My fiancé surprised me with a trip to NYC, and tickets to this weeks game at the 50 yard line. This is a huge deal for me as I live in Oregon. Any tips for my first home game? I'm excited beyond belief!!! We are catching a flight from NYC to Buffalo at 6 AM Sunday morning.

 

GO BILLS!

Awesome! Go straight to the tailgating...its a complete blast and one of the best pre-game experiences in the NFL...make sure you track down Pinto Ron and do a Cherry liquer bowling ball shot!

You need to check out an LSU tailgate. I thought I knew what tailgating looked like until I saw an SEC tailgate.

 

 

That is on the list for my friends & I. We have been to Notre Dame, Michigan, Michigan St, Penn St, Syracuse, Pitt(my friend went to school there), West Point(which was awesome, Ohio St., Clemson but we have never been to an SEC game/tailgate. We either wanted to do LSU, Ole Miss(I heard the groove is awesome) or Alabama/Auburn after Thanksgiving. We will get down there one of these years.

 

& to the OP, you will have a great time. Go to Hammers, get there early(before 8am) & you will have the time of your life.

Or slide down the rails of the upper deck.

Be sure your vaccinations are up to date first.

oh yea, I see the legendary LSU tailgaters on Barstool all the time - putting each other through tables, doing bowling ball shots, traveling around the country to opposing stadiums and causing a ruckus....OH WAIT NO I DONT

 

Stop it fool...how dare you speak about Bills tailgates and mention ANY OTHER IN THE LAND in the same breath (or in this case, within the same reply on an internet message board)

Sounds like you got a keeper too. My anniversary gift was the Denver game. While it may seem crazy to a non-local to start tailgating 5 hours before the game, it is an experience. No one is more welcoming than Bills fans at tailgate. The time flies and you go into the stadium hyped and with friends

I heard it snows a lot, better bring your winter boots!

well, I would highly recommend quality rain gear, after spending all that money do not want to be miserable. And you probably know, but cotton undergarments are NOT your friend, wool socks, waterproof boots, and a quality rain suit will go a long way if it is 45 and raining.

 

Having said that, I will join with Mead and say join us at Hammers. ZERO need for either food or beer or soft beverages, but if you are a spirits or wine guy I would bring those. We are having chicken soup through the day, I will be making a big pot of jamabayla at the lot, and will also be doing double-fried Korean wings if weather permits. You are more than welcome at all the TBD tailgates.

unfortunately it gets old for the guy he fell on. he's on disability now and can't turn his head so driving a car ever again is probably out of the question among other things in this life

I usually come back for a game each season. Last year was the 49ers and this year it will be the Pats game. Get there early to enjoy the atmosphere. You can always find friendly tailgators if you dont know anyone. Some friends on mine here are Broncos fans and went to Buffalo for the game. They didnt know anyone and some Bills fans took them into their tailgate.

He's arriving at 6 AM. Someone give him a good breakfast tip that is on the way to the stadium. They'll be hungry.

 

I'm a Northtowns guy, so I don't know where to go.

 

(I'd go to The Original Pancake House, Williamsville, but that is out of their way)
