Hi Dr.: I respect your feelings on tailgating, but believe you are in the minority. My season tickets go back to 1973 when the stadium first opened. There was massive tailgating almost from the very beginning and it continued to grow. Many RV owners begin there "paring lot ritual" on Saturday for Sunday games and stay through Monday. The RV group has become quite a close knit community.
The Bills have been relevant since the McDermott/Beane era. I don't believe tailgating has diminished since we no longer suck. If anything, it has grown since our tailgating rituals have received more national coverage.
Since you don't care for tailgating, you certainly don't have to participate. But why take this opportunity away from the thousands of Bills fans that enjoy to extend their game day enjoyment of barbequing, having some adult beverages, and communing with other Bills fans before and after games?
The Raider's lost their tailgating options with their new stadium being located on a postage stamp lot near the Las Vegas strip. Let's hope this does not happen the the greatest fan base in the NFL.
Go Orchard Park Bills!!!
