1st Ammendment NoMas Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Bills snap 19 game losing streak to the Dolphins. Fans storm the field and tear down the goalposts. I'm 7 and run on to the field with my best friend screaming like we won the Super Bowl. Before I know it, one of the Buffalo Jills scoops me up and kisses me on the lips. I'm bouncing off her jugs with my first boner as she carries me down the field. I think thats the only reason I've been a fan for over 40 years. I hate being a downer but Rex pisses me the !@#$ off. We were turning the corner and that porky little slickster strolled into town and screwed everything up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Barbarian Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 (edited) Lots of negativity about our 0-2 start and with good reason. Things could easily get worse before they get better. With that, what's your happiest memory as a Bills fan. The game or moment where you couldn't wait to see people at work the next day and show of that jersey. Unfortunately for myself, the playoff years were a bit hazy. The comeback was huge, but I lived up in WNY at the time and no one had anything against the Oilers. For me, I'm going to go with Bills win over the Pats with Fitz at the helm. I just hate Brady and the Pats that much. The Fred-Ex pass to setup the game winning FG. The Int's and overall play of the defense. We just went blow for blow with them and looked like we belonged out there. My optimism for our season, coach, qb, and overall team was at an all-time high. When that ball went through the upright as time expired, I was jumping up and down. The 31-0 beatdown with Bledsoe at the helm was good because I was there. Milloy had the crowd blowing up and Nate Clements played out of his mind. But that comes in second. beating the Raiders 51 - 3? back in 91 and knew for sure we were going to win the superbowl. Bills snap 19 game losing streak to the Dolphins. Fans storm the field and tear down the goalposts. I'm 7 and run on to the field with my best friend screaming like we won the Super Bowl.

Can't beat that (she was probably making sure you were safe , awe ) Each and every moment.....even now I cannot imagine being a fan of another team oooh, dang, every moment? Fergy To Roland Hooks.

Freddie's Dead Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 (edited) For me, the Don Shula retirement game. The Fish came to OP in 1995 for the Wild Card round, and we proceeded to drop 341 yards rushing on them in a complete and utter beatdown, sending Don Shula to retirement in style. Tim Tindale, the Canadian Comet, providing the coup de grace at 4:18 in this clip from NFL Prahm Tahm (forgive me, I posted this just a few months ago, but it NEVER gets old): Edited September 19, 2016 by Freddie's Dead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobbyC81 Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 AFC championship vs Raiders 51-3. The game had been over for about two and a half quarters and everybody stayed till the end. The whole crowd was chanting "thank you Bills, thank you Bills" . So excited to finally make a Super Bowl. Totally unique and the best celebration of a team ever in that stadium . You picked mine, although I wasn't there. It still was awesome to dominate the Raiders the way they did to get to their first Super Bowl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Jack Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Favorite moment is seeing my first game at Rich Stadium, December 1995, against the Dolphins, Bills win and clinch another playoff spot. Unfortunately they lost two weeks later against the Steelers. But it was an awesome day to be a Bills fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blokestradamus Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Honestly, Mario Watch was probably the first moment that I realised that this awful team had consumed me. It felt like a landscape change for the team, a priority FA actually wanted to be in Buffalo. I've not been a fan long enough to have too many memorable on-field moments. Maybe the Pats game with the Florence INT or beating GB a couple of years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSOL Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 The day my Dad came to me all excited because we got this guy named Jim Kelly to play here. Supposedly that was a big deal or something. '86 or '87, i dont know. I remember it like it was yesterday. I remember being like "who?" And he said something like "this guy is gonna be good, trust me" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 The ones that come to mind are the watershed moments-- those moments you knew were going to turn the tide: 1) Cornelius bennett's FG block return for a TD against Denver. 2) Kelly scoring on a QB draw on last play of the opener at Miami. 3) flutie naked bootleg against JAX (I was there).

We were all over Cox. He was public enemy #1 after giving the fans the finger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best Player Available Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Nothing this century. And not at home. But the no punt game in S.F. When Bruce came out for warm ups there were mostly Bills fans in the stadium. They were loud . Bruce did a lap around the stadium with his helmet held high. the fans screaming Bruuuuuce all the way. after the game the scene by the team busses was unreal. a couple of thousand Bills fans complete fandamonium.

BigdaddyinOrlando Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Raiders afc championship game! The euphoria was amazing to realize we were going to first super bowl and to have it in such a convincing and dominate way was an incredible feeling!

BMWR100RT Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 My all time favorite game was this: http://www.nytimes.com/1988/11/21/sports/bills-clinch-afc-east-crown.html It seems the goal post tear down has been scrubbed from video history, but I remember that game like it was yesterday. My late friend Jane and I and the group I was with just stood there wondering if this was really happening. The goal posts passed up to Ralph was epic. Such Joy. My second favorite moment was when the Pegula's bough the team and I was with my nephew who was not a Ralph Wilson supporter. As we entered the Miami / Wilson tribute season opener, they were handing out stickers with the RWS logo. Dan took his, took a look at it and handed it back and said politely "No thank you". All that it means to be a Bills fan in one simple transaction. It still makes me laugh. #GoBills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CodeMonkey Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Mine was a very short lived one. It was the moments leading up to wide right. I was at a party with all Bills fans. As the FG team was going onto the field everyone was standing and going crazy, screaming, high fiving, the feeling that the Bills were FINALLY going to win the big one was just euphoric. Even the "plus 1's" in attendance that weren't football fans at all were caught up in the emotion of the moment. It was unreal. Then after the kick everyone just collapsed silently into their chairs for what seemed like hours at the time. But the moments before that !@#$ing kick I'll never forget. I just hope that someday I'll have a moment like that, with a different result, to share with my family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clearwater cadet Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Awful to say, but when a telecommunication CEO in Toronto passed away in 2008, the bills chances of moving to Toronto died with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GottaRun Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 (edited) 1. The Cowboys Monday Night game was the craziest I've seen the Ralph. One and only time I got so excited I jumped up, got pushed by the celebrating crowd and landed on my back in the next row. 2. Chargers game when the power went out. Played the bulk of the rest of the game with no power. 3. The wind game (Giants?) when the posts had to be held down with rope to pull them straight. 4. The day my first ever season tickets arrived at the house (I miss real tickets :-( ) Edited September 19, 2016 by driddles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
