what were you doing 18 years ago when the bills staged their incredible comeback against the houston oilers?

I was in the hospital recovering from surgery. couldn't even see the damn game cuz it wasn't sold out.

what an awesome game!

[wmoz11]

I was 7 years old and was watching for the first half. My mom and sister were going to a local indoor pool so I tagged along figuring a loss was inevitable. By the time I got home, we had won.

[YardRat]

Listening to the game on the radio in my living room...Yes, I was not one of the 750,000 people who were there.

Sitting in the stadium in amazement.

In a pool at the King Kamehameha's Kona Beach Hotel on my honeymoon.

I watched it from one of these chairs in the swim up bar at the pool at about 10am.

[TedMock]

In a bar on Abbott Road in Lackawanna with shades drawn because the bar could play blacked out games for "private parties" only. That bar isn't around any longer and I showed up just after halftime! Completely missed the bad part of the game.

[Mr. Pink]

Watching the game on TV in my house as a teenager....in the suburbs of Cleveland, OH.

[Scumbag College]

Had tickets to the game and was going with my aunt, uncle, and cousin but their car went off the road. We just got home in time to watch the game.

My uncle wrote a nice letter to Frank Reich and sent our unused tickets. He wrote back a nice letter and signed each of them. I wish I could find them.

[ServoBillieves]

I was 5 :/

[tampabay25690]

I was a sophomore in high school at Cleve Hill Fire department basement watching the game....

[THATHURMANATOR]

I was a young man attending my first ever Bills game. What a great day that was!!!!!!

[Buffalo Thriller]

I didnt exist

[OpIv37]

I was 13 and I was sitting on the couch listening to the game on the radio, since it was blacked out in Rochester and I was a little young to go bar-hopping.

At halftime, my mom convinced me to help her go grocery shopping. When the Bills started coming back, they actually started announcing the score over the loudspeaker at the Holt Rd Wegmans. We finished shopping and got home in time to catch the end of the game. I seem to remember that they may have lifted the blackout and shown the end on TV, but it might be just blurred memories because I've watched the highlights so many times. Anyway, whether it was on TV or on the radio, I just know I was sitting on the couch in the family room for the grand finale.

[ParanoidAndroid]

I was home for the holidays on leave from Ft. Ord California. My sister, brother-in-law and I were at Tavern on the Mall in Forestville. They had a satellite feed. All I remember is waving my hand at the tv after the 3rd quarter interception thinking it was hopeless.
That was the most satisfying game I have ever watched.

[Mr. Miyagi]

At a bar called Elmwood Inn (I thnk) in Rochester watching the game with a hundred other Bills fans. Man that place was fricking crowded. I was in college then.

[mikemac2001]

Hornell NY age 7 to was there to avoid the blackout watched the first half at my Gma's and then we turned it off including the VCR to go to my uncles at half.....then magic happened.....still remember jumping up and down what a game.

[TacklingDummy]

Having sex.

[k-oneputt]

Having sex.

We know that's a lie.

[Mr. Miyagi]

We know that's a lie. Not if he meant with his daddy.

:jk:

[NOT THE DUDE...]

i remeber being pumped up about the game. i was 9 and we obviously got blown out in the 1st half.... we decided to go play football outside, this was in a new orleans suburb. my dad came running out to get us saying we were coming back... couldnt believe it!

to this day i remember watching thinking man this team just never quits... its a tragedy they could never win the big one...

[NOT THE DUDE...]

to this day, after that season, letting polian go was one of the biggest mistakes in sports history... just plain dumb!

[Ingtar33]

I came home for the holidays from college, for my mom's funeral. she died about a week before that game...

man... i was so angry and distraught i didn't even try to go to the game... or even really listen to it (it was a blackout)... i remember turning off the radio in disgust at halftime with the Oilers sporting a 4 TD lead and Moon basically perfect.

I only turned it back on in the 4th quarter to find out what the final score was, and i couldn't figure out why van miller was so excited until i heard him yammering about the Oiler's driving for a tying field goal to send the game into overtime.

It wasn't until he said the bills were winning 38-35 that i believed i heard him right.

I was glued to the radio through to the end of the game from that point.

[kscdogbillsfan1221]

yea, i was 11. just had my appendix taken out and was sitting in strong hospital listening to the game. i did have tickets to the game but my brother had to sell them due to my surgery.

[ZEUS]

I was 22 and living in Mass. so I got to see the game. After reading the threads on this board, I don't think most of the forum members were born yet in '93.

[Don't Panic]

Section E9, Row 40, Seats 109 and 110. 43 yard line on the visitors side. Stayed all the way through and enjoyed one of the best moments of my life with my dad in celebration. We were like 2nd graders that got let out of school for summer.

[stuckincincy]

At halftime, I turned the tv off in disgust... :*****slap:

[jamze132]

Sitting at home watching the game with my brother and a bunch of friends all *****ing at me so we could go outside and play football. I told them I couldn't play until the game was over. They said the game was over in the 2nd. I begged to differ.
