fansince88 Posted March 8, 2015 Posted March 8, 2015 I noticed today everyone that sees me with my Bills cap or sweater on wants to talk team with me. Twice today already I had perfect strangers and once last night approach me about the Bills. Not since the 90s has that been an issue. Here are the three episodes: 1) Last night after my daughters musical (Fiddler on the roof) a man walked towards me and rips his jacket open to show me his Bills Shirt and says time to shine!. Yes that was a little weird. 2) This morning when in the church my wife goes to a guy came up to me while I was holding my hat a guy walked across the room to me and starts the conversation with, "Your team isn't fooling around with the McCoy trade huh? 3) On the way into the gas station to pay my pump bill a guy almost knocked me over to get the door and say. This is our year man! GO BILLS! WOW! What stories have you had. Have you seen an increase as I have since Rex came to town? Share them here
Codyny13 Posted March 8, 2015 Posted March 8, 2015 I agree. As a NYC bills fan, im obviously surrounded by all things jets and giants. Ever since Rex got hired I get approached all the time. All my buddy's text me every time there's some bit of news too. As if I need there insight on something we've been talking about for a week on here.
John from Riverside Posted March 8, 2015 Posted March 8, 2015 Everybody noticin my Bills gym bag while I was liftin to day.......
fansince88 Posted March 8, 2015 Author Posted March 8, 2015 I wear Bills stuff almost every day.(cap mostly) because I keep my head warm. Never get any attention except to give me grief for being a fan. Now different story.
BillsFan130 Posted March 8, 2015 Posted March 8, 2015 as a bills fan living in Ontario I've been getting approached all the time recently when I wear my bills jacket. can't wait for the season to start!

LeviF Posted March 8, 2015 Posted March 8, 2015 I wear Bills stuff almost every day.(cap mostly) because I keep my head warm. Never get any attention except to give me grief for being a fan. Now different story. Whenever I wear Bills stuff around here the only people that say anything are other Bills fans. That's changed up a little in the past couple of weeks.

dwight in philly Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 (edited) i have been living in philly since 2008 and i wear a bills cap, sweatshirt, whatever, but its not so much the locals who start the conversation , its transplants.. its like a magnet obviously.. i have met so many people here from western ny because of the bills stuff.. what is also refreshing is that the people from western ny are so much more friendly outgoing.. the natives here are pretty much as one would think, miserable.. just a few are "normal!".. its just a feeling you get when you see that buffalo person..

K D Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 This has been the most up and down offseason in our team's history. It's like a rollercoaster of emotions. The Bills are certainly a team to talk about now
Dorkington Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 I get stopped all the time in DC when I'm wearing Bills gear... but that's been the same for 10 years that I've lived here, it's really weird.
3rdand12 Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 the arguments (discussions) have taken an up tick at work.
BillsFan-4-Ever Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 give it a week once the Bills slow down and other teams start making moves.
