Today I got to meet a dude from Meghalaya region of Bangladesh who visits US for the first time as a liason for our new outsourced project.
As he saw my Bills gear, he tried to get close with the culture here by praising the power house champion Buffalo Bills were when he grew up. It turned out he got one of those 1991 Bills super champion gear that Walmart dumped to his village back then. I don't have the heart to ask him to send me pictures while he said he actually had seen all 4 years worth of Bills superbowl champion hats/shirts. Of course he knows nothing about American football, never watched one in his life. He just knew Buffalo Bills were perennial champions from his early age.
I need to entertain him a bit while he's here and the thought of taking him to a Bills game crossed my mind. Unfortunately I don't think my company will let me take him to NYC or Toronto and he's here for 3 weeks or so. The company does have a box in Heinz field, and I'm debating whether to take him to the Jaguars game because that time coincides with the Bills game. The following week, the Steelers are away and Week 7, the Steelers host the Pats; people have already blocked out that game in the company.
