All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
There is work to be done and things to be learned. We are going to try to get the old look back - or something close to it. We also know there are bugs. A thread will be started to report bugs and then we can pass those onto the host.
Thank you for all the patience and support with this - hopefully this will greatly reduce the crashes and other site issues we have had lately.
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

I was sitting in a bar in Denver with my Denver Bills Backers. At kick off we had over 100 Bills Fans watching. By halftime we were down to 6 of us. I remember standing up and saying. "That's it, I'm out of here"! My friends told me I was going nowhere. I had to stay and watch the pain with them.
Glad I did.
One of my greatest memories of all time.
I lived in Rochester then. I had to work so my boss could go to the game. Otherwise I would have been there. Back in '93 Syracuse was not in the blackout zone and I could get Ch.3 off my rooftop aerial, so I taped the game on my VCR.
I was a DJ at an ice rink and had to play music for skaters. We were down 35-3 by the time I started the session. As we got closer I started posting the score on the rink scoreboard for the skaters. Once we got within one TD I put Van Miller's radio call on the rink sound system.
The game ended just as the session ended. The rink had a bar so I ran home, got the VHS tape, and started playing the 2nd half in the bar, so we all got to see the game within an hour of the end. Some folks in the bar had no idea how the game actually ended till they saw it on tape.

I was watching from our then home in Sparta, New Jersey, and I was surprisingly calm considering the first half, and the Oilers' quick score in the 2nd. For once, I wasn't ranting and raving and giving up. Don't ask me why.
It was about 2 years later when we became empty nesters and got our season tickets. Thus began a 15 year travel ordeal from New Jersey and later North Carolina to almost every home game. And soon after began our playoff drought.
Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?
At home, listening on the radio. I miss Van Miller.
Me too and I turned off the radio at half time pissed off to all hell. I did eventually turn it back on to miss the Oilers defensive TD but did catch come back though.
I was with my family watching at a sports bar/restaurant. AGAINST MY OBJECTIONS, we left at halftime. I came back on my own after the comeback began, and stood in a packed, raucous entryway during the whole fourth Q and OT.

I was at the stadium with my two boys ages 7 and 12, My seven year old was wanting to leave at half time. I told him no we had come to see the game and we were going to stay until it ended, So glad we did, Both boys are featured in the highlight video of the game.
In Las Vegas left at halftime with three college girls singing luv u blue... Get to airport and missed flight back to Buffalo cause I had to watch rest of game went back to Flamingo and looked for college girls couldnt find them....,
I was at a beach front condominium. A friend went out for vacation and asked us (the the wife and I) to take care her place. Booze, food, pool, jaccuzzy and a beautiful beach front view for free! I think this game was the game that made my wife to pay more atention to my beloved Bills, as she was having fun too. This game is the reason of why I stay watching the games until the very end.
The Mexican & too!!
- Adriano & Emiliano, the next Villa & Zapata. Viva Mexico, cabrones!!! -

at the game with 8 or 9 other friends. It was pretty depressing at half time but the most amazing experience ever. I remember looking around at the section after the game and most people were crying. The only thing to compare to it was the afc championship game vs Oakland (51-3), but obviously for different reasons. That game was one 3 hour celebration in perfect weather (for Buffalo in january).
