Another Fan Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 Well 1st for anyone that was my condolences. I mean at least I was in my bedroom watching the end of that game unfold versus out in the rain among Eagles fans. I'm curious if Eagles fans really come as bad as advertised at the Linc to opposing fans. I mean you figure Buffalo is about as neutral an opponent for the Birds as they come.

bigK14094 Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 Years ago I went to the Vet to see the Bills and Eagles in a preseason. We were at summer camp at Fort Dix and went into Philly to see the Bills. The fans then were really a rough group, the ticket line was a scrum, no line at all. But my Army buddies and I were well equipped to get tickets in that setting as we could move the crowd. So, Philly was like Pittsburg back in the day in my experience.

BuffAlone Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 I was there. Sitting amongst season ticket holders. Yes,everything you've heard about Philly fans is true. Absolutely disgusting and vile. I was screamed obscenities all game.Guys behind me had raincoats on and kept holding them out to funnel rain on my head. Was told Josh Allen was a N@zi,etc. etc. Just foul behavior. My second game there this year. Will never go back 2 2 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sad people feel the need to act like that to anyone who, in the bigger picture, shares a common interest.

I finally had enough and had to go inside just before the tying fg. God,it didn't get any better,but at least it was dry 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyst Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 there is video of a little kid walking up to a bills fan to give him a high five. the guy smiles and offers his hand. the little kid flips him off before anything else and laughs at him, clearly set up by his parents. if the guy would have cussed the kid or merely ignored him he would have been pummeled. it's sad you can't bully people anymore. too many people need it. all i can say is if any little kid walked up to me to do anything like that i'd give him the most colorful list of expletives ya'll know i am capable of giving until he cried. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loyal2dagame Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 I was at the game and it seemed like 1 of only 3 bills fans in the entire section. I had on a home Allen jersey and a Bills hat. My sidekick had on an Allen color rush jersey and a Bills winter hat. No problems at all. A few boos walking into the stadium and in the stands and that was it. Some light heckling back and forth. Honestly, it felt no different from buffalo as far as fan interaction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other teams fans routinely talk about how rough it is to watch a game at Rich. We just don't realize it because it's our fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, I wouldn't have cussed. Would have just said, "Good one, buddy. Almost as good as the trick your parents play on you about Santa Clause being real every year, ya dumbass". Ok, maybe a little curse at the end. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pennstate10 Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 I was at the game. Most of the people around us were fine. Guy in front of me went to high five me after a Ohilly score and I just pointed to my hat and he said, oh sorry. A guy behind me tapped me in the shoulder and asked me to take a picture of him and his buddies and handed me his phone. So really pretty normal. then there was a guy in Eagles gear a couple seats over who was standing the whole time. The Eagles fans behind him started threatening him and he finally sat down. There were a few guys throwing insults about the Bulls and Buffalo in general, but nothing too bad. I was really surprised to hear all the boos directed at the Eagles. Who have the best record in the league. Just an irritable bunch I guess. We were partially under an overhang and had rain gear and ponchos, so not too bad. But then I got soaked walking and waiting 45 min for the subway. That was actually the worst part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a ticket but didn’t go because of the environment. The guys that I work with were all there though and the stories are wild. They were spit on, cursed at, etc… One guy said to my buddy, “I’m going to shoot you in the face and the f%<$ your mom.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Jackson Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 Apparently homophobic slurs run rampant throughout that place as well. These five guys said that they heard that word more times in 3 hours than they’ve heard in 20 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moulds 808080 Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 We should buy tickets all together if we play them again talking about TBD. We will show them a good time. Sucks that they have fans like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
