Probably have been to a hundred plus Bills games. But never a playoff game. I tried to talk some friends into going but could not so I rented a room in Hamburg and drove out from Rochester. Flying solo (and because the cold) I did the bar thing so I could stay warm and watch the first game. Parked at Wings on California road and went inside to the bar. I ordered a Blue Lite, shot of Jameson and some hot wings before my ass hit the stool. By the way, I have to say the wings were awesome. Just the right crisp. Around 7 I tossed on my additional layers and walked to the stadium (such a loooog walk with no bridge but I still am glad I went to that bar)
Once in the stadium you could feel the buzz right away. And then, as others have said the stadium went dark. What ensued was a 3 plus hour party where every fan in that stadium shared the joy and relief of 20 years. I'm not a guy who really dances or sings. Last night we ALL danced and sang all game long.
Just a night i'll never forget. Was it cold, yeah a bit. Would I have changed a single thing about last night? Never.
GO BILLS!!
