 2012 (I purchased tickets from Hammer the year we signed Bledsoe but he got credit for being the STH hence why I eventually got my own in the Family section which I love). I will give a detailed description of my experience. I plan to buy two tickets if they are available. My wife and I live near Rochester and are quite willing to make rhe 1:40 drive to Orchard Park twice for the chance to see a game.

  7. I am a season ticket holder but not one with a lot of seniority..I  have to check, something like 8-10 years. I was contacted a week ago and told I would be informed if my two seats make it to the option to buy list. I assume if there is a second game, the invitees start from the ones that missed out in game 1. We will be told how, where, and when to get tested. I will give out information if I get any but I assume others will beat me to it.  Go Bills!

  8. Just as a reminder or to those that have not read the latest understanding from researchers on COVID:

     

    "How soon after I'm infected with the new coronavirus will I start to be contagious?

    The time from exposure to symptom onset (known as the incubation period) is thought to be three to 14 days, though symptoms typically appear within four or five days after exposure.

    We know that a person with COVID-19 may be contagious 48 to 72 hours before starting to experience symptoms. Emerging research suggests that people may actually be most likely to spread the virus to others during the 48 hours before they start to experience symptoms"

     

    source is Harvard Health Publishing  https://www.health.harvard.edu/diseases-and-conditions/if-youve-been-exposed-to-the-coronavirus  (scroll way down to get to this quote)

     

    Now, players are being tested everyday so, if any players caught the virus Monday night, there is reason to hope they will test positive by Saturday. If they do not, and are actually infected, one can feel somewhat reassured the window between not testing positive YET and STILL BEING CONTAGIOUS is a narrow window. To be clear, yes, one can test negative and be contagious but it is more typical that a person tests positive, before having symptoms in this frequent testing environment, prior to being  contagious.

     

    Having said this, I am furious that these players did this and now the Bills are now at risk playing them this Sunday (however small the risk).

    OK, folks, not the right place to discuss covid-19 incubation period, when people start being contagious, or the sensitivity and selectivity of different tests.  Somewhere Else, Not Here -mod]
