Advice for game at Carolina ???

[pkwwjd]

I live in Northern NY, but our daughter lives in SC. We are planning on going to visit her and attend the Carolina game. Are there any Carolina Bills Backers groups that do a group of tickets? That would save us watching prices, etc. Plus we'd be sitting with other Bills fans. Any advice is great ... thanks!

The Carolina Bills Backers Group is pretty large. I went to the last game there and it was a good time. Hyperbole aside, 60% of the stadium may be be Bills fans.  That’s a realistic estimate. We may have 40,000 Bills fans there. There have been Nashville games that look like that but this game will rival that. I’d say AT LEAST 25,000. The point being, it won’t be hard to be around Bills fans.

 

Sometimes the Backer Groups have blocks of tickets. You can also go through the Fans of Buffalo group. I try to get to a couple of road games a year and I wait until the morning of the game (usually) to buy my tickets. That seems to be when the pricing is best. The few weeks before the game and now are usually the worst IMO.

Half of the population of Charlotte is from WNY, I expect that will be a home game for us. Cheap taxes and better weather!

Tavern on the Tracks which is 7 or so blocks from BOA stadium has my endorsement.  I spent the day there with my wife watching the game in which Bacarri Rambo intercepted Aaron Rodgers twice to beat the Packers, December 14, 2014.  Had a great time and they were a very active group.  I'd bet they would plan big things for when the Bills actually come to town.  You might want to contact their Bills Backer group.

Tavern is where to go the night before

 

Tailgating sucks in Charlotte.

Oh, Geez. You’ve just created a dilemma for me. My wife has already booked the hotel rooms and rental car for the opener, and she just keeps inviting family members! When she learned what ticket prices look like now she slowed down.  Thank God for that! We will also be attending the “home game” (for us) in Atlanta. 

 

I thought that was my Bills schedule for the year, but my wife is from Rock Hills, SC, basically a suburb just south of Charlotte. She has a ton of family in the area.  I’ve never seen an NFL game in Charlotte. If it’s anything close to the Nashville experience, I want to see it with my wife. I’ve been to I think 4 games in Nashville (nearby and my son lived there) but my wife never got to see that amazing scene.  Tempting.

We’d like a full report on future Bills upon your return

We just booked a place for the Carolina game, now just waiting for ticket prices to ease before we grab seats. Will keep checking here to see if group sales pop up

This.  There are a couple of lots but it’s nothing to write home about.  Better off pre-gaming at a bar.

I've seen a hot dog cart on a street corner in downtown Charlotte selling Sahlen's Hot Dogs!!
