El Guapo Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 30 or so. Living in Alabama, I try to make it to a couple of home games a year. If they are close for an away game, I’ll go. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drunken Pygmy Goat Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 (edited) Three First was @ Miami 2012. It was horribly one-sided officiating, Chandler blew his knee, and Spiller had a 60+(iirc) yard run that nearly went for 6. Also got to see some drunken Dolphins fan get beat up by a couple redneck Dolphins fans. Second was 2013 @ Jacksonville. This was Manuel's first INT on a HB screen...we all remember his second one...Chad Henne had a field day, but Gilmore sealed the W with a late INT. Third was VS Denver 2017. First home game for me. Days after Trump made his comment about players kneeling. Awesome tailgating, but hot as hell...92 degrees is crazy for late September in Buffalo. Flew up from Florida the day before, and it was hotter in WNY on Sunday. Von Miller's "sike" pretty much sealed the game. And some lady stole a ketchup dispenser...

dlonce Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 Been to between 450 to 500 games. Had season tickets for decades, Im getting old. Just took my 5 year old Granddaughter to her first game. I remember my first game at The Rock pile. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GottaRun Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 Been to about 120 games. None on the road but I did go to the game that was moved to Detroit and to the Toronto games. No idea what their record is when I attend but seeing as I've had seasons for the last 16 years I'm going to assume the record is bad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 I'm somewhere around 35 games attended, home and away. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blacklabel Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 First one was a pre-season game in '96 against Minnesota. Next one was a regular season game against the Raiders in '98. Home opener vs. Pats in '03. Home opener vs. Jags in '04. Home opener vs. Pats in '13. Week 15 vs. Packers in '14. Home opener vs. Colts in '15. I think that's it. I know I've been to a few other pre-season games but I can't recall those off the top of my head at the moment. I'd have to dig through the ol' ticket stub box at home. I only remember the Minnesota game in '96 because it was the very first game I'd ever been to. The best one was the '03 opener against the Pats. The big win over the Packers in 2014 is a close second, crowd may have been louder during that one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's No Moon Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Just now, Augie said: You, sir, are just trying to get us to buy you Season’s and handle your travel expenses! Well, if a Sugar Daddy wants to pay my way I wouldn't decline but my son's hockey schedule is a major problem. I'll be lucky to see more than a handful of games on TV this year let alone in person. You'll notice I've been pretty selective in the games I've picked to drive up to. Notice who is missing. That's not accidental and it helps my win percentage. I've come up with my parents and my wife most of the time which means nothing later than the 2nd week of November generally and when you know you're only doing one game in a year, that you are buying tickets for in July, that's 7 hours away you want to try to pick one they will win. I know that makes me lesser, but I'm not putting down the money and the time to watch Brady kick them in the balls for the 18th time. Yes it means I missed the one time we beat them. I'll get over it. I've seen better wins. In fact, God Bless YouTube. I was showing my son some games from 1990 on YouTube. He's 13 and he's never seen the Bills be good. He's heard the names of Kelly and Thomas et al but until then he never saw them play so it was cool to be able to share cool moments with him that way. Last night we watched the Bills/Broncos game from 1990 where they scored 3 TDs in 77 seconds and we watched Bills/Jets MNF when Thomas ran for 218 yards on 18 carries (yet somehow didn't score a TD). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I go to games, have a good time, but never kept track. Of course, I go way back, but when the numbers get up there, no way I could say for sure. I MIGHT be able to loosely count Bills road games as it’s a more manageable number, and more memorable event. I would say most, if not all of us, who have been to a large number of games at some point used published data to get to the W-L totals. I doubt anyone starts off with a log after their 1st game. I knew what games I was at because I've either gone to 1 or 2 games in some seasons & those are easy to remember, or like many years, I went to every home game. With a record like that it's pretty easy to go to a published source to get each game's score. I finally converted my hand written log to a spreadsheet. The replies to the question helped motivate me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whites Bay Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 About 30, including two away Jets games and one Pats* game. My brother and I had seasons during the glory years (and 2005, after I got suckered in following 9-7 in 2004...), and as exciting as the first AFC Championship game was against the Raiders, and the Comeback Game (yes, I was there, and have the stub to prove it), the one that sticks out was the December 23rd 1990 game against the Dolphins. The one where the fans stormed the field and tore down the goal posts. The one where Paul Maguire famously said something like "They'd better get those horses out of there. These fans are going to beat up the horses". It had a surreal feeling, like Field of Dreams. We weren't supposed to be on the field, but we and 65,000 of our closest friends were. Hard to describe this to young fans today. I mean, you'll NEVER be allowed to storm the field or tear down goal posts again. You're talking a night or two in the county slam. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you could, but you'll need people coming over the wall in waves. Sure the first 10-20 might get arrested, but once you get 100-200 on the field, the rest will come. I just hope when it happens, it's because the Bills clinched a playoff berth, and people are respectable and don't tear up the field for mementos.

KBeats Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 20-25. First was Wade's home opener against the Rams (Banks TD in the last minute), last one was Tennessee last year. Had seasons for Doug's last year and Rex's first, and a few other games sprinkled in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
