JÂy RÛßeÒ Posted April 29, 2010 Posted April 29, 2010 I do one a year and try not to repeat. Week 2 @ Packers Week 3 @ Pats* Week 7 @ Ravens Week 8 @ Chiefs (Halloween) Week 11 @ Bengals Week 13 @ Vikings Week 15 @ fish Week 17 @ Jets Been to games in Cinci, NY & Miami so they're out. The Halloween game is out - I do have kids. I've been to a game in Minnesota, but it was a Super Bowl. Mid-November in Minny ain't really floating my boat. So it's down to one of the first 3. I'd love to do Green Bay, it's their home opener and tickets already look wicked expensive. I don't have much desire to go to New England until we start beating them again. So I'm leaning slightly to Baltimore, which will feature many of my good TBD friends. thoughts?

That's your game! Try the crab cakes and pit beef.
1B4IDie Posted April 29, 2010 Posted April 29, 2010 I don't know anyone in Baltimore but I'm told that there is a decent Bills following there. That's your game! Try the crab cakes and pit beef. Ravens have a nice tail-gaiting area. I live in the DC area and Baltimore is the closest thing to Buffalo on the East Coast. Fans are serious too. It can be a fun town and fun time. The Bills Backers of Baltimore will put togther a tailgate with the 3 Bills Backers Clubs in the DC area. There is pretty much guaranteed to be a big Bills tailgate. I go to atleast 1 road games a year. I'm going to Lambeau. Tickets are going to be $180-$250. There is no getting around that as far as I can tell. But the Bills aren't likely to play in Lambeau again until they move to LA and become the LA Quake. Then thinking about Minnesota. I try to go to NFC teams because of the NFL schedule we won't play them as often.
JÂy RÛßeÒ Posted April 29, 2010 Author Posted April 29, 2010 I don't know anyone in Baltimore Sure you do... SDS, R. Rich, G. Host are all close to Baltimore
Just Jack Posted April 29, 2010 Posted April 29, 2010 Baltimore. You don't want to make R. Rich angry by picking somewhere else.
JÂy RÛßeÒ Posted April 29, 2010 Author Posted April 29, 2010 Baltimore. You don't want to make R. Rich angry by picking somewhere else. This is a good point. It's also driveable, which is a plus.
VABills Posted April 29, 2010 Posted April 29, 2010 B'more is okay. You do have to actually deal with Scott though in person after all the times you've crashed the board. It is done at some bar across the street from Camdon yards.
Calgary_JG Posted April 29, 2010 Posted April 29, 2010 I went to the season opener last year in NE and it was awesome! I was the most hated guy in Foxborough for about 58 mins of that game. The NE fans are pretty arrogant but if you have fun with them I found they had fun with me back. Anyway, the stadium is a great venue, the only downside is its about 60 miles from Boston (and we stayed in Boston) so it was quite a time getting there and back. if you're going just for the game / tailgate I'd recommend staying in Foxborough.
Just Jack Posted April 29, 2010 Posted April 29, 2010 This is a good point. It's also driveable, which is a plus. When I went down in the spring of 2004, I drove, I think it was about 6 hours from Syracuse. Stayed in the Inner Harbor area, I don't remember which hotel, but it was only a block or two away which made it cheaper than being right on the water, and there was a parking garage across the street. So once I got there, I never needed my truck the rest of the weekend, I just walked every where.
Max Fischer Posted April 29, 2010 Posted April 29, 2010 Baltimore. Great stadium, good fans, good food, fun town. Bills fans welcome. My next choice is Kansas City. Underrated city (great football food), sweet sports complex (Kaufman Stadium is one of my favorite ballparks). Green Bay is a nice (obvious?) choice but the town pretty much blows. Friends rave about Gillette Stadium but I don't think I could stomach watching the Bills lose in Foxboro.
Cereal Posted April 29, 2010 Posted April 29, 2010 I don't know anyone in Baltimore but I'm told that there is a decent Bills following there. That's your game! Try the crab cakes and pit beef. I second Baltimore - that'll be my away game too since I'm in VA. BUT, consider that we'll only play @GB every eight years (given current schedule scheme). Also, if I was going to GB, I'd probably like to go in December.
Rubes Posted April 29, 2010 Posted April 29, 2010 Doesn't sound like you needed that much help at all. What are we, your crutch?

eball Posted April 29, 2010 Posted April 29, 2010 Baltimore's the ticket -- that's the one I'm planning to attend.

It was well supported and everyone had a great time.

The Inner Harbor still is very walk friendly and the area has many forms of transportation.

Try the crab cakes and pit beef. also try baltimore's inner harbor and the fish market - former div 1 head coach here and i went there a lot and i always had a nice time in baltimore
