Pancho has been following this thread and asked me to post the following message from him: "THANK YOU, THIS MEANS THE WORLD TO ME & MY FAMILY. ONE BUFFALO AT HEART, VIVA LOS BILLS, GOD BLESS!"

29 spots in the low rent district at the back of the lot please.

A couple of us are meeting at a Sunoco gas station at 901 W 8th Street at 7:45 and will convoy in to the Longworth lot. This will allow us to get a few cars in a row to give us enough space to allow others to walk over and join us. You can either join the convoy, or find us in the lot. More than likely since we will be early we will be in either the first or last row. Udonkey (Mike) will be driving a Yukon/Tahoe type vehicle and will try to rig up his Bills flag. On my rental, I will have a bowling ball (16 pound shot glass) on the roof.

I’ll be at the Longworth hall lot that Udonkey has recommended. It should be noted that Longworth Hall is a long building with parking lots both north and south of the hall. I’ll be in the lot to the north of the building. The Pinto stays in Buffalo, but I’ll have a “community” grill, tables and some basic supplies on hand (paper towels, utensils, 16 pound shot glass, etc.). I’m hoping to get a couple of cars in a convoy so we can string a few together in the lot early. Late comers can walk over. Feel free to PM me for my cell number.

I’ll be parking in cash lot “A”, entering via gate 2: http://prod.static.chiefs.clubs.nfl.com/assets/pdf/2010-parking.pdf We will have a few cars meet across from gate 2 in the driveway of a Clarion hotel before the gates open and convoy across so we can string enough cars together to have a tailgate area. We expect walk-ins. In the past we were able to convoy before the gates open and queue up in the driveway. We can’t count on anything this year so we will play it by ear. The parking personnel “herd” us to spots, there is no real freedom to pick a pole or corner ahead of time to let people know exactly where we will be. We can’t save spots either. Since we will be a part of the first wave, we will more than likely be in the first couple of rows in front of the baseball stadium. We will have tables, grills, etc. so late comers can bring their stuff over. Although, since the gates only open up only 3 ½ hours before the game it is hard to image any Buffalo fan being a late comer. PM me for my cell number, once I am there I can text the nearest light pole number. It won’t be to hard to find us.

Shane and Natasha, two die-hard Bills fans, will be exchanging their vows at the Pinto Tailgate party, 11:00 AM Oct 31. The reception will immediately follow. The Pinto tailgate is located in lot 1 (the south lot) a few rows east of pole 5.
