  1. I grew up near there. Kenmore was always a cute town. The developer is putting in an investment of around 10M to create 35 apartments at "market rate". If these were condos, I could see your value going up. Rentals can go either way. If they are upscale, it could be great. What are the rates for the old Kenmore Towers up the street? That could give an indication of what is in store. At least you have a short walk to Mikes Subs and Condrell's!
  2. Front left corner of Hammers lot. For the opener (Monday night) Hammer can provide details as to when he will be opening. Since it is a popular lot, chances are it will be full by 4pm (Watch the gameday list for TBD sign up sheet about a week or so before the game if you want to park with us) Hope to see you there.
  3. I have a friend who was related to Bruce DeHaven, I have 2 starter jackets, a few sweatshirts and a windbreaker. When he moved on to Dallas/Carolina he asked my buddy "Don't you have a Bills fan where you live? " His wife brought them to the next family gathering and gave them to my buddy. (I think the warm weather starter jacket was the Tennessee Throw back game)
  4. Wow, even NESN is not singing the happy tunes about the offense https://nesn.com/2022/08/why-david-andrews-behavior-after-patriots-practice-so-telling/?sf169060537=1
  5. We already have a retirement place in Chapin SC, its in a golf community with a 41 mile long lake for boating and fishing. We have some friends who live nearby and love the area. We hope to spend some time there to see if we really like it, but the West coast of Florida seems to be where people from Long Island and this area seem to do the winters, With that in mind, we have been passively looking in Naples or West coast of Florida to be around people we know from here.
  6. Cletus' wife and kids appear twice in the video
  7. As a kid I couldn't understand why we traded Briscoe, one of our best players, it just didn't make sense to me. I also remember when they traded Haven Moses and I was devastated. RIP Marlin the Magician
  8. The A/C unit Al bought was the "Kaiser 5000" Loved that show
  9. You misspelled Marty Feldman
  10. We will be there, amazing that it as already 100 years since this started....
  11. I remember Calvin Murphy and Big Bob going at it at those little three games. My dad was doing photography for NU since he had graduated there about 10 years prior. He would drag me along and I sat on the sidelines with the camera bag while watching these guys. RIP Big Bob
  12. What may be a solution is what I have suggested to my Bills ticket rep which was met with "gee sounds great", but since the Bills and their partners (ticketbastard) get no revenues it got rejected. These are just off the top of my head, please add any additional thoughts Possible solution for consideration: Current Stadium We have many TBD members who have Season Tickets Not all TBD STH attend all games Create a more formal pool of unused tickets available from our TBD STH members at set prices (maybe a small mark up) for unused tickets Non STH TBD members participating in the process have first options on unused tickets and availability may fluctuate, but a "snake draft" or similar methodology can be used to determine order of selection. TBD STH who are long term planners can advise the group which tickets they will not be using in advance, let the TBD non STH group absorb those tickets and guarantee Bills fans are in those seats. In some cases, tickets may become available late in the week, in this instance a notification could go out to the next 5-10 participants on the list advising that tickets are available. Once tickets are released/purchased, the new owner is the ticketholder. (Re-sale for profit is strongly is frowned upon) Perhaps a "switch seats" option for TBD STH where a participant can swap seats for a game, or get credit for game "A" to be used for game "C" Upsides: TDB has an outlet for long distance STH who cannot make all games Known Bills fans are in our seats TBD non STH don't have to negotiate/pay fees in secondary market Downsides: Drunken hooligan behavior can ruin a STH reputation and get him/her kicked off the list (If drunks show up at my seats and the Bills/Ticketmaster sold them, I am free and clear) ST holders may want their seats back if a conflict clears (too bad, seat is gone) Going forward to new stadium: Individuals wishing to transition to become PSL holders can do so, the extra fee charged per ticket may be bumped up a bit to compensate the PSL holder If the current TBD STH coordinate properly, different locations can be secured where we may have 15-30 seats together in various sections, some in the upper deck, others lower bowl 20-40 yds, maybe some club seats Similar selection process for unused tickets can migrate to new stadium This is a straw man, tear it up
  13. I didn't see what shake-up you are referring to, but it is an interesting proposal, I may be interested. I have seats that I now am able to use and get to about 5-6 out of an 8 game season. Setting up a model that is equitable to all participants may be challenging, but certainly worth exploring.
  14. I have used Sorrento's on Sheridan Drive in Tonawanda. They are next to Teds Hot Dogs and across the street from Andersons. They did a great job, I dropped it off and they mailed it back to me in NY.
  15. Such a momentous occasion should be celebrated with Haiku and consumption of warm meat products! Happy birthday Joe!
  16. Thats not all that grows... So you work with Caitlen Jenner??
  17. Between this and your YMCA performances, is there something you need to share? (Not that there is anything wrong with that)
  18. I went to Niagara University after going to St Joes. Both my parents went to Niagara as commuters, and strongly suggested I stay in the dorms. Some of the best advice I ever got. I made plenty of friends, some of which I still have contact with to this day. My wife also went there and she still talks (and talks, and talks, and talks) to me every day. I can still pick up the phone and call 5-10 different people we went to school with and pick up right where we left off. As for high school friends, since I moved away after Niagara, I never kept in touch, and never went to any reunions. For the Niagara ones, I am planning on the 40th this June and am looking forward to it.
  19. I think OJ had the same problem
  20. That's the whole point, when I was 21, I'm sure I annoyed people who ran into me at 3 am in Mighty Taco or whatever sub shop was close, but that affected the handful of people who witnessed my shenanigans first hand. By using social media to document your idiocy, you expand the audience for criticism (as well as your "reach" to your followers). Social media gives him the ability to touch more people, but that just increases his ability to annoy more people.
  21. Ok, nothing for nothing, but I would retire if that was my girlfriend... just saying
  22. I got the same thing, I don't know if that happens if they fail to meet the goal, or maybe Mary (Cindy's sister) may have chosen not to use it.
  23. "If you have a choice between Murder and manslaughter, go for manslaughter"
  24. Good interview, just wish Josh would have ended it with "Go Bills" like he always does.
  25. That was why I tuned in, she is a Buffalo girl
