NewEra Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 4 minutes ago, PromoTheRobot said: No kidding. I'm considering a Vegas/Phoenix weekend in February for the Sabres. Golden Knights tix start at $150. A nice hotel pool will have to do. You can't be totally sure who's good from year to year but 2020 is looking like a challenging season with 4 western trips.. I might skip Vegas for the Cards in Glendale. I’m contemplating putting a party and tailgate together. Problem being, I’m selfish and the the added responsibility would likely ruin the game day experience for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Like A Mofo Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 I can see this game being a primetime game. Probably TNF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snafu Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 I love how the thread title says WGR -55. That seems about right. 44 minutes ago, Wayne Arnold said: 2020 Home: Seahawks Rams Chiefs Steelers Chargers Patriots Jets Dolphins 2020 Away: San Francisco Phoenix Las Vegas Denver Nashville or Houston Boston East Rutherford Miami That schedule is awesome. Looks rough the way teams are today -- a lot of good, tough games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klos63 Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 1 hour ago, NewEra said: They’ll be extremely easy to get. They’ll also be extremely expensive. biggest problem will be tailgating. I think it’ll be similar to New Orleans. Not much parking lot tailgating. There isn’t much room. watching the stadium being constructed over the last year+ has been pretty cool. Its coming together nicely. I'm not worried about tailgating. i'm guessing there will be some fun ways to kill time before the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJS Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 (edited) 3 hours ago, Kirby Jackson said: This is like the “Schefter breaking news” tweet that started the whole Bills Mafia movement. I heard the story, but I thought Nick Barnett was the advent of the Bills Mafia thing when he played here for a couple years. Edit: I see he was involved in it going viral: "The Bills fans reveled in having gone rogue and one of the leaders, a man named Del Reid, coined the hashtag #BillsMafia. Months later, former Green Bay Packer Nick Barnett signed with the team, saw the hashtag and tweeted his approval. Things took off from there, as they do in the social media age, and the zaniness grew even more when Johnson himself suggested a Bills Mafia handle. Reid launched that – @TheBillsMafia – and one Sunday morning in church his notifications blew up as fans across the region followed."

Lots to do, but as a Vegas resident, the thing I’m looking forward to most (regarding that game) is being able to uber to tailgate from my house, tailgate all morning, attend a Bills game, tailgate some more and be in my bed that same night. haven’t had that experience in 20+ years 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njbuff Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 This is not news. It would be news if the Bills were going to be the first opponent to play there in the regular season. I can really see this happening too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freddie's Dead Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 At first I'm like "I GOTTA GO!!!" Then I thought about it. Every time I go to Vegas, I like it less. Traffic, casinos taking your money at the tables and the parking garage, resort fees, game tickets prolly north of two Bills.... I can watch just as well at home.

Indianapolis has more of a chance to finish in second than Tennessee. Titans are 8-6, Colts will be 6-8 after tonight. Da hell u talmbout? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BADOLBILZ Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 (edited) Yeah I'm not missing that one. The Sabres actually play there February 28 so that's two sporting trips to Vegas for Buffalo fans in the same calendar year. The Raiders new stadium is unfortunately on the other side of rt 15 expressway(I think across from Mandalay Bay or Luxor?) so it's not going to be an easy walk like T-Mobile arena for the Sabres game.........the arena is basically attached to the NYNY casino.

This is your exact quote: “Indianapolis has more of a chance to finish in second than Tennessee.” Colts are 6-8 Titans are 8-6 Is it really “stupid and nonsensical” to think the odds favor an 8-6 team to finish ahead of an 6-8 team?

That should be a blast I have been there during Knights games thrice now including playoffs and it was fun even with Kings and Flames fans etc.. I expect the strip to be loaded with Sabres fans. I mean Feb 28 in Buffalo? What else to do? And it's a leap year so the day after is a freebie if the hangover keeps you inside all day. I will pm you as we get closer.

Vegas is great place to watch a hockey game. Great move putting that arena right in the middle of the strip. Should be fun. It'll definitely be loaded with Sabres fans.
