For the life of me I could never figure out why people are so absorbed in being the first ones on the road. You just spent about 3 hours in the stadium... what's another 45 minutes in the parking lot gonna matter? Light the grill and have a pop or two... it gives you a chance to chill out a little and watch all the lunatics road raging in the lots just to get to the road a half of a minute before the other guy.

 

RELAX people! You're supposed to be having a good time at the game... right? When you leave your place on the way to the game just plan on being there another 45 minutes or so for a brief "after the game cookout". While you're busy munching & guzzling you couldn't care less how fast the cars are moving!

Just speaking for myself, I have a 2.5hr+ drive back to Pittsburgh...otherwise yeah, an extra 45 and a 15 min drive home would be perfect

I am on the young side of middle aged. A friend of ours turned us on to the Wings lot years ago and we haven't looked back.

 

Great tailgating atmosphere,but on the family friendly side. Real bathrooms. A bar inside with TV's if that's your vibe. Easy exit. But a little bit of a hike.

 

Once in a while we'll park at Hammers, get closer, or head over early and hit a more rowdy lot.

 

 

Where is the Wings lot located at? Coming to Buffalo for when we play the Saints.

3964 California Avenue, orchard park

 

I've never parked there, but as mentioned by @Mango its a hike for some.  Maybe 1 mile walk, if you walk the road and don't cut through any paths that used to be there (not sure if those still exist).

 

In general, not blaming those that park where they do, but the foot traffic to all these "pop up lots"/yard parking, has what's really slowed down car traffic post game from the Lot 1s/7s (since the new stadium build).
