cantankerous Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 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!

I'm Spartacus Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Go right from the Buffalo Airport to the stadium. Start tailgating early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaattMaann Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 (edited) As stated above, go right to the lots from the airport....stop at a gas station and pick up some brews, enjoy the atmosphere, just walk around. If you want good people, look up Hammers Lot and have fun there. Otherwise just wander around holding your beer right in the box it comes in and soak in the scene man....it's like none other (if someone offers to put you through a table, or have you put them through a table....DO IT!)

Seattlebills21 Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 You have a good woman. Some friends and I flew in last night from Seattle. there big Raiders fans and I had to travel to Oakland last year so it was only fair that they have to come here this year. 1st game at New Era haven't been back home for a few years looking forward to Sunday and a Bills win.

boyst Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 You won't need to worry too much about beer if a good TBD contingent is there, not food. You'll be fed and needed up. Buy geae online. Cheaper. Easier. Will save time at the game. Team store is packed on game day and will take an hour. Go to Hammers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to check out an LSU tailgate. I thought I knew what tailgating looked like until I saw an SEC tailgate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelly the Dog Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 If you haven't already, I would start drinking now. If you ever really want to have a great time, it almost always occurs on the sixth day of an eight day binge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steptide Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Since you won't have a car for tailgating (I assume), do as others have said. Get beer and walk around to see all the tailgating. I'd also recommend checking out the field house. It's cool on game days and they have nice(er) bathrooms. If you've never been to a game, definitely get inside the stadium early (I recommend 11 or 1130) that way you can avoid the crowds at the gates and it'll give you ample time to walk around the stadium and see everything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PromoTheRobot Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 If you do want your own food, easiest thing to do is stop at the Wegman's supermarket on McKinley Blvd. Huge prepared foods section. Subs, wings, beef on weck, pizza, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No tips from an outsider, but you'll both have a great weekend, the people in Buffalo are outstanding. My GF surprised me with a trip in 2000 and we returned with the fam for the Broncos a few weeks ago. Hope the two of you have great times together in the next 17 years...but without all the Bills losses! BTW, like the screen name CAN'T TANK!!

Buffalo716 Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 Awesome man! Enjoy the trip! Like others have said the best place to tailgate would prolly be hammers Lot because you will meet people you know from the site. Take in the atmosphere man. Not many NFL cities like Buffalo. Your girl sounds like a keeper !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
