BuffaloBill Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 Love the dude pouring sand out of a paper bag on the championship field. Can you imagine this today? Now there is whining that there are not enough dining options, and the stadium egress is too narrow to efficiently move fans about as they seek their sheltered and heated seats. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah the “good old days”! I went to a lot of games at the Old Rock Pile. On cold windy days it sucked, nowhere to hide, I swear it was windy in the restrooms. I’ll take sheltered heated seats any day. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HomeTeam Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 Thanks for sharing. It's cool for us "younger" fans to get an appreciation of the history of the Bills. Jack Kemp sure seemed like a renaissance man. Successful quarterback/ leader and a great public speaker. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dock581 Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 As a Bills fan from when I was 12 to now at age 86 I have always thought Jack Kemp as a player was number one but more importantly also was a great person. Unmatched until now, but Josh is clearly better as a player and seems to be a great person. Go Bills and let's do it this year!! 4 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He announced he had cancer 21 years after he ran for President. He died 5 months later, age 73. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last cold weather game I went to was back on the Monday night game vs the Browns, I want to say back in 08. We bought 40 yard line seats about 15 rows from the field. The temp at gametime was a balmy 32. I had a thermal top on, thermal bottom, nice, big winter coat, hat, had hand warmers in my gloves, hand warmers in my boots, and I was STILL MISERABLE. Couldn't even much enjoy the game. It was back then I swore I would only attend games in September and October...... God just reading that makes me feel womanly....my wife wouldn't even attempt to go with me to the game so I took my 23 year old cousin who was in college at Niagara University at the time. At least he enjoyed himself. Edited July 17, 2022 by smuvtalker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least he enjoyed himself. And the current stadium is a palace compared to te Rock Pile. In the late 60s the Bills were bad, so bad weather late season games were far from capacity. I swear I remember people breaking up seats and starting fires. Burning the place wasn’t that big of a deal since everybody knew we were getting a new dome in Lancaster. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kemp's 'title" games were maybe the equivalent of a AFC Championships today, though with less competition. Kemp was a very good QB, but not elite. He's not in the HOF for a reason. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
