Hey man. We have a Bills Backers bar in Milford CT (it's a ride on the metro north). I personally love Kelly's in NYC (around 1st and 1st). But if those places aren't available and if you are open to a little bit of a ride, feel free to join us:

Let me guess. You are the good looking one in the Bills gear?

I think McFadden's closed... God I remember the first year it was open, with the all you could eat wings and bottomless pitchers for $20. 😵

I was at McFaddens once with the wings-beer special too. You had to arrive early to get in. I stood in line next to a guy from Newfane who was my ex high school friends neighbor. lol

 

Thats a part of what makes the mafia so cool. we are Connected as soon as you hear a "Go Bills" It could be NYC or it may be here in san diego.  I stood in line at the home opener next to again some high school friends CHILDREN. I'm 65 so it makes sense. I mean just Wow.

 

Bext of luck finding a good venue. It's so cool being around the homeys 🙂

Smart, charge only $20 for a Bills fan and endless wings.  No wonder they’re closed.  Too easy Motorin.

 

But of course a gallon of gas was about a quarter. Yeah, I remember that!  Thanks for making me feel old. 

 

 

Again.

That was almost 25 years ago, but it was a ***** show.


Motorin, it could’ve been 1985 and still would be a bad call with Bills fans.  Back then I could way out drink $20 even at those prices would’ve bankrupted a bar, not to mention the wings to boot.  Thank god, I slightly grew up.

Slightly

Maybe it was $25 😂 And this is the kind of frenzy that place created. I give you 2008's week 3 win over the Raiders:

turns out I will be in NYC Sunday for Pats game.  Any suggestions on where to watch the game?  I will be midtown east - around East 48th st.


Charlie, I’m guessing you looked it up, but NYC has the Bills/Pats game so it’s going to be on everywhere.  I know it’s always fun being in a Bills Backers bar, but you can go into any sports bar and you’ll find Bills fans.

Duse that looks exactly like what O’Briens in Brandon, FL is like weekly.  Brandon is an east suburb of Tampa.  If you’re ever down here, you’ll love it.  They have announcers for the 1st down, shout song, and so on.

? NYC has the Giants game. 

 

On a side note, I'm surprised we have the game with the Buc's playing at the same time.

NYC is not showing the Bills game. They are showing the Giants game.

The NYC backers meet at Penn 6.

The North Jersey Backers meet at the Stone & Rail in Glen Rock. But that may be too far to be an option. It is steps from the train station, if you don’t mind a bit of a ride.

Penn 6 is awesome for game day. Wings are pretty good too.

I'll be at Penn6 tomorrow 👍

 

It's no McFadden's, but it'll get the job done.

 

McFadden's used to be incredible... but I would imagine it was a bad deal for the bar. They gradually upped the wrist bands from $20 to $45 all you can drink and all you can eat wings for 4 hours. Man, those were the days. I went almost every Sunday and it was standing room only even during the drought. 

 

Late season, when we were playing for draft position every year you could sometimes get a seat at the bar, but otherwise, packed and rowdy.

That's about how I remember it from my first visit there which I think was in 2011.  The Bills had a great start that season and McFaddens was so crowded that the overflow went into the bar next door.

Is McFadden's still the backers bar?

McFadden's closed a couple years ago, the NYC Bills Backers club now meets at 

 

Penn 6, 132 W 31st St. https://www.nycbbb.com/

 

NYC Bills Backer is large, pretty well organized group.  They go at it pretty hard on game days.

What is Penn 6 like?

 

I see they're in Midtown and that they have an oyster bar.

 

Are they more upscale than the typical sports bar?

 

Are they pricey by Bflo standards or do they have gameday discounts?

 

Here's their lunch menu:

Here's their brunch menu:

There's mention of "spiced wings" and "dry-rubbed spiced wings" but no mention of "Bflo-style chicken wings" and the menu leans more towards raw than deep fried apps.

 

I see they have fancy cocktails but do they have pitchers?

 

I'm gonna be in NYC next month so these are important details. Thanks.
