I've never really had a reason to leave and try to come back so I've never thought of it. I thought they had a designated area for smokers in the stadium. I don't smoke so I don't really pay attention to that, so now that you mention it I'm questioning if I saw that they got rid of those and eliminated smoking in the stadium altogether. No designated smoking areas. Again, it's a bad habit, but a bummer if you happen to partake in said bad habit. 1 hour ago, SinceThe70s said: This is admittedly off topic but kind of funny. Late 90's my friend got 4 seats down low behind home plate at Yankee Stadium. The other 3 went for a smoke and dismissed me when I said they probably couldn't smoke in the stadium. When they were approached by a security dude telling them they couldn't smoke where they were, they asked (flippantly) where they could. Security dude opened a gate and told them they could smoke out there. My brain surgeon friends didn't figure out they'd been ejected until they tried to get back in. As to OP and why you should go to a home game? Seems simple to me. You've been on a weeks long crusade about how awesome this years offense is so why would you pass up an opportunity to see it in person? Yeah. I'm not one to pull some BS like that, but every baseball/basketball stadium/arena I've attended had some kind of option. It is what it is. Had a good time because we beat the **** out of the Raiders and went to 5-2. How times have changed. I'd still go if given the chance because I live 2500 miles away and won't have many opportunities. I'm sure it's a much different situation for those in closer proximity. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not one to judge habits or what others do with their life. So don't feel the need to apologize at all. I drink, I wouldn't call that a great thing to partake in and the NFL sells beer. I'm surprised there isn't an area to smoke, but it has became so stigmatized that it's ridiculous.

I make it a point to never smoke around anyone. If I'm at a casino table, I'll get up if I need to smoke. Shoot, I'll turn away from someone if I'm outside a building. Just give us a tiny secluded area at the stadium and I'm cool. And I think the overwhelming majority of us drink. My hat is off to the Bills fan capable of complete sobriety.

It's so funny when you think back to the days with the huge Marlboro signs by the scoreboard in the 80's and 90's. Crazy how times change Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BullBuchanan Posted November 11, 2018 Share Posted November 11, 2018 I went to games all throughout the drought at the end of hopeless seasons when it was too cold and pointless for other family members to go. It was always a great idea. I don't remember quite a few of them, because those games were all about having a good time. One of those games was against the Jets and I was more excited to see Vinny Testaverde than the Bills. At least now you could watch some young players with hope, maybe even Allen.
