  1. Nobody is arguing he didn't kill a whole heck of a lot of bison. This is originally what he was paid for, and he even earned his name in a bison killing contest against another man who claimed the same 'Buffalo Bill' title. But to say he helped cause their extinction (which in itself is incorrect because they are not extinct (yet)) is just not true and is unfair to his legacy. I doubt there is an American from that era who would be more disappointed to learn that they no longer roam the American west.
  2. Wild Bill Cody? I think I know who needs the history lesson. "Cody supported conservation by speaking out against hide-hunting and pushing for a hunting season" Wilson, R.L. (1998). Buffalo Bill's Wild West: An American Legend. Random House. p. 316. ISBN 978-0-375-50106-7.
  3. You will never see the word "Show" on anything Buffalo Bill Cody directly endorsed. He hated the word because he went to great lengths to make his entertainment as realistic as possible (save for some artistic license, eg. the 'first scalp for Custer' reenactment)
  4. Yellowstone slaughters them by the hundreds, in traps.
  5. the OP plan pretty much puts the new stadium on top of Sheldon cemetery
  6. It's actually a feasible road trip for us (a 600 mile drive is 'close' out here)
  7. My best ever memories tailgating at the Ralph (or anywhere) are at Hammer's Lot. We showed up late (8am) to the home opener this year, but Hammer was still able to squeeze us in, albeit next to Dolphins fans. It turns out these Fin fans are the same cats whohelp take care of Kenny during his annual trips to the Miami away game, so they knew what was up and we ended up exchanging shots and stories the whole time. I won't even entertain the thought of going anywhere else, so Thank You Hammer - have a great holiday too
  8. the invention of pepper extracts kind of ruined the fun of suicide wings for me, now anyone can make a thermonuclear sauce with daves, pure cap, etc. I believe most hot food competitions have banned them, which is probably good because they have sent more than a few to the hospital
  9. Bills4Life web site offers the following info: http://www.bills4life.com/events/buffalo_bills_at_oakland_raiders_ "We will also be hosting a grand tailgate for the game as well. If you have never been to Oakland before, they have Disneyland parking, so you have to park where they tell you to. What we are going to do is meet up at the Oakland Coliseum DMV and caravan over to the stadium. We've done this before and it's worked out great for us every time. Here is the address of the DMV: 501 85th Ave, Oakland, CA 94621 We are asking everyone to bring their own food and drink and other necessities so that we can all share what we have. If you have any further questions, feel free to e-mail me at markvaderr@sbcglobal.net or message me on facebook. I look forward to seeing you in December. Take care and GO BILLS!!! Mark Vaderr"

  12. cross-posting this a couple places on TSW: Our tailgate tickets sold out, we're sorry for those who weren't able to get them but many many tickets were sold The Hotel VQ parking adjacent to our tailgate location should have plenty of spaces if you get there early, it's also very easy to spot because it's the only tower hope to see everyone this weekend

  17. copying this directly from the FB page: "Are you a DIE HARD Buffalo Bills fan who's heading to the Thursday night game in Miami November 13th? If so, you're going to need to be at the Ultimate Buffalo tailgate! Instead of showing up to the stadium with no game plan we're going to pre-set the spot to rally so we waste no time in making this the most memorable away game tailgate you'll ever experience! Since parking at Sun Life Stadium can be tricky. We're going to have you refer to the map provided. Lots 10 and 12 will be Cash lots not permit so plan on entering the stadium around the Walmart on University Drive. Parking opens 4 hours prior to game time so plan on arriving around 4-430ish to reserve your parking spot. We are in the works of getting a DJ for entertainment and feel free to bring a grill, dish to pass around, or your game of choice. Let's remind these Miami fans that the Buffalo Bills have the BEST and most loyal fans in the NFL! Time to squish them fish!"

  19. Yes being superstitious as a Bills fan has got me so far..
  20. If your tv audio has a center channel, try turning it off. When I do this, the announcers get muted while the sounds of the stadium remain - so it is kinda like being there. You may have to turn down the subwoofer a bit too.
  21. I've heard of this condition
  22. I agree completely. In WNY there is no reason to call them Buffalo wings, but outside the area it is very appropriate and helps guarantee you will get bone-in wings and Buffalo style hot sauce (but not always blue cheese, too many default to ranch out here).
  23. name, rank, and serial number ?
