Still love the area, but I don’t want to be cold for long periods of time. 14 minutes ago, Beast said: They are calling for earthquakes Sunday at game time.

Not gonna lie...have talked about being in Florida from after Thanksgiving to March once the kids graduate from high school...that's a while away tho.

I love my kid but that's a $3000 nut before I buy a beer, need 3 seats. Looked at the same and couldn't believe the price... Year ago much cheaper but this is a big game.

When I went back I figured the ticket was just one drop in the travel bucket, so go all out - it’s the reason you are there. A few years back I spent a game in the upper deck and the views were great. I hope they are equally good in the next stadium……downtown under the dome. Is that an automatic ban for mentioning that at this point? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the hundreds saved can get a nice down jacket! Plus, it's hard to imagine that those french fry lights are that efficient or precise.

Being able to get out of the cold in the heat of the club is really a huge advantage too. Best part about the club is tipping your bartender well early, run a tab, and you will always get your beers first in a crowded situation!

Around February tho, people start getting really antsy for winter to be over... Can't imagine what it must be like in places like Alaska where you don't see light for 2-3 months at a time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guaranteed to keep your feet warm through the fourth quarter. or you can get yourself some of those new-fangled fancy pantsy electric socks. Right on! I remember my mom used to make us put our feet in bread bags before we put on our boots when we would go out to play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheFunPolice Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 it's 50 degrees today in Buffalo. December 7. A little high, but pretty typical for December for years now. "Buffalo winter" begins in January and goes through early March. I mean, it's cloudy, foggy, and rainy for months though, which is far from "nice." The occasional big snowstorms make headlines and capture peoples' 3 second attention spans, but winter in WNY is not all that bad snow/cold wise.

zow2 Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 The big weather variable in Orchard Park is always the wind. Wind makes a huge impact and it's only predicted to be 5-10mph for this Jets game. There's no major issue throwing in the rain if winds are light. Just look at the Jets game a couple weeks ago vs Chicago. It was a friggin downpour at MetLife and Mike White threw 78% completion, 315 yards and 3 TD's. He had no issues.

White had a huge game a couple weeks ago in the rain. The "Ugggg" was more about sitting in the rain. If the winds are 10-15mph as now predicted (at least on the weather.com app, with rain, then yes, I think passing can be challenging and controlling the ball with a strong running game could benefit the team. I think the Bills win regardless of the weather. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually park at ECC south lot if some equipment came to make it flat and build ice stairs……. I did a drive around ECC for this exact reason. Lot A of ECC south is completely blocked.

I’m not the driver. I think it is lot E we park in. To the stadium you have a grass field with a draining dip in it, thrn you cross the street, and into the stadium lot. i read that they dumped much of the excess snow into that grass field Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
