ProcessTruster Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 (edited) When I had lower bowl season tiks years ago at the beginning of the drought (Bledsoe years), Pats fans would buy from Bills season tickets holders and fill the Club seats.. really bad vibe. Given the level of data analysis available today, does anyone know if there is a zip code analysis of StubHub/Ticketmaster buyers to see how many NE fans are coming? I believe there was some analysis available for how many Canadian citizens come. Really hoping 5,000 club seat and lower bowl season ticket holders did not sell their tickets to those guys for a national home game in prime time.

Nextmanup Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 Here's a crazy idea: get to your seat and wait for the game to start...then wait another 5 or 10 minutes. Then look around and see how many Patriots fans are in the building, cheering when NE does something good, or Buffalo does something bad. You should be able to guesstimate your answer. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It made a difference for me. I switched the location of my seats because I used to sit around a lot fans of the visiting team which annoyed me. I'm not sure if they season ticket holders selling their seats or just single game buyers (probably a combo of both). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FilthyBeast Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 Won't be surprised if there are at least 25% Pats fans at this game because Buffalo has always been a 2nd home field for the Patriots during the dominant run the last 20 years.

boater Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 Heh. Patriots fans love to travel to a Bills game because they can't afford Foxboro. They get the best of both worlds traveling to Buffalo: cheap tickets, and the fun of a road trip. Expect many of them Monday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Success Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 I'm not even so sure it's that Pats fans travel well. They're just everywhere now. When I grew up, half the kids in class liked the Cowboys. There are a ton of NE "fans" in western NY now. They're the new Cowboys. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually I would agree with you, but I can see the concern. National game, prime time, puts off a really bad perception if you look in the crowd and see 50/50 fans or anywhere close to it. The Bills don't need anymore bad perceptions, but to the point I *think* you were making, no it has no outcome on the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zow2 Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 At least it’s not like Vegas or the LA Chargers. Those teams never have a true home field advantage. So many visiting fans go on long weekend trips to root their teams on in those cities. I guess it’s good that Buffalo is not really a weekend destination city. But it is a bucket list type stadium for hard core NFL fans. i know quite a few who always tell me they really want to experience a game in Buffalo someday. And i’ve taken a few.

Governor Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 (edited) I sure hope someone on Twitter doesn’t bring attention to the fact that Pats fans are in those sections. That would devastate our national standing and make me sad. I already suffer from seasonal depression disorder in the winter months and adding this embarrassment would put me in a very dark place. It’s dark when I get to work and it’s dark when I leave work. Kay Adams will laugh at me right in my face when I was so close to getting her approval. We only have hours to find and stop these people and punish these turncoat ticket sellers. They need to know that they can’t treat us this way.
