Exactly. I mean, why switch it up now?

 

Actually, I went to the last SB in Atlanta and had a great time despite the loss. Ended up being interviewed on CNN when we arrived back in Buffalo. Was involved in a class action lawsuit against Small World Travel because they didn't provide the tickets as part of the charter excursion. We ended up scalping them off some car dealers that got them as an incentive. Paid $1,000 for each ticket - all in $20s. I'd love to go again - but it will be pricey.

While I might get caught up in some riot I actually might want to be at RWS as they show the game on the big screen. To be there celebrating (assuming we win) with thousands of other Bills fans would be awesome.

I imagine the riot scene from Bruce Almighty would take place when we win. Even though that was for the Sabres winning the Cup, you could place either team in that situation.

 

Would like to be back in Buffalo with family when it happens.

Man, I don't know. Most of my Bills-loving family are gone, except for my cousins. But I'm far away from them. The only thing I could imagine is taking my cousin to see it in person, which would be an incredible thing to experience if they win. But man, that would be pricey.

 

If not that, then I have no idea who I'd watch it with. It might have to be just by myself. Over the years, my tolerance for watching games has taken a nosedive, and I get nervous as hell, even during games that don't mean a damn thing and they're fighting for last place. I don't think anyone else would want to watch a game with me. I can't imagine the kind of meds I would need to be on now to watch a Bills Super Bowl.

 

I went to one of the SBs in the glory years -- the worst one, of course (52-17) -- and it was pretty depressing. It would be nice to make up for that.

 

Cmon Rubes, I watched a game with you and you are a lot tamer then me.....think both of us have prolly become worse on game days over the last decade.

 

I will be in Buffalo. Like Rubes, been to 2. , no desire to go on site anymore.

I would rather be in the city of Buffalo a million times over being at the game. I would have to see and feel all the sights and sounds that would go along with Buffalo being a champion. If I did not watch it at my house, I would rent out a private room for friends and family so everyone was together with solid viewing.

All I know is that as the confetti is streaming over the victorious Bills players, Mrs. Lew and I will

be packing the car and heading to Buffalo for the greatest victory parade ever.

Personally I want to be nowhere near that game. I think I'll be back in Buffalo but I'll probably watch it alone and if they win I'll be there for the after party and if they lose I'll be there to get drunk and be miserable

i'm giving myself another 21 seasons, before having myself cryogenically frozen at the Cryonic Institute in Clinton Township. Michigan.

 

if we get to one before then, i'll watch it at home with family and friends.

 

otherwise, i'll leave instruction to be thawed out in time to make the 4 hour drive - will we still be using automobiles? - to Pegula, NY in time for kick-off - will we still have kick-offs?

i'll scalp a ticket for about 50,000 Pegollars and take the express lift to the upper deck of the 400,000 seat Fred Jackson Stadium, where i'll squint through my Kimmyscope at the simulated action below.

i'll cheer on the holograms of my beloved Bills - the actual game will be played in Bon Jovi Park in Toronto, which i won't be able to afford - until the final whistle blows.

then, the previously arranged arrival of two scantily clad red, white and blue haired vixens will serve me my BillsSleep potion, and i will be gently lifted and dropped into the Russ Brandon Memorial Fans Chute for tidy post-game disposal.

Good thread.

 

I would most likely rule out "going to the superbowl" unless I won a ticket. The potential risk of dropping thousands of dollars to see them lose is FAR greater than the potential reward of dropping thousands of dollars to celebrate with fewer, less-intimate fans in a city that isn't Buffalo.

 

I figure I'd be back in WNY, with a reunion of good Bills fan friends and family that I know are in the same boat as I am. While all Bills fans are great to celebrate with, I wouldn't want to NOT be around those that are closest to me: those that have the sat through the miserable games with me and those that have partied their asses off with me along the way.

 

Put me in a living room, with the valuables tucked away, and with the beers on ice. 8 friends at most. Only Bills diehards. No neutrals, no apologists. A basic beer/liquor/pizza/wing/dip spread that will not run out. Yep, that's where I'll watch the game.

I love that guy! They did a story on him a few years ago - he seems much more mellow now.

 

I wish I could post the CNN video; it was hilarious. Showed fat drunk guys jumping into a sidewalk hot tub, people screaming in bars ("they did the same damn thing last year!!"), and a guy literally crying in his beer. A masterpiece. I transferred it from VHS to DVD but haven't looked into how to convert it to a video format to upload onto YouTube.

Alone because thats the only way I'll be able to actually watch the game. Plus I don't want to put anyone through me getting sick if they lose.

Posted

who do you want to be with you, and where will you be watching?

 

Personally, I'll do everything I can to be there in person with my son. I think I have a shot to be able to do that, but if I can't, I want to be home with my wife, kids and Mom. It will be quite the celebration when we win. How about you?

In Buffalo. With friends and family. I'll add: 2017 (2016 season)
