I recommend staying north of stadium near turnpike. I found it was real easy to get there and out since stadium is right off turnpike( I personally like Plantation which has a Courtyard with a Duffys sports bar within walking distance). Fans are generally nice and easy going. I have avoided endzones since it is usually where problems start in RWS. But still be safe due to some fans are jerks and thank your son for his service. Lastly I recommend staying closer to Miami than orlando because that is rough drive after a game(I live in Orlando)

A lot of excellent advice. Thanks everyone! We will be staying in Miami Saturday night and leaving for Orlando after the game. The vacation started out as a Disney vacation for my granddaughter, but then my son said he was returning at the same time and wanted to go. That's when we thought we'd include the game.

Thanks also to T & C for the Sabres game suggestion! We may changes our schedule again to attend that as well.

I now live in Fort Lauderdale myself. I can agree with the comments stating that the Dolphins fans are harmless. Most don't really even care about football, it seems.

You'll be in good company when there, plenty of Bills fans.

 

If you are tailgating, of course bring your gear and go nuts, but if you are just going to the game and want to dodge the parking fee, I have a hack for you.

 

Park next door at the Calder Casino and walk over, free parking. Some people even halfway tailgate in the parking lot there (discretely), go inside and have clean restrooms, etc too.

 

If you need any recommendations while down here, feel free to reach out. Always glad to help.
