Over 29 years of fanhood Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 Had to share what I thought was a unique experience that just grows my bills fan love. was in a work conference call with our international team in México. one of the team members sent holiday wishes but the Santa in the GIF was adorned with bills colors and logo. turns out this person is a 30 years long bills fan from Mexico City. Commiserated all about superbowls, music city, all the players and drafts... his love of bills was rooted in family. our culture runs deep. 22 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edmoge70 Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 We are many Mexican Bills, I am one of them (Currently living in Houston) and have been for the past 30 years. I come in every day to the board to check on any news. My group already has tickets for the AFC championship game in Kansas, so hopefully see you there. 14 14 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaninSarasota Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 I wore my Bills hat to an MRI and then grocery shopping today here in Sarasota, and no less than 6 people chatted me up and said how much they wanted to see the Bills in the SB. Made my afternoon....! 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzonzo Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 (edited) 20 years ago I was working in a bank The american football here in argentina was a sport almost nobody saw or undestand At that time, I never talk about the sport or the bills, beacause every time I talk, the people look at me li if I was a rare person. One day, in a break I start to talk with a teammate and because I remembered he lived in US. Told him I like footbal (because I was desesperate to talk with somebody who undertand the sport). After few minute, he ask me if I like some team and i told "Bills". ¿He look at me and told me ¿"how do you know"? He was a bills fans! maybe the only two bills fans at that time in all the country. I need to name like 30 players and plays of the bills history and then he really believe me. Fast forward, The other day, after almos 10 years without talk, I send a wasap message..."In february I see you in the obelisc (the place where the people celebrate his team championship) Two minutes later, I recive his mesage "vamos los bills".

I was afraid it was in a Wegman’s parking lot! When we moved to Sarasota, Florida I was amazed to find so many Bills fans. All of that lost population had to go somewhere, and it was a safe bet many of them went somewhere warm! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Codyny13 Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 Bronx NY. Family are all die hard Giant fans, have 0 ties to western NY, although that’s changed now (1 cousin who’s a Buffalo cop, the other for nat’l grid.). People always ask how did I become a fan, and I can’t really answer, I was too young to remember. I do remember my mother calling me buffalo bill Cody, and a neighbor friend of mine Jesse...jesse James. My only thought was that I thought the team was named after me? The other was just being a punk child rooting against my family’s team in the super bowl, which is my first football memory. I was 5 and I still remember the look on my parents face when I was rooting for the Bills lol. Fast forward and now my family always supports the Bills, at least when they’re not playing the G-men. Now that I’m thinking about this is should really change my post name to BuffaloBillCody. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poblano Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 There is a long football tradition her in Mexico, at least 70 years, and during the early 90' the Bills fan base grew up, until now, with the Facebook groups you can notice the size of mexican Bills fans, there is at least 6 national groups (and several regional). I'm in a couple of those for a couple years back, and most of the members started in those years, and clearly It is starting to grow with the current results of the team 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob in STL Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 (edited) Yup. Been a fan since a tadpole back in 63. I’ve met Bills fans in so many states, and in many other countries, and from 5 continents so far. It’s always fun too.
