My thoughts also...

 

The only way this can be rectified is to streak across the field during game time stark naked with Go Bills painted on your buttocks.

 

We're counting on you OP...

I don’t know if the cameras have the zoom quality needed to give you the show you’re looking for while I do it

Drink water, wear shorts and a hat, park in the stadium.

 

Find a nice Cuban restaurant. Order the Vaca Frita.

….or point. That works pretty good with menus, but it can get you in trouble with people. That’s your public safety announcement for the day.

Bring sunscreen and a rain pancho, drink plenty of water and beer.

It’ll seem like a Home game. Not just because the Dolphins suck but the Bills fans who live there and thousands who make this a yearly pilgrimage.

 

Yep.  This one is my 5th in a row and they’re always a ton of fun.  This year in particular, I believe it will truly be a takeover.

 

Ate at one of the Havana 1957 locations on Ocean last night.  A bit commercial but great food, mojitos, and live entertainment.

 

Taking a bike tour today with food and drink stops along the way.  Dinner tonight at Zaytinya.

 

South Beach is fun.

My daughter lives there. She and my granddaughter are going to the game. 1st ever Bills game for Grandi!

We are going to see Inter Miami and Messi play tonight.  Tickets were fairly cheap.  
 

We are getting into town around 2p.  Suggestions of things to do?  I’m with my parents and 12 year old daughter.

I’m not a huge Miami expert…we’re always in the South Beach area and it’s great just walking up and down Ocean Drive.  You see a lot of “stuff.”

This will be the first time taking it but it seems straightforward. Google GEICO HRS shuttle. Uber to and from the lot to catch the shuttle sounds way better than where Uber drops off and picks up if you take it all the way to the stadium. I already booked my Ubers and they were both very reasonable. 
 

I should add that tailgating is not important to us because we are in a suite so we get there at 11 and start the party inside. 

 

Thanks for the heads up. I just booked my parking spot in lot 95.

It’s stupid hot in Miami today. 
 

Feels like a summer day. Prepare yourselves Bills fans.

I’m at the Marriott Harbor Beach.   Send me a note if you want a drink, or three.   Elbo room is iconic.   Crowded, jostled, loud … but can’t miss if you’re here.   I’m on the 15 yard line, Bills side, 28 rows up.   You’ll be over my shoulder to my left.

 

It is the sunny side.   However, November’s not September, and it won’t feel like Hell’s waiting room.   Wear short sleeves and a hat with a visor.

 

In the Josh Allen era, I’d say the smallest proportion of fans chearing for Buffalo is 25%.  I’m a math guy and honest … I believe it’s been over 50% and was about that during the playoff “play in” game of January, 2024.

 

Team lands in Fort Lauderdale approximately 3:40.    There will be people there.

 

Parking: Pre-pay for your parking pass, do not show up without one. IMPORTANT

Tailgate Location: Bills Backers tailgate is on the west side of the stadium. Don’t park on the wrong side unless you want a long walk.

Payment: Bring a credit card, the stadium is cashless.

Bag Policy: Remember the NFL’s clear bag rule.

Hydration: You can bring one unopened bottle of water into the stadium.

Food: Outside food is not allowed (except for medical needs).

Sun Warning: The Bills sideline is in direct sun for most of the game, plan accordingly with hat, sunscreen, and hydration.

Did you see options for Lot 70?  That one is North of the stadium and would be easier for us going home.  I see Lot 95 available

Through pure random circumstances, I’ll be in Florida for a long weekend to visit family, and somehow didn’t realize the Bills were playing in Miami.  I’ve wanted to do an away game in Miami for a while now, and it seems as though the fates have smiled upon me. 
 

I know there’s people who go down every year.  I might head down from Orlando on Saturday night and drive back after the game.  
 

If anyone has any suggestions on tickets hotel, parking, Bills bar, or anything else, I’d appreciate it. 

Have a sh-t load of fun!

Yeah, I was at the heat game a couple years ago, and from the club seats in the shade, it was like watching a blue and red turkey roasting in the oven. The sunburns after the game were intense. I was drinking vodka/cranberry in the corner club all day, or I would have been roasted too. 

 

So you sat there drinking in the air conditioning while watching others suffer? Do I have that right?

Get a Cubano at Versailles in South Beach...best one you'll ever eat!  The pastry shop nearby is amazing as well.

 

You... eat cigars? 😊

I've had so many friends shame me for not knowing the Bills were playing in Miami this weekend before planning my trip.  I admit, it is strange for me to not know the schedule off the top of my head.  I knew they played this weekend, and just planned to watch it from the family house.  I'm just a little off this season.

 

The Messi game was also a pleasant surprise.  

 

We stop our PDA years ago and now require people to pay on our OF.

 

I knew there had to be a logical explanation...

The Stadium has a big hole in the roof, bring a rain coat.

I am guessing it is sold out.
