Ever Meet a Bill's player?

[BUFFALONRTH76]

When I was a teen ( I live in Ont, Canada) My Ma sent me to the Jim Kelly celebrity Football Camp in Olean.. It was the summer between their second and third Superbowl appearance... I was a young QB here in Canada lol, and when I went to my first practice ended up being the odd man out without a partner to throw to. Jim volunteered his services, and for a complete afternoon my Childhood/Teenage dream was fulfilled... I got to play catch with Jim Kelly for an afternoon... I met many Bills, and other NFL Players as well that week, but that memory of the first day of camp will stand out in my mind for the rest of my life. Jim always recognized me the rest of the week, and that made the camp a little more personal to me... I'll forever be a Bills fan... Through thick and thin... And even thinner, if need be!!!

Hey I was at the camp too! Summer 1992. It was cool getting tips from NFL players and having them watch you play tag football. It was an awesome time. I also met Peerless Price on a flight from Cleveland to Buffalo the year he was a rookie. I was coming home for leave and he was reporting to training camp. He was asking me about Fredonia and things. He seemed like a pretty cool guy

[BUFFALONRTH76]

That was a great camp! I had a blast!! Some memories i'll cherish forever!

I've met BRUCE and Thurman Thomas at the Big Tree after a few games...Let's see...who else?
Tasker, Metzelaars, Al Bemiller(fun guy to party with), Billy Shaw, and then the usuals with getting autographs

[BAM]

No but I have met coach Mularkey! He was with the Steelers at the time. Had some drinks w/ him and Bill Cowher.

when the Bills used to have training camp here in Fredonia I met many of them. They were always in the local bars

I was the assitant coach on Quinn Early's sons hockey team. It was the year that he signed with the Bills. It was kinda funny, cause at first I didn't recognize him. He came to practice all dressed in Bills stuff. I went up to him and told him I was a Bills fan. He was like, "yeah i play for them." When he said that it didn't hit me and I started blabbing something about how I thought they were gonna do that year. He repeated what he said again then it finally hit me and I didn't know what to say. He was a really cool guy though, he was also a pretty good hockey player.

I've met a few Bills. As a matter of fact, my next door neighbor's name was Bill. I also had an uncle named Bill.

I have also met tasker, billy brooks, frank reich, and peete metzalars they were all at a bar down here in Fl I was only like 8 but I met them!

I met Cirroc Lofton, a relative of James Lofton (and Kenny Lofton of the Yankees). He played Jake Sisko in the series 'Star Trek Deep Space Nine.'

Does that count?

I met Chuch Knox, Joe Ferguson, and most of the rest of the 1982 team, outside the stadium when they were returning from running some drills over at the ECC fields.
I met Reed, Mueller, McKeller, Wright, and Kidd very briefly at the Rhine Haus in Rome after a charity bball game.
I met Daryll Talley when I was going to Nazareth and he was the manager of the McDonalds in Pittsford (1993)

i know he is not a bill, but i recently met and coached little league with ricky proehl of the panthers. in my life i have met ...jim kelly, bruce, thurman, kelso (really great), the entire 91 and 92 bills teams. i have also met other sports greats like cal ripken (lived in roch as a kid and he played with the wings), president bush (Sr) and others. i say this not to be a scmuck but to say that ricky proehl was the classiest and most down to earth professional athlete that i have ever met. he signed autos after every game and came to every practice and played.

for whatever it is worth, (and i recently have posted against db) he said that he believed that drew bledsoe was a really really good qb who had some good years left

[PUCKER]

I have met Nate Odomes and Thurman Thomas at an autograph signing years ago in Lancaster. Nate was really cool!

[Dozerdog]

My name is Bill- I've been told I'm a "Playa"

[GreenMachine]

I waited on Jim Kelly before. He sure likes his Crown Royal!!!!
