I'd rather this not be the case in case I'm not able to watch but it is kinda cool. That's 2 of the past 3 years now right?

I was targeting this game but on Thanksgiving will be a no-go with the wife.  Odd she puts a family dinner over the Bills🤔.

I thought there was a rule that Thanksgiving was cancelled with the in-laws if there’s a Bills game. Is that just me? Am I the weirdo?

Just tell them that the Bills are a guest for dinner!

 

I had made plans to go to watch Bills in New Orleans and then Katrina occurred.

Unlike other airlines US Air decided to give credit for a year rather than a refund.

I was unable to make plans to fly that year so tried to use it in spring following year and was told "it was one year from date of purchase (I purchased ticket when game was announced) not cancelled."

I used to fly quite regularly and have not flown on US Air since.

I don't think anyone has flown US Air in a while, they don't exist anymore.

Don't like Thursday games, but it's the same time zone and not a cross country flight.  Saints look like a team ready to implode and go full rebuild.  Winston is the wild card.  He threw for a ton of yards and TDs so there is more talent there than this board gives him credit. Of course the turnovers are a major issue.  If he cuts those in half it would still be a lot but he would be a solid starting QB.  

I've been to NO several times but never for a sporting event.  I've always wanted to go to an LSU football game so maybe it will work out to go to both.  LSU plays at home on the Sat after Thanksgiving against Texas A and M!

Me too.  With family in Louisiana it makes it an easier sell.

 

It's about a 10 hour drive for me I think.

Nice. I absolutely loved the Thanksgiving game. We will be the late one this time though... early hours of the morning over here.... so must not over indulge!

 

Quit your complaining.  There's people in this world who never get to see the Bills play.

Are you seriously trying to tell me that watching Trent Edwards, Tyrod Taylor, JP Losman, Thad Lewis, Brian Brohm, Kyle Orton, Ryan Fitzpatrick, EJ Manuel, Alex Van Pelt, Drew Bledsoe, Jeff Tuel, Nathan Peterman, Kelly Holcomb and Derek Anderson leading our offense wasn't entertaining to watch?

For those anticipating going. I live down this way

 

1) Tix will be tough unlike Nashville so expect to pay a lot . I would book the hotels now. I just booked 10 rooms at the Nopsi 4 star for $200.00 5 minutes ago

2) Alternative fairly close airports, which would then include a car rental are Mobile Alabama, Pensacola Florida about 3 hours away. Birmingham , Alabama is 4.5 hours away

3) Also  the weekend of the Bayou Classic, Grambling vs Southern which is a very BIG game, so hotels will go very very fast

 

thanks

Roll Call?

 

I'll be there.

Ugh. I had this game marked as the ONE place i really wanted to go this year for my annual away trip. Thanksgiving makes it not likely..... looks like i'll be looking towards Nashville. The wife has been there and she said its amazing.

If I don't have my son that weekend, I'll go.  It's only a 3 hour drive for me.  Lets meet up.

Perfect opportunity.

 

"Hon, I think it's high time I took you on a vacation to show how much I appreciate all you do for me. We can spend some time together, and get some good food in a place known for it, and you won't have to worry about Thanksgiving dinner."

 

Of course, if you already live in New Orleans this doesn't work as well.
