    Hi all. I've never attended a Bill's game on enemy soil. My son, who is in the army, will be returning home from Afghanistan and we want to see the Miami game as part of our vacation plans. 

    I've heard horror stories of fans attending away games. Mind you my 6 year old granddaughter may be attending also. So I'm looking for advice as to how to make this a great trip. Where is the safest place to sit, can we wear Bill's gear, hotel suggestions near Miami, and places to eat?

    Any help would be awesome.

    There is nothing to worry about in Miami unless you are looking for it

    I'll check in closer to the date with more info on what to do in Houston.  If the last time the Bills visited is any indication, the local Bills Backers Bar will have festivities all weekend likely centered around Christians Tailgate Midtown on Bagby. 

     

    I would recommend staying near downtown for nightlife and things to do/see as the area around the stadium is a barren wasteland.   The Hyatt and Magnolia have decent rates for game weekend right now.  You can take the metro from downtown to NRG for $1.25 or Uber for $10. 

     

    For nightlife you will want to be in downtown, midtown or Montrose.  Each has their own scene and all are near downtown.  I'll follow up with a comprehensive list later but some must trys for local flavor would be fajitas and queso at El Tiempo and BBQ at Pit Room (get brisket or beef rib).

    Awesome. I will be staying in midtown, about a mile from Christian’s. I look forward to your future post. Thanks!

    Minny for me. Was deciding between there and Lambeau, but Minny won. Really want to see a game in US Bank. As an architecture buff, it's a gem.

    I’ve been trying to follow along and find a Saturday night bills fan gathering for Minnesota but haven’t found it yet.

    I don't think that's how McDermott operates. If other receivers are performing better he's not going to give Zay a freebie just because he was drafted higher. Don't forget he fired Dennison after just one year. He'll move on right away regardless of how it makes him look. We brought in a lot of youth at the position and Zay has his work cut out for him.

    Coordinators get fired after a year all the time. Second round picks don’t.

    I'm glad to hear Zay won't be gifted a starting spot. I wouldn't even assume he will make the team at this point. The receiver competition should be very interesting.

    He’s still McD’s draft pick and as a second rounder he’s not getting cut this year, especially with the lack of proven talent on the wr depth chart

    My answer is almost always “the next one.” With that being said, we have a big group coming for Houston. It also is entirely possible that the Yankees and Astros are playing the ALCS there at that time. I went the last time the Bills played in Houston and last year to the ALCS. I hope to be able to double dip this year!! The thought of that has me excited!!

    I’m coming in for this game too. Have never been to Houston. Where are you sitting?  I haven’t gotten tickets quite yet. Staying downtown at club quarters

    I feel bad for Whaley he never got to own the job, Perhaps it was his shortcomings that allowed him to always be pushed to the side .  We may never know but one thing is clear he was general manager in name only 

    He was a scout who got a role he didn’t deserve handed to him by another scout who got a job he didn’t deserve (ole boy buddy nix). And they were both bumbling idiots
