  1. I am born and raised in Kentucky, but have been a diehard Bills fan since the Super Bowl years. Over the last several years, I have turned my son into a diehard fan as well. For my sons graduation and my birthday, my wife got us tickets to the Vikings game. It will be my first Bills home game and my sons first Bills game ever. I have a few questions about the gameday experience i was hoping someone would answer for me.

     

    1. If I wanted to Uber to the game, where is a good location to have them drop us off at to avoid as much traffic as possible. Somewhere within a reasonable walking distance. I would say a mile or so from the stadium. We are staying in East Aurora.

     

    2. Where is Hammer's Lot? The parking lot maps I see just show lot numbers. We want to check out the tailgating experience and heard that it is one place I should check out. Also, are there any other lots I should visit? 

     

    3. Is there any thing special I need to know about entering the stadium? Do you still have to have proof of Covid vaccine, or was that just a thing last year? 

     

    4. As far as dressing for the game, what is the weather typically like mid-November. Is it usually colder or warmer then the temperature suggests in the stadium?

     

    That is all I can think of for now. If there is anything else you think I may need to know, please let me know.

     

    Thanks and Go Bills!!!

    Not sure if this would work but could sign up, for paramount plus and set you zipcode as a bUffalo code.  Looks like you get live cbs local programming for 8.99 a month. U would get all bills games on Cbs unless they cut off live Nfl games?

    This is what I did last year with hulu. I changed the geolocation of my PC to a buffalo address. I then got Buffalo's local channels. It isn't working this year. My brother in law was doing this with YouTube and they shut it down as well. Haven't heard anything on paramount.

    I'm always amazed to learn that fans like you exist! 

     

    I'm curious why in the world you became a Bills fan.

     

     

    I started getting into NFL football in high school (89-92) and loved watching the Bills and the k-gun offense. I am a very loyal person and stuck with them through the bad years, even when friends and family told me to give it up and pick a new team. I have missed very few games since the Sunday ticket came out in the mid 90's. I have seen a few games when they have come to Indy or Cindy, but my goal is to make it to a home game one day soon.

    This guide to Buffalo was put together by someone on the board a few years ago. It's geared toward game day but there's a lot of info about the area as well.

    Thanks for this info. It will be very useful.

     

    Thanks to everyone else's suggestions as well. I definitely plan to visit the stadium and Bills store. I also plan to do a lot of eating. 

  5. Greetings everyone. The family and I will be spending a week in the Buffalo area (Wilson, NY I believe) for a week at the end of June. Other than Niagra Falls, what are some attractions and restaurants in the area I should check out. I am from Kentucky and have only been to the area once, when I was a child. I have been a lifelong Bills fan and was hoping to tour the stadium, but apparently you can only tour from July to September's.

     

    Any suggestions would be appreciated.

     

    Go Bills!

    When, really please explain.  I am not going to post anymore inside information or what you call lies just want to get along with people. We are all bills fans and we should be celebrating 

    You are too much of an attention whore to stop sharing your fake information.

  9. I have lived in Louisville all of my life. I started getting into football in the late 80's - Early 90's and loved watching the Bills during that time. I kind of just stuck with them. Have been a big Bills fan ever sice and have not missed a game in probably 8 years thanks to direct TV and internet streaming. I have invested too much time and emotion into this team to just give up on them because of a few bad years. I am not a T-Bone and will be a Bills fan as long as they have a team.

  11. I was wondering if anybody had ever been to the Derby, me and some friends want to go party in the infield that weekend. Anybody been? How much are infield tickets and how easy are they to get? Thanks in advance to those who respond. :D

    I live in Louisville and have been several times, but haven't been in almost 10 years (married with kids now). You can't bring your own alcohol, but it used to be pretty easy to sneak it in. The third turn was where most of the excessive drinking, partying, and nakedness used to take place. I believe tickets for the infield are usually about $40.
