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.

I ran home from my friends church under the pouring rain to catch the Bills-Jags game two years ago.

Re: Whats the craziest thing you ever did to watch a bills game?

Oh man where to start with this one- for about two years I went to sports bars every weekend. One time I had to pay a $10 cover and listen to some crappy alt-rock band play to watch a Thursday night game.

I snuck out of a work Christmas party to watch the game in the back with the wait staff.

I bought DirecTV and Sunday Ticket so I can watch the games at home.

I hooked up a second TV in the basement and had to run cable lines all through the house so we can watch the Bills games and other games at the same time.

I've flown/driven back from Thanksgiving on Saturday instead of Sunday so I didn't miss the game.

For all of high school/college, I was working at Wegmans, and I turned down extra pay on Sundays so I didn't miss the Bills games.

A couple years ago I blew off my girlfriend's father's wedding to go to the Patriots-Bills opener.

She wasn' very amused, neither was the fam. We're cool now though.

What kind of a man gets married on opening weekend of football season? I bet I know who wears the pants in that relationship- dude needs to grow a pair.

Re: Whats the craziest thing you ever did to watch a bills game?

I got married Dec 30, 1995.

We made the plans to coincide with the anniversary of our first date, plus many other reasons. The year before the Bills missed the playoffs and looked to be in a rebuilding phase, and with 12/30 being the first saturday after the season ended, I figured

1) What were the odds of the Bills playing in the playoffs after a 6-10 season the year before?

2) If they did go back, what were the odds that they would be the noon saturday game on wild card weekend?

Well, all the cards fell into place to screw me. So I made sure all of my Buffalo guests would see the game anyway- as I brought TVs to the wedding & reception. We got married at exactly noon - 30 minutes before kickoff.

It was Don Shula's last game, and the Bills wound up clobbering Miami and setting an NFL rushing record for a playoff game- over 330 yards by the team.

Many times I've sat in the car listening to aweful AM reception - maybe getting 3- 4 words out of every sentance. Now I sit in the car and listen to Sirius NFL radio

I used to do that also... in my parents Dodge Caravan before we got the Internet. I was 10 years old at the time.

1080 AM was the channel I used to try to get. SOmetimes I had to hold my hand on the antenna to get anything at all...

Yah no kidding. It was actually on the Saturday that weekend, but I didn't feel like driving late at night or waking up early.

One time, I couldn't find the remote and had to get up and change the channel to the Bills game BY HAND!

I was also out of beer that day

Re: Whats the craziest thing you ever did to watch a bills game?

I don't know if it applies into crazy category, but I have been watching the games at a local sports bar "El Torito", in the middle of a bunch of many many fans, none of those to the bills, mainly from the USA. When they looked at me, wearing jerseys, tshirts and/or bills hats, they start to kidding me. That's why they call me the last (and only) buffalo fan.

Re: Whats the craziest thing you ever did to watch a bills game?

Not really a crazy thing, more like an a$$ thing to do, has to be when I skipped A family Christmas party to go to my friends place to watch the game (said I had a Migrane headache)......
