Mexican Joe's in Amherst. Stopped drinking in the 2nd half if that makes sense because of the stress. Back in the day I could drink. Fell into the cigarette machine when he missed. Walked home in a snowstorm that blew into my face the whole way. Slept for 11 hours. Still hurts.

Or what you were doing when Norwood missed the game winning field goal in the Superbowl against the Giants? I hope you guys dont mind bringing up these kind of games. I was going to ask about the comeback against the Oilers but a topic was started on that already so I thought of this one. Anyways do you remember what you were doing or where you were?

I was sitting right by the goal post at the Big Sombrero that the ball sailed wide right by. Just a heartbreak of epic proportions. I was pretty drunk but it still sucked something awful!! The drive with my buddies from Tampa back to Atlanta the next day was very depressing.

 

I was also at the Music City Miracle game in Nashville. That was more shocking then heartbreaking. But still a huge downer just the same.

 

I was also at the Bills-Dolphins playoff game in Miami after the 1998 season when Flutie got creamed by Trace Armstrong at the 5 when we were marching for the winning TD late in the game.

 

And I went to the Bills-Cowboys Super Bowl at the Rose Bowl in 1993. That game just sucked ass big time. I was so pissed after that loss, I kicked over a row of chairs at LAX airport.

 

I have seen some heartbreak in my years.

 

The last Bills game I saw live was the win in 2011 against the Pats when Fitzie led us on the big comeback. That was a great victory! And I saw the Hail Mary TD in 1981 against the Pats from Fergy to Hooks when I was a teenage. So I have seen some good victories.

 

Hopefully a lot more positive then negative is on the horizon. Go Bills!!

Oops sorry if I offended anyone with this topic. I was going to start one about the Oilers comeback? Can I change it to that since that is a good memory but I know that has been beaten to death on this board too.

Don't worry about it. Go check out that guy spags in another thread. These guys are harmless, just rabid Bills fans one and all. I remember you from BBMB too. You're always welcome, but Jeez, ya had to bring up wide right. Actually kicked in the tv set I had just bought to watch the game on.

Was at a super bowl party. No doubt we are gonna win this game. Snowing hard outside. Owner of the house was a Giants fan and frankly a dousche bag. I thought it was a 30 yarder then they said 47 yard attempt I got real nervous. It was one of the worst moments in my life. I'll never forget it. Total devestation.

The real entertaining question would be this.....

 

What would happen if the Bills made the SB this year and missed another 47 yard FG to win as time expired.

 

How would the region hold up if something like that happened?

 

I think they'd have to call out the National Guard....and I'm not kidding one bit.

it went beyond urge for me. giants fan lived in an above apt and was talking trash before the game. needless to say he came knocking on my door half drunk after the game talking even more trash. I beat the living **** out of him only to have his gf kick me in the nuts.

 

 

I don't know what hurt worse, the kick in the nuts or losing the game.

To a lot of us, that wide right was like a kick in the nuts. Felt pretty much the same. Ten years after that game, I tried watching it and only got through the first

 

half, turned it off, took out the tape, and threw it away. It still hurt all that time later.

But this was a girl! Granted, I'm 6'1" and about 190#, and she was my size, but.... still!

I was on the 40 yard line about 20 rows up on the Bills side and the guy behind me, who was my friend's cousin, had the numbers on a winner take all $10,000 pool if Norwood makes the kick. So we lost the game and he lost 10K by a foot. Ouch.

OUCH
