stuckincincy Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 I can't watch that guy's show. Except when the camera's on him, it spends maybe 3 seconds on any food then switches the view. It's like a strobe light show to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloJBill Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 why would you shoot a tailgating segment at a preseason game??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Philster Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 why would you shoot a tailgating segment at a preseason game??? Yeah...it's definitely gonna be lacking something...plus it'll miss the surrounding experience of Lot 1...but the way Kenny talked, the fact that it's just preseason is the only reason he consented to it...moving the Pinto, that is. To do the whole thing right, they'd have to do it in the regular season in Lot 1...but then, Kenny's party would beat any other party without even trying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Jack Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 Info link at BillsZone.com forum. Here's your chance to represent our town on national TV. PTR I cut-n-pasted for those not registered at BZ. Lori, if this isn't allowed, go ahead and delete my post.... Attention Tailgaters!!! We want YOU to be part of a television show! When: August 15th Where: Lot C, Ralph Wilson Stadium, Buffalo, NY Why: A Food Network Tailgate Competition Show. Who: Our Host is Guy Fieri Here’s the scoop. The Buffalo Bills face the Chicago Bears on Saturday, August 15th. That’s INSIDE the stadium. OUTSIDE the stadium, a very different battle will be taking place. A battle between two top tailgating teams…one from Buffalo, one from Chicago. Guy Fieri will be refereeing the showdown and it will be intense. And that’s where you come in…we need tailgaters to fill the parking lot. We want you, your rigs, your grills, your games, your costumes and all the other gear you bring to the lot to give our show a real tailgating atmosphere. We’re looking for the true tailgating fan, the fan who loves to party in the parking lot. Bills fan, Bears fans, fans from other teams…you’re all welcome! We need you for our background shots and for when we go into the lot to experience everything that makes tailgating great! We have room for about 60 set ups (R.Vs, busses, trucks, cars, tents, whatever you use to mark your tailgating area) in full tailgating mode; cooking, playing and gearing up for the game. Due to the “magic” of television, we need you to be able to set up on Friday, the 14th, between 4 and 8 pm and be able to rejoin us Saturday morning by 8am, ready to tailgate. This is a night game and your vehicle will not be able to leave the lot until after shooting is complete, around 8pm. We will have security in the lot overnight on Friday. One BIG note: Food Network is a family network. We are going to be talking a lot about community and family fun at tailgating. The television production will be sharing the parking lot with the Bills Kids Day Festivities, so any drinking that may take place should be done in moderation. We want this to be a show that ALL ages can watch and enjoy. The program will be a direct reflection on the city of Buffalo, as well as the Food Network, so please keep that in mind as you enjoy the day. We have limited space and passes are necessary, so please contact Maggie Macpherson at maggiemacpherson (at) mac.com. Please include an idea of what type of vehicle you’ll be bringing, how many people will be in your group and roughly how much space you’ll need. Thank you and we look forward to meeting you!

Lori Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 Far as I know, that's actually a release from http://www.ontheblacktop.com/ meant for public distribution, so I'm all right with it.

Lori Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 Some additional info: both Commissioner of Tailgating Joe Cahn and "Jay the Tailgate Guy," with whom we had the pleasure of grilling and chilling last Sunday, plan to be in attendance. Stop by and say hi! Oh, and even if you can't park your car on Friday and be there for the duration, they're looking for people to be part of the crowd Saturday morning.

Questfor31 Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 I am planning to be out there to support Kenny. I should be finishing my Quest for 31 (a journey to see a game in every stadium in the NFL) this year with plans to visit my "Final Five" - DEN, NO, NY, BAL, and WAS, in place for this year.

Just Jack Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 Keep your shirt on, hide the beer, and don't look at the camera were the most popular sayings at the taping. Managed to get a couple pictures, even though they really did not want pictures taken. Will get them posted soon. Guy took 15-20 takes on one segment of just walking through the lot and repeating some lines. His segment with Ken took about 15-20 minutes when I was there, not sure if they did any filming earlier in the day, since it was an all day event. There was one "entry" point the Bills (or maybe Food Network) had staffed with a security guard making everyone sign a release in case they appeared on camera. Well, if you simply walked 20 more feet down the cement barriers, you could get right into the filming area without signing the release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Jack Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 Searching for when the show might be on (Spet 17th), found this article with Guy on Buffalo Rising. The rest of the article is good also. From the article, it sounds like he is/was still in Buffalo this morning. Guy says we'll be able to witness the whole "Tailgating Warriors" segment on September 17th.

Just Jack Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 Looked in TV Guide for it this week, couldn't find it, so I checked Food Network, it is October 17th.... http://www.foodnetwork.com/food/shows/epis...8_65706,00.html The battle on the gridiron may be rough when the Chicago Bears take on the Buffalo Bills, but it's nothing compared to the action going on outside the stadium. Guy Fieri has thrown down the gauntlet, and tailgate teams from around the country are dukin' it out to see who has the most killer grub in the game! Bringing their rigs, grills, costumes, attitudes and amazing eats, these teams mean business and are fighting for tailgating supremacy as Food Network's Tailgate Warriors.

Lori Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 12-15 minutes of taping for about 1 minute of airtime. That's the bidness. As for the judging -- I watched them question some of the Chicago team's entries and praise Buffalo's to high heaven, so I put the results on the same level as No Goal. That "Wing in a Pigskin" looks AWESOME. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EasternOHBillsFan Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 If you saw the final scoring, Chicago got 2.5 more points for "degree of difficulty", something I protest. Rotisserie chicken and sausage/ground beef burgers are NOT more difficult to cook than stuffed pork loin tied and grilled along with Buffalo wings on the grill. That's where I cried foul...

True Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 Well, grilling burgers is not something you would ever want to do first, I mean WOW! That takes YEARS of experience. I know a 6 year old who can do it... FALSE START, Chicago. B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Jack Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 The pork stuffed Buffalo Chicken was the most difficult dish and likely the tastiest. Yet again Buffalo gets screwed! But remember the judges said they might dock Buffalo a couple points for butterflying the pork during a time when it wasn't allowed. Maybe they did and it was just enough to lose.

Ramius Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 The officiating/judging was a joke. As Lori said, the judges had many questions about chicago's food and only praise for Buffalo's. We got screwed because the judges got a woodie over the fact that the chicago loser made his own rotisserie with a bike chain and sprocket.
