  1. A large sinkhole swallows Bellicheat, the Cheaters, Cheating Douchebag Tom Brady, and a large contigent of deserving mass hole fans. It is whatever the opposite of natural disaster is.
  2. My brother and I started also taking our sons with us to the games with my Dad around 15 yrs ago - one game after a disappointing loss in a year the Bills had hope my nephew turned to me and said "I just want Grandpa to see the Bills win the Super Bowl" ("before he dies" implied). Will never forget that
  3. What time did you get there? I was wondering if getting in/out would be easier Lot 2 vs Lot 6 - but either way we are prepared to just wait it out for a while (which will drive my Dad nuts - one of his big things was always the race to the car in the off-site lot to get out and beat traffic 😛 ) I was surprised the person I talked to said both ADA lots were same capacity when ADA Lot 6 is so much smaller on map - then I remembered from going to ADA Lot 6 for open practice there were a bunch of handicap spots in the 'real' Lot 6 just before the entrance to the actual ADA lot - so am thinking that is lumped in with the capacity. As far as getting to seat, I said above normally we are in club which I know we'd be able to access w/ ramps - but as fate would have it this time we are upper level so think we'd have to take elevator. It sounds like someone from guest services should be able to take care of us once we enter the gate to get us where we need to go.
  4. I'll be watching the Mannings again
  5. I was just about to make a joke about catchable balls but decided against
  6. Will there be a large crowd, will it be windy?
  7. OK - I finally got through to someone at Guest Services - sharing info for those interested. - They weren't really sure if ADA lots always fill up, but did suggest getting there before 11 - When I asked about if ADA 6 would be better to target than 2 b/c it was bigger she said they were the same size (? they don't look the same size on the map) - She confirmed once you get in the gate you can locate a guest service person who can provide wheelchair transportation to seat (I forgot to ask about after game - not sure if they leave wheelchair somewhere in/near tunnel, or if someone is waiting with it etc - guess we'll find out Sun) I think the plan will be to target getting to ADA Lot 6 before 11 and get a wheelchair once we enter the gate.
  8. He's one of the original fans I was going through my head thinking where ramps are. I then realized we usually get club seats (it's an annual pilgrimage by me and my brother to take my Dad to the game for his bday) but this year we were only able to get upper level (never mind that now people can get second hand seats in lower level for less than we paid :p). I looked some more and it looks like there's an elevator that goes to the top of the 300 level. This could be quite the adventure. I also found this on the Bills gameday site "Wheelchair transportation is available from stadium gates to a guest's seat prior to the game and after as well." which is good to know. BTW - here's good article I found on the current stadium shortcomings that includes some ADA things as you mentioned https://buffalonews.com/sports/bills/pegula-executives-renovating-highmark-stadium-for-bills-is-just-not-realistic/article_c373cc30-fc96-11eb-b6db-0b8d5d25abf5.html Thanks. First time I called I was on hold for over an hour and was disconnected . Trying again - might have to hang up eventually b/c of high level meetings 😛
  9. Had a few questions about Handicap parking at the stadium on game day. For years and years have been going to games w/ my Dad and parking in private lots off Abbott. He’s 87 now and is slowing down – the walk has been tough for him the last few years. For the open practices this summer he allowed us to use his handicap placard (which I didn’t even know he had b/c he doesn’t use it). We parked in ADA Lot 6 on the north end of the stadium. I think we’ve convinced him to use the placard for the game this week. Questions: - Do the ADA lots fill up? Do we need to get there very early to ensure we get a spot? - Related to above, we would be coming from the north, Abbot/Southwestern, closer to ADA Lot 6, but ADA Lot 2 is bigger – would that be a better option than ADA Lot 6? (Also seems it might be easier to exit the stadium from ADA Lot 2?) - For open practice – going to ADA Lot 6, we entered the main lots off Southwestern and were just waved on by attendants to the ADA lot – I assume the process is the same on game day? (Looks like ADA Lot 2 is just a direct access of Abbot) Bonus question: My Dad is currently dealing with a minor leg injury which is affecting his mobility even more right now. We don’t have Handicap seats, but were thinking of borrowing a wheelchair to get him to the (regular seats) IF we can convince him to use it (we’ve brought this up the last couple years as something to make his life easier getting into the stadium and he’s been adamantly opposed to it – but with his current injury we might have a shot). Does anyone have experience wheeling someone in who does not have handicap seats – just wondering what we do with the wheelchair - if we can talk to an usher and stash the wheelchair at the top of the tunnel or something. Appreciate any responses – Thanks – Go Bills

  20. The best thing about the Mannings on Mon night was them making fun of players beng involved in haltime adjustments "What halftime adjustments? You have just enough time to go to the bathroom and eat some oranges" 😛
  21. Love them going for points w/ only 26 secs left
  22. IT looked like it was there for a second - he would have had to beat someone but would take my chances him 1-1 in open field
