BillsfanAZ Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 My house is Bills territory no matter where I live.....unless my wife sees this then it is half Bills and half 49ers territory. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo ill Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Idaho, basically Seahawks country. As a young lad in the 80s, I didn't really have a team. I saw a Bills logo on a tv guide, and thought it was cool. Thus, I decided to become a Bills fan. That was the "Bickering Bills" season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick the Greek Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 20 hours ago, MichaelAbdallah said: It should be, but I don't think it is right now. A decade's worth of playoff competitiveness under Beane, McDermott, and Allen should change that. Ideally what would constitute "geographic Bills territory" would be every county in NY state north of Rockland and Westchester, as well as the Golden Horseshoe of Canada. When I say "ideal" Bills territory, I'm referring as much to cultural and socioeconomic similarities with Buffalo as I am with geographic proximity (yes, I realize that many of you will take issue with the Hudson Valley ever being considered Bills territory). It's a bit of a tragedy that the utter incompetence of this organization during the 21st century has meant that the Patriots, Giants, and Steelers have taken over large swaths of what should have otherwise been our young coming-of-age fanbase. I call it a tragedy because it affects things like stadium funding and the long-term viability of the franchise in Buffalo post-Pegulas (which may very well be many decades away). Also, a bunch of Cuse morons jumped on the Philly bandwagon when they drafted Orangeman Donovan McNabb. This always irritated me. That said, Syracuse NY is BILLS country!! And it always will be.

kkim0904 Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 Lived in buffalo during my childhood in 80s and 90s after immigrated from Korea. Now, i live in Long Island NY. My two boys born in NYC are now BILLS fan. It was two years ago my older son who is teenager finally gave up his OBJ Giant. It took a lot of patience and perseverance,, and money. I cant wait to go back to attend the home against patriots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostly cowboy fans here, mixed in with some Texan and Saint fans. I have come across a stray Bills fan every now and then. It's a struggle in my house, my wife and her side of the family are all big time cowboy fans Like most here, I grew up in the Buffalo area (Kenmore/Town of Tonawanda) but lived for about 5 years in Dallas in the early 80's. In 1984 the 0-11 Bills were playing the mighty Cowboys. I proudly wore my Bills shirt to the down home country boy breakfast joint, and got a lot of stares, some chuckles. Oh what a joyous day when we won, against all odds! Living in Atlanta area the last 29 years but will always be a Bills fan! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With FL being a red state the ACA wasn't adhered too as much as it was in NY. A fair question indeed. I am going to have to go back into the workplace soon specifically due to health care.

Ya I am living the dream in Paradise here. I live right over by the Sarasota airport. 15 minutes from the beach, 6 minutes from the front door of the airport, 45 mins from St. Pete, now thats a fun place, plenty of microbreweries around me.
