First time coming to Buffalo!!!


Recommended Posts

I hope you have a fantastic time.

 

What are you going to do with your bags? You can't carry them into the stadium with you.

 

You'll need to rent a car for the day, or somehow find someone you can trust to put your luggage into their car for you while you're at the game.

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)

Spot coffee in orchard park (on 20A). Or the pancake place on union in op just south of Michael rd.

 

I saw a reference to wegmans earlier in the thread. Great idea, but consider the west Seneca wegmans rather than Hamburg. The west Seneca wegmans is more direct from the airport, and is much less of a circus than the Hamburg wegs.

There is an Orchard Park location of the OPH too. Union near OP Blvd. Minutes from the stadium. Definitely go there.

We will be taking good care of them.

Sounds like a plan.

 

Land-get car, Original Pancake House in OP, then tailgate, watch game, celebrate victory, fly out.

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!

Welcome ‘HOME’, Cantankerous! If you’re spending more than one day, you have to do the whirlwind tour. Niagara Falls, Teds Hots, Anchor Bar (just because) and a dinner downtown.

There’s nothing like ‘Rich Stadium’ for a game day experience!

Enjoy! Hope the Bills deliver a win.

That's the one I'm talking about. Great point. You'd think I'd remember th name given that I drive by it four times a week. But the perf ft spot to stop on the way from the airport to the stadium.

 

Also, I believe nino's (a minute or two away from the OPH) opens at nine on game days. If pizza for breakfast is your thing, stop there.

If he is going to hit a Wegmans the one on Losson & Transit is his best bet. He could go right from the airport to Genessee make a right on transit. Transit will take him right into the stadium & trust me when I say this there will be absolutely no traffic before 8am.

 

& why stop for breakfast??? They will have plenty of good food at the tailgate.

They are coming to the TBD tailgate party.

 

They will have a fantastic time.

 

Lots of food and drinks.

 

They don’t have to bring anything.

 

When you fly in from out of town and have no friends or family from the area it is the TBD way to make it

Convenient, friendly, and a fun filled tailgate in the Hammer Lot that you won’t forget.

Im born and raised and still live in NYC.

 

Went to my 1st game at the Ralph close to 16 years ago. The people were so nice and it just felt like home. If it didn't get so cold, I would move out there just because of the people living in it.

 

But I hope you have fun and add a victory to your home game. Mine was a loss but it still didn't make me not want to go back. I been to a Bills game every year at least once since then. Enjoy.

 

Oh side note, i read u got 50 yard line tickets. The fans there are mostly squares. If you want a loud crowd that never sits down and stands for almost the entire game, purchase tickets on row 136. It's like the 15-20 yard line on the Bills sideline. My favorite row that i been on.
