ascalice Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 1. Anyone ever sit in the Rockpile? How is it there? 2. Which game should I go to? I can go to either the Patriots, Giants, or Jets game. Which would you go to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FluffHead Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 (edited) 1. No one has ever sat in the rockpile, however they have stood there, or passed out there 2. If I had to choose one of those three id go Giants. I like to see my team win (Giants will be hot garbage) and the jets game will have weather and the possibility of one or both teams result being irrelevant Edited April 22, 2015 by FluffHead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PromoTheRobot Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 1. Anyone ever sit in the Rockpile? How is it there? 2. Which game should I go to? I can go to either the Patriots, Giants, or Jets game. Which would you go to? I have 6 seats in 241. It's great when the play is in that end. Not so great when it's on the tunnel end. But you just watch the video screens. As for what game to go to, keep in mind that the opener (Colts,) Pats and Giants games are going to all sell out before tickets even go on sale to the general public. Same for the Cowboys and probably Dolphins. So you better know someone with season tickets to buy some for you in July, or settle on seeing the Bengals or Texans, probably the two least important home games this year.

BustaTimes Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Is it true they will not allow you to bring binoculars into The Raph? You can bring them, just not inside a case. I think they can't have lens covers on them either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Yes, but you can not also bring them to a Sabres game, not in the same city! Is it true they will not allow you to bring binoculars into The Raph? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scribo Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 If you can scream really loud and bring great intensity, come to the Pats* game! It is going to be absolutely electric after winning the home opener. If you're the quieter type, you may be better suited for the Giants game.

ascalice Posted April 23, 2015 Author Share Posted April 23, 2015 It is either the Pats, Jets, or I could also do the Cowboys games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmotionallyUnstable Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Can't beat the home opener. Be prepared to stand the entire time and lose your voice. Can't wait. Idk who is reffing that game but I'm Lready pissed at them...Go Bills! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
May Day 10 Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 I'm in the rockpile. Best crowd there imo. Lots of standing. Likelihood of being near a drunk monster higher. View is ok I think. Better than high in the upper deck. Opener or the pats game will be sick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B Rob Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 I sat in the rock pile two times. The home opener the year after the music city miracle when they played the titans. Went with my wife. She had beer spilled on her all night and people smoking weed around us. And in 2005 when the falcons were in town. A person got stabbed a section over from me. Depending on the crowd you want to be around you can make your own choice. But I'll never sit there again. I'll spend more on a seat not to have to deal with that.

May Day 10 Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Yeah. There is no weed there. The instant any sign of smoke of any kind and security swarms. haven't witnessed a possibility of stabbing In the past 10 years, just a few small fights in my section. It's definitely a rougher crowd, and being next to the a-hole lottery has greater odds... but I don't have too much urge to move Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

papazoid Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 Is it true they will not allow you to bring binoculars into The Raph? binoculars are allowed......as long as they are not filled with booze. they will check. 1. Anyone ever sit in the Rockpile? How is it there? 2. Which game should I go to? I can go to either the Patriots, Giants, or Jets game. Which would you go to? 1 - VERY RAUCOUS 2 - of those 3 games, new england. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not sit in Rockpile cause I don't like the view and prefer upper deck if I can't get lowers,' buts it's not cause I am worried about ruffians ! The stabbing happened. I was at that game too. The smell of bleach (or some cleaning agent) was really strong afterwards. In the same game, a woman in a Michael Vick jersey was moved to a different section because of the abuse she was getting. It started off as the whole section chanting "Vick has herpes!" The chanting quickly changed "You have herpes" while people wwre getting real close to her and aggressively pointing and putting their hands near her face. It was brutal. I've never smelled weed in the section though, and I had season tickets there from 2004-2009. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was she really only wearing a jersey and it escalated like that? That is just so sad if true....I havve never seen anything like that at a game.

That is just so sad if true....I havve never seen anything like that at a game.She was jawing back at fans but that was about it, as far as I could see. Nothing deserving the treatment she got. I only remember seeing her escorted out by security, not anyone else. Edited April 24, 2015 by KikoSeeBallKikoGetBall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly that's all it takes for some drunk pussies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BustaTimes Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 Wearing jerseys of division rivals to The Ralph when we're not playing that team has always been a no-no. I think it was the Cleveland game last year when someone rolled in wearing a Pats jersey. Mistake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was the Cleveland game last year when someone rolled in wearing a Pats jersey. Mistake. Nothing for nothing but why is that a mistake? If they are there to enjoy a football game but not wearing a Jersey attached to one of the teams why would they need to pay a price? I live in Delaware and go to one bills home game a year but when I go to games with friends that are skins or ravens fans I wear my bills gear. I'm a bills fan why should I have to fear other fans. Trash talk is one thing and you can tell if a person is just joking but people take being a fan a little to serious sometimes. And plezmd the stabbing absolutely happened. You don't have to buy it but it did happen. I'm sure it made a police beat in the local paper.But I was there and saw it. I really have zero reason to lie on a fan forum. The poster wanted opinions of the rock pile I was giving him my experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Not at the table Karlos Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 I sat in the rock pile two times. The home opener the year after the music city miracle when they played the titans.

Depending on the crowd you want to be around you can make your own choice. But I'll never sit there again. I'll spend more on a seat not to have to deal with that. I was at that falcons game sitting in 100s just below the rockpile. There were tons of fights at that game. Crowd was odd. Some one stole my Hoodie when I went to the bathroom. Never saw a crowd like that one at a bills game. I sat in the rockpile at the Chiefs game last year. Crowd was very quiet. But like others have said when the action is in front of you its great but when it's on the other side I was watching on the scoreboards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsfaninMyrtleBeach Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 It's not just the Ralph that people with other team colors get harassed. Went to Kansas City Chiefs, Buffalo Bills game in Arrowhead and was wearing my Bills gear (so was my wife). The crowd around us started by making rude remarks, then as they got drunker it escalated to yelling at us, then to throwing things at us, then pushing us. They started closing in on us like Zombies. We got out of there and left the stadium. We got catcalls all the way out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
