Remem when Coach85 needed plans for 1st home game?

[COACH85]

GUFFALO has helped with the tremendous plans.

Now we need help with purchasing two great seats with money no object.

We also would like to attend a great tailgate party before game as well as a Sunday night hotel reservation recommendation for somewhere close to the Ralph and the airport.

We already have our hotel reservations for the Fri and Sat at Sheraton on the Falls like Guffalo suggested.

QUOTE(COACH85 @ Mar 8 2005, 10:25 AM)

I know the schedule isn't out yet but does anyone have an idea when it will be released? Also, my wife and I are newlyweds and part of the "prenup" was for her to become a die hard Bills fan. Lucky for me, she wanted to be one anyway.

We want to plan a fantastic weekend in Buffalo for the Bills first home game next year with a Saturday visit to Niagra Falls.

We need help/suggestions for:

How to acquire top notch seating somewhere between the 30 yardlines -

Great places to eat -

Really nice hotels -

Best rent a car company -

Must see sites or attractions time permitting -

Money is not an issue for anything although we don't want to be stupid and overpay for things we don't have too.

Any ideas or suggestions is greatly appreciated since this is our first trip together to see a Bills home game (we saw Bills at Jets last year in the Meadowlands).

This is also the first visit for me to a Bills home game since the Mike Ditka undefeated Bears came to town back in the 90's and the Bills crushed them.

We are really excited about this trip.............please help!!!

WE WILL BUY TWO GREAT SEATS FOR WHOEVER CAN COME UP WITH THE BEST PLAN FOR OUR WEEKEND!!!!!

Thanks,

Coach and Dorisel in Virginia

 

 

 

 

 

Your whirlwind trip begins Friday, at the gateway to the Niagara Frontier with a perfect landing in the new and improved Buffalo/Niagara Falls airport. Directly across from the arrival gates, you can choose from any of the major rental car companies, but from Avis, we have selected a convertible class car (329 +tax) for pickup Friday.

 

Your first stop, Checking in at the Sheraton on the Falls (269 CDN) where you are a short, scenic walk to the falls, For dining, we have selected sumptuous dining in an elegant atmosphere, Casino Niagara’s own CAA rated four-diamond restaurant - Twenty One features a diverse menu of steaks, seafood and pasta selections.

 

After dinner, the nightlife awaits... Casino Niagara features over 96,000 sq ft of gaming space with a total of 123 gaming tables and over 3000 slot machines. Tables are accessible for persons with disabilities. Casino Niagara offers a wide assortment of gaming tables such as: Blackjack, Roulette,Mini Full Size Baccarat (12 players),Baccarat (9 players) Mini Baccarat (7 players),Caribbean Stud Poker,Big Six ,and Pai Gow Poker (Chinese Poker) .

 

Saturday morning will find you refreshed and in awe of the spectacular Niagara Falls views, spend the morning strolling along the Niagara Falls park and take a ride on the Maid of the Mist (10-15 Cdn).

 

After checkout, head back over the bridge to the Adams Mark Hotel, downtown Buffalo, Where a short drive away is the Anchor Bar, home of the Buffalo Chicken wing, served with an assortment of fine ales, your lunch is topped off with sovenier hot sauce and T shirts from the cradle of Wing movement.

 

After lunch, a quick trip along the Elmwood strip for some shopping and window browsing from local artisans and craftsman, take in the unique and diverse architecture along the Elmwood area and the Delaware park scene.

 

After visiting the Albright art gallery or just shopping along Elmwood, a trip to the hallowed grounds of Ralph Wilson Stadium to finish your afternoon, Greet the early tailgaters as they prepare for the beginning of the 2005 campaign, as you head to the Bills Pro shop adjacent to the Bill practice facility. Depending on your time of arrival, you may catch some of the players as they head home from practice!

 

Based on your mood, Dannys near the stadium is the usual home to the TBD pregame party, where dinner and drinks are shared, or head back to Buffalo for some more elegant dining and partying along the Chippewa district. a short cab ride from the Adams MarkHotel.

 

This vibrant area is now the cornerstone of the Buffalo nightlife and after dark crowds.

 

Sunday morning, Where else would you rather be, than right there, at the Ralph? Hammers parking lot hosts the TBD 6th annual tailgate, starting at 7:30Am (only diehards make it that early, 830 am in fine). After being greeted by TBD members, feel free to enjoy the wings, sausage and other delicacies from the TBD group. Your tickets to the game could be with these fine people, or through other sources (depending on your preferences).

 

Pre-game musts, include the NFL experience in the Bills Practice facility, and Pinto Kenny's pre-game extravaganza is a requirement for all new Bills fans (be there no later than 11:15, and stay close to the front!)

 

After the game, post victory celebrations abound in alll the parking lots, allow the traffic to settle before heading back to the Hotel, and continued festivities with Bills fans. Monday, catch the paper and the local news of the big win, and head back to the airport.

>"Well ya see, Norm, it's like this... A herd of buffalo can only move as fast as the slowest buffalo. And when the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first. This natural selection is good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and health of the whole group keeps improving by the regular killing of the weakest members.

In much the same way, the human brain can only operate as fast as the slowest brain cells. Excessive intake of alcohol, as we know, kills brain cells. But naturally, it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells first In this way, regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker brain cells,making the brain a faster and more efficient machine. That's why you always feel smarter after a few beers."
