Clark Rotary Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 We arrived in NOLA on Sunday and have watched the build-up of Bills fans on the street to the point where I think that half of the people in the French Quarter are wearing Bills gear. Lots of “go Bills” and occasional Let’s Go Buffalo chants. I’m amazed at the variety of Bills gear out there and really need to up my game. What are others seeing? 16 6 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirAndrew Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 Very jealous, seems like a great way to get over last week’s loss. Hope all of you down there have a great time. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJS Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 My wife is having fun yelling "Go Bills!" to people on the street. She isn't much of a football fan but is having fun with the fan take over regardless. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Success Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 I mean - is there a better city for an away game, during a holiday that's all about eating? Sounds awesome. I always wanted to try crawfish stuffing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utah John Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 So has New Orleans recovered from Hurricane Ida? That was just a couple of months ago, and the damage seemed very severe. I'm glad Clark is having a good time there. I came to love that city from making so many trips there when my daughter went to Tulane. As the song says, "I know what it means, to miss New Orleans." You can keep Bourbon Street as far as I'm concerned, but there is so much great about the place if you stay away from vomit alley. 3 hours ago, JohnNord said: Can’t believe how many fans are there Did anyone ask them to play the Shout song? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFanSD Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 Great time so far. We made it down to the parade at Ryan's pretty much immediately after checking in and dumping our luggage. I figured this was just going to be a bunch of fans milling around, but marching through the French Quarter with a band and police escort was really cool. They needed like four times the bar staff, but it was the middle of the afternoon on a Wednesday so let's cut everybody some slack I guess. Now we just need to kill a few hours before going out for Thanksgiving, and do our 1/11th to get this nonsense sorted out. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichRiderBills Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 I get torn from being pumped and from the feeling it is a huge jinx. Like I said, these games where tons of coverage on Buff invasion always seems to bite us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reks Ryan Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 Having a great time here in Nola. Have enjoyed talking w Saints fans. Had a couple beers w a 45 year old guy who said 90’s Bills were his favorite except for Saints. He talked in depth about everyone from Kent Hull to Carwell Gardner. Also sat w 2 long time bartenders who told me no one travels like Buffalo, except Wisconsin. They said Packers and Badgers might have us beat in crowd size and alcohol consumption. Also said Bills and Packers are good tippers. They don’t like fans from Chicago or Boston. Too obnoxious 5 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlCowlingsTaxiService Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 Bills Mafia has acquitted itself well here in Nola. I’d say it’s just a notch below the Nashville takeover in terms of fan presence, but an impressive showing nonetheless…and I avoided the post Bourbon Street hangover, so all good 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BringBackFlutie Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 I'm connecting in Newark on my way to other places. When I left Dulles, it was packed with Bills fans and the TSA guy at the checkpoint told me I was one of MANY Bills fans he's seen in the past few days (I'm wearing a Bills hoodie). I also ran into a NO native on the shuttle to my gate, who told me, "you're going to kill us. And our city is FILLED with Bills fans right now." 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAJBobby Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 Will be back to traveling to every game next year. I was planning on it this year. But too many things in life going on. So only going to Buffalo for the Home games. Will be back traveling to all games next year. After our Move is all complete and settled in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
