yall Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 (edited) Personally I like the sound of "Red and Blue" better, but what do I know? So today is the big day! Who is going? Are you tailgating? What are your expectations? I heard they gave out 70k or so tickets, probably we'll see around 40k (unofficial guess ) I don't think we're doing a full tailgate but definitely will be having a few cold ones prior to going in. Looking forward to seeing the boys in action today! Edited August 5, 2022 by yall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewEra Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 I prefer a blue first. Blue is our main color. Red and white are accents. 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
machine gun kelly Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 All week the two morning shows H&J and the Extra Point kept stating as they weren’t sure only the lower bowl would be open. The article on the main page of TBD mentions 70,000 seats were given away and they have parking free. Thats awesome! I might even call one of the NFLR shows today just to let them know what fanatics Bills Mafia are and how they support this team. Last week on his Late Hits show (NFLR We’d nights), Polian was on with Vic Carrucci who normally doesn't cohost with him how special Bills fans are comparatively to the league. Polian opened the show saying how only GB and maybe the Steelers have fans as rabid as Bills fans. He pointed out how the Sabres haven’t been relevant in a long time (that was an understatement Amy sister works there) so Buffalo is a Bills city 24/7, 365. It was just so nice hearing him speak so fondly of the Bills and their fans. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yall Posted August 5, 2022 Author Share Posted August 5, 2022 3 minutes ago, YoloinOhio said: I know a lot of the season ticket holders just blindly grabbed six which appeared to be the limit. Granted that benefits me because that's how I got my six (from an out of towner) but I suspect a good number will go unused. Still it's going to be a truckload of people for a practice, and it's a testament to how rabid are fan base really is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott7975 Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 I got tickets and was going to go thinking only a few thousand would probably be there and my disabled ass could handle it. I dont think I can handle a huge crowd though so I am going to skip it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont think I can handle a huge crowd though so I am going to skip it. Normally, maybe about 10-15 thousand show up for these practices. Sounds like it will be closer to 40 (assuming many tickets go unused), so I am thinking of bailing. Not interested in getting trapped in that big a crowd for a practice.

Yeah, I would love to go but I thought this would be a small training camp type crowd. I have some disabilities that just doesnt do good in big crowds and because of that, I dont go to games anymore. I was thinking this would be a time I could go see the team. Its all good though. I hope people that go have a blast. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blank Stare Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 Looking a tad light in the stands for 70k in outstanding tickets if it starts at 5 (yes, I know, doesn’t mean 70k or anywhere near it will actually show).
