On ticketmaster I don't see anything for less than ~$125 (including fees) I was mistaken it’s actually lower https://x.com/FFMuzio/status/1706400358116008352?s=20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msw2112 Posted September 26, 2023 Share Posted September 26, 2023 I used to live in Chicago. I was offered Bears tickets a number of times for free, but turned them down. Regardless of how good or bad the Bears might be and regardless of who they are playing, I'd rather watch my Bills on TV than go to another NFL game for free. I did accept tickets to a game in Arizona once, but it was for a late game. My friends were not too pleased with me, because I spent the entire tailgate watching the Bills game on my phone, and then I continued to watch it on my phone all through the security line and during the 1st quarter of the Cardinals game, as the Bills game went into OT. Ironically, it was the snow game against Indy when Shady scored the winning TD, so I was in shorts and T-shirt in Arizona while watching the snow game on a phone. I find it very difficult to do pretty much anything else during a live Bills game, as my mind is on the game and not on the people I am with, the place I am at, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She offered me sideline tickets one day but the Bills game was on at the same time. The drought era Bills team mind you. I'm the same. I only get 17 of these guaranteed a year and I'm watching them all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, I did date a girl who worked for the XFL Chicago Team in the early 2000's, whatever they were called. Our relationship was brief and never resulted in tickets or sideline passes. Not sure which happened first - our relationship folded or the team/league folded. Too bad, because she was pretty high up in the organization, so the tickets and access might have been good. Or maybe the lack of access what why the relationship ended...It was a long time ago. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So who you got Broncos or Bears? Yeah we know what that was like... ... for about 20years... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reks Ryan Posted September 26, 2023 Share Posted September 26, 2023 We had our share of games in OP during the drought years, with plenty of tix available in the $20's or less. Although that was usually after Thanksgiving and Bills officially eliminated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wacka Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 (edited) Soon they will be giving them away. Fun watching an NFL game for absolutely free with no skin in the game. in the mid- late 90s when I was working at Stanford, The Raiders were playing the Patriots in preseason at Stanford Stadium (~80K). The school gave tickets away to students and employees. That was when the Pats stunk and I wanted to see how they bad they would be against the Bills that year. Had some gang-banger Raider fans sitting near me asking me why I wasn't cheering for them. I explained and they left me alone. 0-0 tie. Filled in on Scorigami 73 times, but not recorded since 1943.

They’re not that bad. That game was just a perfect storm. The Bears, OTH, are the worst team in the NFL. Too bad the hyper loop isn't completed yet.

MikePJ76 Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 this is the kind of game where if you leave two tickets in your car and run into the store...when you come out someone will have broken into your car and left two more.
