Thanks, Cereal! Really looking forward to everything! Our driver apparently knows the owner of the Big Tree Inn and said we could tailgate in their parking lot. Is that too far away from the action? Regardless, we'll definitely wander over to Hammer's Lot. I've put in a separate request on that thread to see if there are any spots left (hopefully!).

Sorry for the basic questions, but I've got a group of 10 guys coming up for the Bills game. We are looking to arrive at roughly 2pm and tailgate until the game. 1. Do you have any recommendations for private lots (aside from Hammers, obviously)? 2. Is 2pm too late to arrive for this game? 3. Any general advice? I've never organized this myself and simply want a spot around other tailgaters where we can drink drink drink. Thanks and Go Bills!

Please don't laugh, but I'm organizing a last-minute bachelor party for 10 guys, all flying into Buffalo for the game. Are there any general spots left? We are arriving at 2/230pm in a limo, so just one (big) car. Plus my brother is a chef and is preparing all the food. We'll be generous! I've lurked here for a long time and read pretty much every day, so I'd love to complete the experience, but I realize this is literally 48 hours before. Any help by chance?

Jimmy's Old Time is GREAT if you're outside the city and don't want to haul in. The owner is from B-lo and is a great guy. They annually do a huge cookout in the alley (it's not sketchy) right by the restaurant and usually get a decent alumnus there. I think last year was Andre Reed. If you're in DC, definitely go to Laughing Man. Right off of Metro Center. Literally a block. They ship in cases of Labatt Blue Light for the game and a bucket of five is $13. It's ridic. Get there early if you want a seat. The place is packed and a great atmosphere. Every TV downstairs is on the Bills game and mostly all of them upstairs as well. So much better than McFaddens, which was a tough place to get to and not the best viewing area. There's also the bar 51st State, which bills itself as a NY sports bar (even though they play the Giants/Jets game, but whatever). I've never been but have heard good things if you want a more low-key place where you can get a seat.
