Augie Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 I’m also big on making the phone app easier for old farts to use. It’s NOT just having the app, but it’s having your location settings right (in a way I don’t prefer, as in always open), and several other options being just right. When I did it in Atlanta the first 2 tech guys were a wasted hour with no help. The 3rd guy got me set in minutes. For Atlanta soccer it was backed up with people who needed the on site tech people to assist. My Buffalo experience was similar. Like many things, if you have it up and running and use it frequently....no biggie. Use it every year or two? Not so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tuco Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Lose the train horn. That thing is annoying even if I'm watching on TV. Bring back the charging buffaloes and Fred & Barney. When lining up for kickoffs they should play that echoing base line from the beginning of Pink Floyd's One Of These Days. That would be cool. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be just like the pay and go systems like Apple Pay etc. You will open the app, bring up the ticket, and tap your phone on the reader. Done. Should cut done on the time needed to scan the ticket. Just remember that the ticket scan is after security, so that wait time will still be a wait time. If you are a season ticket member, both your season ticket card and phone app will work. If not a ST, you will need either the Ticketmaster or one Buffalo App. The actual bar code will be changing every 15 seconds, that is why screen shots will no longer work. Still unscrupulous people selling scam tickets, and they would send multiple people same ticket. Bills tell us 65% of the entire stadium tries to enter between 12:30 and 1, so that is why they are trying some incentives to get people in early. I usually get to the gate no later than 12;20 as i hate lines, the upper , upper deck potties are still pristine if ya need ta take care of some business, beer lines are short...and i never miss anything.

Some in my crew still have flip phones...ugh...so, the question is, can they get in using the ticket on my phone, say, I go in first then hand them my phone?

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" I can’t stand when teams do this. Anytime the chefs are on we have to mute the tv when they have the ball. It is very annoying The boxing bells are fine. The train horn doesn’t bother me either. It’s like a reminder that the crowd should be loud. Play the train horn non stop while the other team is in the huddle. 11 hours ago, stevewin said: I'd like the names of the 50% who love please I’m one of them. Fans for whatever reason get loud after the teams break the huddle and everyone already knows their responsibilities. I’d like more of the horn while opposing offenses are in the huddle. If the fans aren’t gonna attempt to disrupt communication the team should try with something loud and disruptive Edited June 6, 2019 by Not at the table Karlos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would either use up a lot of battery really fast and then the guy who’s phone has the tickets would die or it wouldn’t work at all and we would sit at the ticket taker holding the line up while someone figured out what the problem was. They offered a promo a couple years ago if you download the app but nobody could get the app to work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forward Progress Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 So if I need to take a leak at half-time, I will miss the Frisbee dogs!! I hope they live-stream the Frisbee dogs into the washroom, so we don't miss all the action!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ridgewaycynic2013 Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 “Topping tonight’s Eye Missed It News, Buffalo Bills brass were at a loss to explain why the Frisbee dogs attacked the Billy Buffalo mascot, tearing the seat from the costume and causing the intern inside to flee. There was some speculation the stadium train horn may have frightened the dogs. An effort is being made to find the previous mascot costume”. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
