Sure, but you’re incredibly polite and well behaved, plus your built like the Incredible Hulk! 

 

 

 

(Or, maybe, you travel with a gang of young hooligans for protection?) 

He pays them to like him.   Hands out $100 bills.

No road games this year, but all home games are 3 hours away for me (in Pittsburgh now) so that will have to suffice UNTIL my kids are out of the house. 

damn, 3 hours sounds SOOO easy ..leave at 5 AM, home at 9..perfect day! But that is assuming you have a child old enough to drive on the way home!!!!?

You guys  will love Packer fans at Lambeau I guarantee it.

I only root against you guys one game every four years. (Unless we end up meeting in the Super Bowl, in which case, two.) Especially the last few years, because I went to high school with Jake Schum.

I go to at least one away game a year. I'll be at the Ravens and Vikings game for sure...and I sure would love to find a way to get to Lambeau, but being the week after the Vikings game, it's doubtful. U.S. Bank Stadium will be NFL stadium #15 for me.

Miami is always a fun away game given the weather and the fact 30-40% of the crowd are Bills fans. 

 

Also, I believe the recent stadium upgrades have made the games much more bearable because most fans are now in the shade.

I’m going to Minnesota, Houston and Miami. Any suggestions from those familiar with Minnesota and Houston would be welcome as I’ve never been to either. 

My recommendation is to join the Houston Bills Backers Group Facebook page. It's the best source of information.

 

I'll be in Houston as well as Miami.

Just a heads up..just canceled a 3 bed Airbnb on Chicago Street for Packer Weekend. All in less than $300 a night, bout a mile and a helf from Lambeau. Our group grew so i needed a bigger place. But if someone was looking for a place to stay that weekend, that should be back up on the AIRBNB site. It was no doubt best deal at 4PM on schedule day( or whenever the leak came out).

 

As a bonus, we have just upgraded to a house about a block from Lambeau!!!!

I'll check in closer to the date with more info on what to do in Houston.  If the last time the Bills visited is any indication, the local Bills Backers Bar will have festivities all weekend likely centered around Christians Tailgate Midtown on Bagby. 

 

I would recommend staying near downtown for nightlife and things to do/see as the area around the stadium is a barren wasteland.   The Hyatt and Magnolia have decent rates for game weekend right now.  You can take the metro from downtown to NRG for $1.25 or Uber for $10. 

 

For nightlife you will want to be in downtown, midtown or Montrose.  Each has their own scene and all are near downtown.  I'll follow up with a comprehensive list later but some must trys for local flavor would be fajitas and queso at El Tiempo and BBQ at Pit Room (get brisket or beef rib).

Also, I got a futon with minimal Dorito stains on it. $375 a night. Sam's Choice Cola included.

Awesome. I will be staying in midtown, about a mile from Christian’s. I look forward to your future post. Thanks!

Minny for me. Was deciding between there and Lambeau, but Minny won. Really want to see a game in US Bank. As an architecture buff, it's a gem.

I’ve been trying to follow along and find a Saturday night bills fan gathering for Minnesota but haven’t found it yet.

That stadium looks AMAZING! Minneapolis is a great town too. My first trip was to a certain SB that was less than wonderful, but I’ve been back a few times in the summer and it’s great!

I'll be with The Red Pinto Tailgate Group. ( Kenny ) 

We'll be at the Holiday Inn there on the north side of NRG.

Considering I live 90 minutes from Gillette you'd think I would go to more Bills/Pats games. But I don't.

I had a good time last Christmas eve at the game but understand why you wouldn't go that often. Gets a bit obnoxious.  I've never had a real problem there other than a bit of shoving at times.  Much worse at the Jets games in my opinion.

You couldn’t pay me to walk into that stadium. I havnt been to a lot of visiting stadiums but I’ve been to Cleveland, Pitt, and Jax and ALL were a better experience than the last home bills game I went to vs the pats. It happened to be just after Brady had come back in 16. Worst game experience I’ve ever had and it was in our own back yard so I can’t even freaking imagine going into their neck of the woods. 

 

NO. FRIGGIN. WAY.
