apuszczalowski Posted October 11, 2010 Posted October 11, 2010 I'm going to start using those excuses and throw cans and bottles out my car window and in parks/city streets. "Im' just supporting the homeless and keeping people employed"
Offside Number 76 Posted October 11, 2010 Posted October 11, 2010 While I’m at it I may as well get a few more things off my chest. I don’t mind the drinking and getting loud as long as it’s done responsibly and respectably but the Spring Break atmosphere I could do without, unlike most of you tailgaters who act like they just walked off a Girls Gone Wild video. Also, as if the all the drunken fools falling over their seats spilling their beer and nacho cheese on everyone was not enough, I could never imagine taking my 8 and 10 year old nieces to the game for fear that they might get an ear full of foul nasty language. My nieces would have loved to see the cheerleaders but I would never expose them to the fans yelling down to the Jills “dance for me whores”. Also, half the stadium cheering for the girl fight that started up in the stands NFL games are not for children. Just because a sport is involved doesn't mean that it has to be a kid-friendly environment.
apuszczalowski Posted October 11, 2010 Posted October 11, 2010 NFL games are not for children. Just because a sport is involved doesn't mean that it has to be a kid-friendly environment. Why not? You should be able to take our family to a sporting event. The problem is the drunken idiots have taken over and think they run the place and its their right to be idiots
whateverdude Posted October 11, 2010 Author Posted October 11, 2010 (edited) NFL games are not for children. Just because a sport is involved doesn't mean that it has to be a kid-friendly environment. Funny I didn't see that printed on any of my tickets or in the NFLs mission statement?? Guess the NFL did not get the memo to stop marketing to kids Edited October 11, 2010 by whateverdude

Look, I'm not one of the drunken idiots, but I don't understand why people think it's a God-given right to take their children everywhere. Sport is good; so is music. Kids enjoy both. But NFL games and rock concerts are places where grown-ups go to blow off some steam. It's our turf. (By our, I mean grown-up, not drunk.) Take the kids to a Bandits game or a UB game instead, or understand that you are bringing your children into a grown-up environment where they will hear foul language, and unfortunately, encounter drunken idiots. whateverdude, cmmon sense doesn't need to be printed on tickets, and the mission statement comment is just stupid. Look, I agree with your stance on the garbage, but with all the rest of the complaints, it sounds like an NFL game is not the place for you to be; 72,000 people are not going to change their behaviors to suit you. (Or me, which is one reason why I don't go to many games.)
akm0404 Posted October 11, 2010 Posted October 11, 2010 Oh jeez, you probably hate people standing up during the game too. Watch at home if you don't want the atmosphere. They bleep out the "foul language" so your virgin ears won't be offended. Also, you can take your kids to a game. That is, if you are a decent parent who isn't afraid of their kids hearing some *omg* FOUL NASTY LANGUAGE. It would just be a shame if little Jimmy saw someone drinking evil alcoholic beverages and using words that mommy and daddy doesn't say. One Bills game, and your niece is doomed for a life of prostitution. *rolls eyes* Learn to parent better if someone saying the F-word is going to morally corrupt your child.

I guess its ok with you to call the Jills "whores" and they heard it, and its ok for no exaggeration half the stadium near section 108 to egg on a girl fight and its ok for the people in front of me to be covered in nacho cheese and beer spill by fans who can not control themselves? All I'm asking is to respect my person, my space, my team, my family my town and other people wanting to enjoy the game by acting like adults when attending. Edited October 11, 2010 by whateverdude
Cookiemonster Posted October 11, 2010 Posted October 11, 2010 Whenever I go past the stadium a few hours after the games it looks like a hell hole of trash. Its embarrassing really. I always think of the commercial in the 70's when the Indian has a tear coming down his face from all the trash on the side of the road. I'm not against leaving your cans and bottles but it really is sad. Please, he is a freakin millionaire casino owner now, he now sports a chesire grin.
akm0404 Posted October 11, 2010 Posted October 11, 2010 its ok for the people in front of me to be covered in nacho cheese This is where we learn for sure that you're making things up/exaggerating things. Everyone who has been to a Bills game knows that the Nacho Cheese receptacle is WAY too small to cover someone.

I have a problem with the first item, but that's about it. I doubt the people in front of you were "covered" in cheese and beer (if they were, they should have talked to an usher), and I know that much more than half of the stadium is not near section 108 (and I don't really care about two girls who were stupid enough to get into a fight, either). And that was not all you were asking; you were asking for the game to be the perfect environment for your nieces. It will not be the perfect environment for your nieces.
SwampD Posted October 11, 2010 Posted October 11, 2010 The last time I went to a Bills game at the Ralph, the one thing that really offended me was that there were all these people enjoying themselves. What gives? Don't they know that we are still involved in conflicts overseas, people are unemployed or underemployed, starvation, disease, the list goes on and on. This is no time for merriment! How dare they actually have fun during times like these?!

Everyone who has been to a Bills game knows that the Nacho Cheese receptacle is WAY too small to cover someone. Maybe we could have a wet nacho cheese contest. I belive that nacho cheese, spred evenly, will allow transparency. It would also probably perk them up a bit.

[/quote and i might add not cheering on a chick fight is at the very least un masculine, and possible even anti-American!! whateverdude..I am assuming you are one of those high falutin Canadiens coming over to watch our American game???

Yeah right I gotcha, who care about anyone but ME and my enjoyment, because the world revolves around me. people will pick up after me and its your problem if you get in the way of what I want It's all about me me me and my urges and my needs the hell with everyone else I could care less.
Another Point of View Posted October 11, 2010 Posted October 11, 2010 Next time, leave full beer cans, I will pick them up for you!

whateverdude Posted October 11, 2010 Author Posted October 11, 2010 Boy, I bet you are a barrel of monkeys to hang out with. Fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life.
plenzmd1 Posted October 11, 2010 Posted October 11, 2010 Fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life. It is the proper way to go to a Bills game however
akm0404 Posted October 11, 2010 Posted October 11, 2010 Fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life. But being a terrible, overprotective parent dripping with cynicism and anti-social tendencies is the way to go. Cool job with the name calling. Pretty much proves my point that you are a black hole where fun goes to die.
section122 Posted October 11, 2010 Posted October 11, 2010 Wow the anger and venom being spewed. Not everyone that drinks and gets loud at a bills game is fat, drunk, and/or stupid but your generalization is appreciated. Yes even if there is cans and garbage strewn about it does not reflect solely on Bills fans. Go anywhere that there is a mass gathering of ppl and it will happen. People have fun at Bills games and yes sometimes one person's fun infringes on another but seriously the garbage in the stadium is what ppl are choosing to get this upset about? Can you imagine the amount of garbage we will leave behind when we have something to celebrate inside the stadium and dont rush to our cars and out of the parking lot immediately? p.s. Yep I stand... the entire game or until ppl that want to ruin the fun get the ushers to tell me to sit down. First down, third down, whenever, the 12th man isn't on the wall because we sit on our hands!
