Metal Man

I heard the shuttles after the convert was a 💩 show. Sorry for the people who had to deal with that. I was lucky enough to be able to have the wife drop me off early and then come pick me up about an hour after the show ended so I didn't have to deal with any of the post show traffic nightmares. Agree about ST. Their sound was terrible. Not a massive fan but I know a handful of their songs. I might have been kind of tuned out by then but I didn't even realize they played Subliminal until I saw the setlist the next day. Not sure why the sound was so jacked up for them but then ok for Pantera and very good for Metallica.

I thought it ended up going a lot more smoothly than I predicted, at least in the area around where I was sitting, 117. Definitely got crowded at times but concessions and bathrooms seemed to be pretty manageable all night. How was anyone else's experience?

I'll be there. For anyone not familiar with the Dome it is woefully unequipped for a crowd of this size, so be prepared for concourses even worse than the Ralph during halftime as far as crowd density.

Played a ton of Euchre in high school and college when I lived in the Buffalo area. Then when I moved to the Syracuse area no one had ever heard of it. It is all Pitch around here. Used to play on yahoo a lot when they still had live games and it seemed like most of the people I would meet on there were from WNY, Ohio, or Canada so if definitely seems somewhat regional.

There is a place like this right downtown in the canal side area, near the arena, attached to a kid's museum called Explore & More. They have Bills stuff along with other Buffalo sports teams and things just for Buffalo in general. It has a small boutique like feel and my wife, who also enjoys those types of stores, loves this place and always insists on a browse there when we are in the area.

I have been thinking they would go down that road as well. A lot of interesting story angles to play around with the idea of two different personas and a pregnancy. That is right about the same time my friend's wife gave up on it too. She was adamant that there was no way they would be able to wrap all of the mysteries up and explain it well. We laughed it off at the time but in retrospect she was way ahead of the curve.

I guess this is ok as a time saver but I actually kind of like the drama of waiting to see where that chain lines up when the chain gang comes out. Guess I am old school.

Severance is a fantastic show. So many interesting concepts to wrap your mind around. Also great for discussion. I don't remember talking as much about a show week to week with coworkers since maybe Lost. However I'm also worried some of this won't really lead to anything cohesive like Lost as well.

I agree this feels like a Bills landing spot assuming they won't repeat from last year's teams. I'm thinking Cincy@Buffalo sounds about right, or maybe Philly.

I don't get why people are so against the chains. Unless you initially measure wrong when creating them I don't see how they can be inaccurate. The problem is spotting the ball. That seems to me to be the area that needs electronic assistance.

The refs and the league didn't think so based on the flag and subsequent fine.

Way too many specific football game memories to list them all out. In general though I will always remember my earliest visits as a kid with my Grandma. She would always bring a thermos with hot cocoa for the cold games when you were still allowed to bring stuff like that in. Small things like that really added to the magic of that place as a kid. For non football though I will never forget the Metallica / Guns and Roses concert in 1992. That was an insane time.

Congrats! Celebrating 10 on a cruise this August as well.

I'm sure it will be a big talking point this season. I recall it being a thing during the 2019 season when the Pats*** were looking to reach their 4th straight.

Well technically you'd have to throw the Cardinals in there as well seeing they were a part of that division for the first 4 Super Bowl losses. 😈😁
