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!

I can tell u who hasn't spent the most on the Bills Ralph Wilson Jr.
thats a good one...he isn't cheap
but it is a good one because obviously he has made more then he has put in...so he has spent negative
but as i posted a real number...i spent money on KC OAK and NE being a bills fan but i got more out of those games then i spent.
i went to NYC to make a trip and cincy because we were hot
the jets because i still believed and the phins to be with friends
but i like being at the game with bills fans, i like the cheers the boos and the booze.
if the bills ever moved i would lose all of that, and the past 10 years i haven't had a lot of time i could watch/enjoy bills games due to work but finally instead of watching stat trackers or crappy static feeds i can go enjoy the game or watch it at home....so i guess the money didn't matter. even winning or losing didn't matter in theory i always had fun.
i am just a bills fan who wants to root for my team win or lose you can say i am a homer, but i went to KC expecting AN L i thought they wouldn't beat NE at home but i dropped 100+ on 50 yd line tickets......i went to cheer my team on i didn't go to ***** about ralph or to complain about Chan...that's my issue with message board.
i like to debate not listen to the same *****ing and moaning every week about the same **** or different **** but the same reasons
Re: Who here has spent the most money on the Bills?
I'm up there. My first game was 1965 but I started giving my family my paper route $$ so I could buy tickets the year Rich stadium opened in 1973. Tickets were $7 for a sideline seat 18 rows up at the 20 yard line.
I kept seasons up until a couple years ago when I had enough and declined my Club seats. Been to a couple dozen road games also, mostly in Miami. After my youth, I was never handed a free ticket and think of the thousands I gave Ralph.
He must laugh at me nightly.
Anonymity is an abused privilege, abused most by people who mistake vitriol for wisdom and cynicism for wit
Re: Who here has spent the most money on the Bills?
Over a lifetime, I have spent a bunch. I had 4 season tix for 15 years, the last 13 in the Jim Kelly Club. I traveled from New Jersey, then North Carolina, during that period. I had the Sunday Ticket for many, many years, and for the last 2 I've gone to Duffy's Sports Bar to watch nearly every game, except when I've gone to Miami to watch the Bills live.
I had an entire room devoted to Bills' memorabilia. I have at least 4 authentic and 12 replica jerseys, a couple of watches, about 80 hats, several jackets, and many, many T-shirts, socks, etc. My wife and kids have plenty of stuff, too.
Over the course of 52 seasons, if I include travel costs, tickets, food and drink, merchandise, DirecTV, etc., I would put the tab at somewhere well north of $150,000. Probably closer to $200,000.
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?

Too bad you can't get your money back for buying such a crap product.
