The Bills were BAD and the play on the field was ugly. There was no limit of beer sales and by halftime drunk Bills fans were turning surly. There were fights all over the stadium and full cups of beer were being thrown all over the place. Anyone who got out of there that night without wreaking of bad beer had to have been wearing a disposable rain parka, and the weather was dry. That’s sounds lovely! I can see how you could get hooked after an evening like THAT! ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks I was there, drunk as a pig but I was there? I was also at the Jets game that was one of the other coldest Bills games. We were spoiled by those teams, hopefully we are at the beginning of a new golden age. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Marino 13 of 28 for 165 - 0 - 3 (eventually pulled in the 4thQ) Jim Kelly 15 of 21 for 217 - 2 - 0 Went to that game, and then saw Wayne Gretzky and the Oilers that night at the Aud. 1 hour ago, TigerJ said: It may have been the worst Bills game of all time.

That's a totally apt description. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocket94 Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 Used to go on these bus "excursions" provided by a local bar. More than half of the fans were bombed before we even arrived at the stadium. They would pass out on the bus and miss the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo86 Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 Bills vs Eagles Dec 27, 1987 700 level of Veterans Stadium, Philadelphia, PA We lost, 7-17. I remember my dad remarking that the Bills' QB (Kelly) kept hitting his receivers in the hands & they were dropping everything. I also recall fearing for the safety of the one antagonistic Bills' fan, who was pelted with numerous half-filled beers. We finished 7-8 that season (strike), but we'd make the AFC Championship game the following year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably- I just looked it up saw & he had 4 sacks in that game. None of it rings a bell, but it was 30+ years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enemarty Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 October 7, 1973 Bills v. Eagles I have lots of memories of that game, but no need to list them when you can watch it. Great thread. Without it, I never would have googled the game and come across this old NFL Films Game of the Week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwksilver Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 10/22/78 Bengals at Buffalo Bills win 5-0 (probably only time that score ever happened). I was 8 and only real memory was the size of the stadium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nelius Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 11/1/93 Redskins at Buffalo Bills win 24-10 I remember tons of snow, and I was freezing. Granted it was only November 1st so it probably wasn't that bad but I was pretty young and I remember it being really cold. Also remember Andre Reed's TD. I just checked his game log and he went off for 7-159-1 in this game. Beast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

notwoz Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 August 17, 1973. First preseason game (and first game) at what was then called Rich Stadium. Washington Redskins were the opponent. Missed the first quarter and part of the second quarter because of traffic issues. Don't remember the score, but it seemed to be a one-sided game in favor of the skins.

We could see the lights of the stadium from the thruway bridge while listening to kickoff return call on the radio. Ahh memories! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a great contest to fill out the sheets. My buddy and I each got footballs after collecting "X" number of sheets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
