I will make it to the tailgate, but possibly needing to park somewhere else because of timing only.

When I was a kid, the corner family pub in Hamburg on Lake Shore (Wanakah) was the Cloverbank Hotel. In those days it was common to have a family dining room, separated from the bar with a wall. We got mostly Fish Fries and beef sandwiches for dinner. The way I remember it being ordered, beef on weck was a sliced beef sandwich on white bread with mashed potatoes, drowned in gravy. This was meant to be eaten with a fork. Beef on Kummelweck then was what we know today as simply Beef on Weck, with the salty roll, but that was over 50 yeas ago .

Hi, Bob! A lot of Silence of the Lambs imagery there!

See you there (and please bring my tickets!)

Wow! Tough crowd!

I guess I am an average fan, with some high points. My father was a founder of the Buffalo Bills Boosters Club, Inc. in 1960. I wear his Boosters coat to snow games. I went to many games at the Rockpile. I was escorted out of one game for throwing snowballs at the Dolphins. I went to games during the 80's drought. I watched the comeback game standing in a bar to the finish. I have been with TBD since day one. I have been to all but one or two TBDAHOTs and camped out at Hammers for several. I am a cofounder of the WNYTBDGPS. But I am not great at names and Jersey numbers. I do not go crazy about the draft, although I did get suite tickets in 2001 for the draft. I am a Lot One Pole 6 veteran. I do not post at TBD as often as I used to, but I enjoy the comments of those who have something to say. I took the stage the year there was a band on game day and sang Funk 49 by the James Gang. There is something kind of cool hearing your daughter yell "Mom, Dad's on stage singing with the band. " So I am an unusual average fan, I guess.

Prayers for her well being. I met you, Cindy, AiO, Jay, and many other TBD old timers at St. John Fisher training camp. I first met Jay when I wore a Bills Jersey with "Rockpile" on the back. I met quite a few people when wearing that shirt! I am mostly a lurker these days.

I was a pony tail with braids kind of guy. Now I just shave what little hair is left. BTW, in the 90's, kids were calling bald top old guys with gray pony tails hair style a "skullet".

A lot of "old" television shows that were very popular, were really only good for one (sometimes two) seasons before they jumped the shark. Also, threading that AKAI with new tape when you were stoned could take quite a while. 😁

He needs to relax a bit. You can see he really wants this!

It will be interesting to see when more tickets become available and at what price!

I will see you all there! 👍

Drum Roll Please! The total raised for the 2021 MS Walk was $ 906.50! It was a very successful year as always. We took no pictures just to piss off Jack. We will be doing another virtual walk in Connecticut in a few weeks to see "Babyrock" and family. We may post some pictures then! Thank you to my TBD sponsors: Greybeard Mr Info Jack Be happy, healthy, and safe. Maybe I will see you at the Bills home opener at Hammers Lot!

MS Walk will be starting soon. It's not too late too sponsor me if you want. Thank you to those who contributed. TSW Rocks!

I am counting on things getting better. 👍

Thank You! We have a goal of $1500, and (with checks being processed) we are up to $827. The MS Walk is three days away.

I will be there. Depending on vaccination requirements - I am hoping everyone with me has the vaccine before then!

I will be there with my daughter and two others. I am concerned about vaccination requirements. Will our friend Eric be allowed to amend his policy for Hammer's Lot? It seems our Governor and Cuomo disagree on the criteria. Also, with talk of one section for vaccinated and one for non-vaccinated fans, what happens to my four seats? 😐

Nine Days Left! Just BUMPing this post. As of today, including checks being processed Family Rocks has been sponsored for $621.00 Total since 2003 has exceeded $24,000 in sponsors!! Thank you. (link in quoted part of message if you want to sponsor me)

It's time for my annual request of my friends at Two Bills Drive to sponsor me in a fund raiser to benefit the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. I do not post a lot anymore, but I have been lurking since day one of this web site. Hopefully we will meet for a Garbage Plate for the Home Opener again this year. Many of you know I was diagnosed with MS way back in 1994, but thanks to advances in treatment that get better each year, I can live a relatively normal life. There was a time when a diagnosis of MS meant getting measured for a wheelchair, but things have greatly advanced sine then Because of COVID-19 precautions, we will not be walking in large groups again this year. On May 15, 2021 we will be walking in a variety of ways to raise funds to help find the cure for Multiple Sclerosis. Since 2003 we have raised nearly $24,000 thanks to YOU! I would estimate that TBD has been responsible for close to 75% of the funds raised in the past. Please support me by clicking on Family Rocks! Any amount helps! 100% of your donation goes to the MS Society. God Bless and Thank you all!

But the 20% - Levon Helm - helped his Canadian brothers turn gospel + blues + rock into "Americana".

Cancel Jeopardy before this would happen!

I will be happy if the Bills win their next game, and I will try to take it a week at a time until there are no more games to play this season.

Option 2 - family first. This is just my opinion, and it works for me. I have been saying "Wait until next year since 1967!
