plenzmd1 Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Hi all, Going into a meeting on Monday and was hoping you all may have some suggestions on enhancing game presentation and entertainment. Welcome any ideas, but please make them realistic. I will start with a couple..one suggested by me, one by @Hapless Bills Fan 1) By Hapless..a Viva Los Bills chant similar to the SKOL chant at Vikings game..maybe lead by the person "LEADING THE cHARGE" that week. 2) Some sort of walk/run out of tunnel song similar to VaTech. Any suggestions? I was thinking maybe the Ramones Blitzkreig Bop..Ey Oh..Lets Go..with everyone jumping up and down similar to Tech..but they may just be me and a bias to the music of my formative years. Any ideas on songs or anything else? 3) I also B word about getting Redzone on during TV Timeouts on at least one of the video boards, always seems to fall on deaf ears. Their response is Redzone is on the app if connected to Bills wifi..pain in my tuchas to pull the phone out o pocket, click app etc...just give me same entertainment as I would get at home...same with the halftime show. I would prefer that over the drummers. Can barely hear them in the Upper Deck anyway..and maybe more people stay in their seat and keep the concourses less crowded. I appreciate the help in advance folks.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aceman_16 Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 (edited) I would LOVE to see some video snippets of other teams that are "important" to the Bills. These may include special plays (hits, sacks, TDs) that occurred since last TV time out. Edited May 30, 2019 by aceman_16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aceman_16 Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Sorry... phone hiccup. Yeah teams from the AFC East OR IF it is towards playoff time - teams the Bills are competing against. TLDR: teams that affect them or their standing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 (edited) This may not strike the right cord ... All drunks must leave at halftime. I keed I keed Shout song after TDs (before) the PAT ONLY and obviously after a win Edited May 30, 2019 by ShadyBillsFan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judman Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 (edited) In addition to getting rid of the horn, I'd like to get rid of the first down boxing bell. Instead have the PA announcer say something like: "McCoy's 22 yard run results in a..." and after that prompt, the crowd says "First down Buffalo-o" (like the shout song lyrics "let's go Buffalo-o"). I heard Boomer Esiason interviewed once and he mentioned how fast the K-Gun was and they would be racking up the points and that it was especially bad when playing in Buffalo because "They'd keep playing that damn song" Edited May 30, 2019 by judman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freddyjj Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 3 changes as mentioned throughout thread please: 1. No train horn on 3rd down on D - maybe play Buffalo Stampede instead. 2. Play an entrance song for the team - Buffalo Soldier - especially if league relaxes weed rules ? 3. Bills Shout song after TDs and after Bills force a turnover. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every stadium needs an audible reminder that its 3rd down and the crown needs to be loud how else do you get the attention of the people glued to their phones? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gugny Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 I, for one, like the train horn. I know I'm in the minority, but I dig it. I've always liked, "Sirius," (AKA - intro to Eye in the Sky by Alan Parsons Project) as a crowd jacker upper. Would be a good entrance, segueing into something else. I (again ... in the minority) am also fine with the Shout song after field goals. Still a point-scoring drive. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BUFFALOKIE Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Not only is the train horn annoying AF, it does not even make sense. They play it on third down when the OTHER TEAM HAS THE BALL implying that it is hard to stop a train. WTF? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Info Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 This may not be in the direct In Stadium Presentation but relates to getting into the stadium. Can they do something to make the entrance pass thru security more efficient. Some facilities have Clear, PreCheck or other technologies to help expedite this process, Can the Bills do something more? Perhaps you can mention this even if not the right forum.

GottaRun Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Get rid of the train horn, we're the Buffalo Bills, go back to the sound of the stampede and the Buffalo stampeding on the big screen. The train horn is annoying af, why was it introduced? The shout song after field goals is pathetic, unless it's a game winning field goal. Bring in better known bands pre-game. Better known band = more people through security earlier = less line ups. Let people who have been season ticket holders a long time access via the club seat entrance line. Whatever they have to set the number at to be workable. Maybe 25 years or more? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you give the exact location in order to provide a service to your fellow Bills fans, or do you think that by telling us where you’ll be you will scare off any prudent fans also in need of a potty?

Thanks i thought this was much better last year. Granted I usually leave Hammers no later than 12.10, usually in line by 12.20 and in the stadium before 12:30, always Gate 2. Did you have issues last year? No doubt 17 was a mess, which they admitted to. Did you still have issues last year? Also, I have never been to game with "TSA" type access..that would be awesome! I would pay the $100 for a background check that let me just walk through a metal detector or something 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mead107 Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Get through gates fast with club seats. Horn ok but they could do a herd of Buffalo getting louder and louder. Can you suggest that owners come over for Stromboli ? maybe get into the mustard and ketchup show one time? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
