Have you seen Allen Street on any weekend night? Any University Heights houseparty? St. Patty’s Day/Fourth of July/any holiday with drinking and partying? A move to Buffalo isn’t going to curb drunken behavior if that’s what people want to do. Edited May 1, 2019 by eanyills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overpriced in my opinion.. $15 dollars per person, if the chartered vehicle is full. If you're in a half filled bus.. your cost goes up. $8 to $10 bucks would been more reasonable.

LabattBlue Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 (edited) So for $15 a person you get tables, chairs, a tent, and the honor of having to drag all your tailgating needs from your bus to the tailgate village, and back to the bus after the tailgate, but before the game. But wait...don't bring your own food and beverage, for another additional charge, we will cater it for you...ISN'T THAT JUST AWESOME!!!!!

RiotAct Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 5 hours ago, Seasons1992 said: I waited a long time to get to this thread on page 2. This is exactly it. The people I see acting terribly and giving the tailgate experience a bad public view are all pretty young and not of the "winning" generation between 1988-2000. It's solely an event to get blasted and who gives a crap about the actual game. ***Please note: I've met PLENTY of great, younger fans, at Hammer's Lot and elsewhere around the stadium in the past five years and of course there's always a few duds that ruin things for the rest of us. @LeviF91 you fit into the good group along with all of @plenzmd1 's myriad kids, adopted strangers, and vagabonds. @mead107 definitely needs to clean up his act, however.........?.*** Hmmmm. We should start a "Royal Rumble" thread about the 30 filthiest brawlers on TBD and who would win in the end........ speaking of the Hammer Lot, maybe @Hammered a Lot can start thinking of annexing the Bus/Limo lot.... hmmmm... ?

The Pre game tailgating has been a central point to Bills games for 40+ years fathers have given their sons the love for the Bills and passed down generations of traditions tailgating And Ed Oliver specifically mentioned table smashing and Bills mafia as to why he is excited to play here... our fans are passionate it has nothing to do with boozing unless you make it that.. it has to do with PASSION for the Bills You used to be able to bring a keg of beer into the stadium and full liters of whiskey. Things are way lamer than they used to be. No social media back then. People just did it. To find out that it happened you had to know someone who did it or saw it. Otherwise nobody knew. Now, everyone sticks their nose in everyone else's business. The partying antics of today are way, lamer than they used to be. Doing shots out of a chic's butcrack? Who cares if he likes the taste of it - knock yourself out. Some dude lights himself on fire. No big deal. Don't care. It is only a big deal because of people thinking their opinion of everything matters and people sticking their nose where it doesn't belong. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BringBackFlutie Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 (edited) 7 hours ago, Logic said: I've been around and around with fans on this board about this, but I'm not a big fan of the fact that when you mention Bills fans to people, the first thing that comes to mind is drunkards jumping through tables. I like the notion of the fan base being recognized for loyalty to the team, persistence through bad weather conditions, etc..The fact that, instead, people just immediately equate Bills fans with drunken and destructive behavior is, to me, an embarrassment. This is where everyone jumps in and says I'm a kill-joy, that people are entitled to enjoy themselves however they want, blah blah blah. That's fine. My position stands. The gameday experience for many has become more about over-indulgence and "look at me" shenanigans than about football. It's just not my scene. To each their own, but I'm not fan of that aspect of the #BillsMafia experience. I don't mind being known as drunken fans. I do mind being known as people who turn tailgating into a frat party and do really stupid, dangerous stuff that has little to do with the game. I guess, for me, it would at least always need to be a body slam of an opponent fan via a Bills fan. It needs to be Bills-themed. The real problems, to me, are that whoever does it will have been drinking, and that the act is less a Bills tradition, and more a viral drunken stunt. I'm fine with stuff like drinking out of helmets or whatever other non-violent drinking games people come up with. It's just that we've switched from the drinking town with a football problem (funny and understandable), to drunken degenerates that seem to have connected tailgating more to drunk-inspired activities than to football-inspired activities, during which we happen to drink heavily.

Putting a consistent winner on the field might accomplish this, but if the trend continues it won't . 20 years of mediocrity and still the attendance is good thanks mostly to tailgating.

Hammered a Lot Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 8 hours ago, Capco said: The law enforcement at the games are massive dbags, but when you're corralling thousands of drunk people (especially after a loss), things are bound to get hectic. If people want to see less cop beat downs, one way to do that is to curb the drunken, reckless behavior in the parking lots. I understand that won't stop butthead cops from being dbags though. Once we were walking to our cars when our buddy got into a pissing match with a sheriff deputy. His brother goes to tap the cop on his back shoulder to ask what's going on, at which point the cop's partner body checks the brother against a fence, screaming "Don't you EVER put your hands on a LEO!"

He is only free to do those things in his own home, where he's liable. His attitude is the real problem here. He does not have the rights or freedoms to do that ***** on someone elses insurance.
