August 18, 1986
Quarterback Jim Kelly signed a 5-year, $8 million contract with the Buffalo Bills and then received a hero's welcome to the city later that day.

Just think about this, in just 1998 the Bills were worth $252 million, now they are worth $821 million.

In 20 years it will be. August 18, 2008. Bills resign Peters now a HOFer to a 6 year deal. Peters became a top 5 OL in NFL history and was the main reason we won 4 back to back superbowls.




Ok, now I woke up.
