Aren't the idiots who do all the stupid **** doing it in the private lots?  Those are now going to be patrolled by police?  If so, finally...

 

If not, maybe the police can start fining the lot owners, that might change things.

Oh so more encroachment on private property rights by the growing police state? Cops can't PATROL private property without cause. Lawsuit.

It's been 6 years since they last hosted a prime time game because someone drowned at the last one.

Don't let facts get in the way of reality. Unless of course you suck at math and don't understand that 9/15/2016 was two years ago tomorrow.

They actually changed policy a few seasons ago, I believe in order to get your permit to run your lot you have to sign off on allowing police to patrol.

Non issue.

 

Many times over the years the Bills threatened to “crack down” om drunk and disorderly.  Even dedicated sections of the stadium as “alcohol free”.  Yeah. Sunday they may look twice at people, but no way the Pegulas destroy the cash cow that is parking. 

 

Anyways, th Bills lots are mostly subdued.  In fact, they booted Pinto Ron for squirting ketchup and mustard an himself before games.

 

And most important?  Private lots are not patrolled by the Sheriffs.  Those are the lots with the table slamming and fanny funnels. Unless someone starts cars on fire, sheriffs don’t have the manpower to patrol those lots.

Used to open at 7am, the 9:00 thing was league mandated about 5 years ago.

 

Yes, Bills lots open at 9:00.  Not one minute before, which they are extremely anal about.

Obviously I forgot. Ever happen to you? Sorry I don't have the schedule from every year memorized. I actually have a life.

I work driving entertainer coaches & a couple of week s back i did a run that took me to Wisconsin, Marc Bulger was the client he also had 2 of his friends with him which were none other than Jared Allen & Keith Bullock talk about some big boys ! 

 

But when i told Keith that i was a Bills fan he immediately said "Yah that Bills Mafia they love to party i use to love going up to Buffalo" I thought even the players know which teams have the best reputation for partying !!

 

With that said i read a article that "Lights Out" Shawn Merriman was going to come up to the game this week & if he got enough people to sign waivers that he was going to slam them through tables out in the parking lot before the game I guess that this means he won't be participating in the pre game fun !!

Shawn Merriman is somehow younger than Kyle Williams, even though it seems that his career has been all but over for a decade, and even though he still hasn't moved beyond the pathetic anything-for-attention stage that usually accompanies the end of an NFL career.

As an attorney I think that, rather than regulation of game day activities, the answer is to bring the folding table industry to justice. They have long known that their tables unreasonably tempt unsuspecting fans to jump on them from great heights after consuming large quantities of low cost alcohol products. There are no warnings against such forseeable uses of their clearly defective tables. The folding table industrial complex has preyed upon innocently inebriated fans for far too long. I have two words to say to Big Table, "punitive" and "damages".

Put a competent team on the field so maybe the game is more entertaining than the tailgate. 

I expect Gillete stadium to be empty  then.

It wasn't much different during the Superbowl years..there just wasn't facebook, twtter , instagram back then....tailgating has nothing to do with the team on the field

ECSO: No table slamming will be permitted at Bills' games

Buffalo Bills' fans headed to the game on Sunday will have to deal with new rules to curb excessive drinking prior to games, a new ticket policy and traffic changes.

 

they can't stop that , that is the only claim to fame we have left !

I would suggest as much as half the 80,000 out there (in the old days) were there to forget about their ****ty lives for a few hours and get hammered. 

 

The actual football game was totally incidental.

It only mentions tables, but it doesn't mention windows!

Everyone buy up as many large, pane glass windows as you can! They'll rue the day where it was only easily cleaned-up tables breaking as they walk through shattered glass for as far the eye can see! 

MWAHHAHAHAH!

But isn't that still the purpose of going out to watch football today as well? :lol:

If we want to remain the envy of millennial s football fans it’s time to end the table slamming anyways. The table slamming put the whole “bills mafia” thing on the map put it’s tired at this point. It’s time for some original material:

 

-I’ve suggested on a few occasions that people dress like the Sparrows from GOT and create a walk of atonement for visiting fans on their way into the stadium. Just follow them with the bell “shame, shame, shame.” That would be hilarious, and original (censored but still a touch NSFW):

 

- Also like the idea of re-enacting this scene from the Lion King where a baby in a Josh Allen Jersey is introduced to the crowd of adoring fans, from the top of a Zubaz painted school bus: 

 

Let’s bring some other original material.

Ridiculous!!   Next they are going to ban the excessive squirting of ketchup on ones face

What's so ridiculous? Tailgating is for having some drinks and bbq before the game. It shouldn't be about being belligerent and acting like an idiot. This is why I can see when they get a new stadium banning private lots.

A new stadium downtown where there is no parking and all this crap will go away on its own.  

 

If ticket prices are brought up to speed league-wide as well, this crap will go away even more.

 

This is why exclusive places charge high prices; it functions as a filter to keep low-lifes out.
