goynahan Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 1. Organize a group of my 100-200 closest friends and rent out a bar downtown 2. After the victory, we would march down delaware and storm niagara square 3. Would wake up naked on the skyway as it is the only structure still standing in the greater buffalo area Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillnutinHouston Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 I would try real hard to see it in person with my son. No doubt people would converge on downtown and tear it up. Don't think it would do much for the economy long term but it would turn the area's psyche around permanently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where would you watch the game if the Bills were in the Superbowl? Here's a GREAT idea - tailgate at the Ralph BUT... set up "drive in" esque screens in EVERY lot. This might be the biggest party ever. 2. If the Bills won the Superbowl - in which district of Buffalo would the most rioting occur? If I wasn't already tailgating - I'd probably be running around downtown around the chip strip. I'm sure downtown would be thriving on this night - all bars open, etc... 3. Would the city of Buffalo be the same ever again? I think it would be a GREAT offseason with the press and such... but I like being an underdog. I think Buffalo would get a bit cocky afterwards.

At home, by myself, with a giant HD screen. (I would be too stressed out to watch with others) Maybe another person or two would be there. 2. I'm guessing the scene at Niagara Square would be something we'd never forget. 3. Yes. It would be uplifting at first, but eventually everyone would start all the "there's nothing going on here/politics hold back this city/blah blah blah" attitude that keeps the city/region down.

(I would be too stressed out to watch with others) Maybe another person or two would be there. I feel ya. I had a party for the last superbowl. It was my first appartment and my Dad and I were the only Bills fans. We were way outnumbered by Dallas fans - loud, annoying Dallas fans - by a large margin. I wanted to shoot some mutha-%$#&-uhs before it was over. Sidenote: Two of my buddies from that day, the two most obnoxious cow turds in the bunch, have been in prison now for most of their adult lives. Dallas scum. I hate em.

I'd try to buy tickets to the Superbowl for me & the family. If not, I'd have to travel up to Buffalo for the game. 2. If anything happens, it would be in downtown. IMO, I don't think you'd see any rioting going on, just a ton of celebrating. 3. It would bring up morale in the city and add more excitement. I'd definitely travel back to Buffalo for the Superbowl parade. Edited August 23, 2010 by Jerry Jabber Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would like to hear your opinions! 1) with a group of fans and if lucky enough to score a ticket at the game 2) Likely downtown 3) 18 months later - yes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nobody Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 I would guess there will be about 20 people shot in the Chippawa area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dpberr Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 I think Buffalo, and the entire sporting world would say not a thing. Stunned silence. in. awe. It would eclipse the Miracle On Ice. You see, Buffalo would enter the Superbowl as massive underdogs against an absolute juggernaut of an NFC team... ...and in righting all the wrongs of the last decade, pull out the win in the last second.

Beebe's Kid Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 I like the idea of the "drive in," but how about a huge 4-sided screen in the stadium, and let the season ticket holders go watch the game there...Somebody could have mine, because I am going. Period. Cost be damned. If the Bills go to a Super Bowl, I am not missing a second. I go to the Ralph for every home game, and travel to away games if I can. If we are going to play the biggest game in football...I am there. Oddly enough, this gets me all fired up, like we are close... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nick in* england Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 I'd watch from the stands - damn the cost, damn the hassle, I'd be there to see it in person. The rest is a footnote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthICE Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 The answer is as long as Ralph is alive and owns the team none of the above is going to happen so way even worry about it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be there in person with my kid brothers come hell or high water Who knows where the rioting would occur, my guess is Niagra Square The city of Buffalo would never be the same....

bills1960 Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 (edited) I'd go up to Buffalo to watch in case of a victory riot, wouldn't miss that for the world. Same goes if the Sabres won, I'd try to be there. Edited August 23, 2010 by bills1960 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cody Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 1) I'd probably watch it from a friend's house 2) Most of the rioting would be downtown. Most of the rioters would be from South Buffalo 3) It would do more for Buffalo than winning the world cup did for South Africa (I rented Invictus this past weekend) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
