The Real Buffalo Joe Posted September 13, 2016 Posted September 13, 2016 Have you ever burnt, or intentionally threw out an otherwise good jersey due to a new dislike of the player? Who and why?
BillnutinHouston Posted September 13, 2016 Posted September 13, 2016 No. But this offseason I repurposed an old throwback Trent Edwards to a Tyrod. It looks really sweet but if Tyrod flames out this year, that jersey just might too.
BuffaloMatt Posted September 13, 2016 Posted September 13, 2016 I pulled the stitches on my Fitzpatrick jersey so Fitz's name came off when Sammy picked 14.
jimmy10 Posted September 13, 2016 Posted September 13, 2016 No. I did burn a pile of old tickets once. And a box of TO's. After the Dallas Monday night debacle, my buddy in Vegas took his terra cotta buffalo statue out in the desert and shot it to pieces.
Gugny Posted September 13, 2016 Posted September 13, 2016 I threw away a perfectly decent Flutie jersey. The only jersey I've ever tossed. And I have not a shred of regret.
WotAGuy Posted September 13, 2016 Posted September 13, 2016 No. But this offseason I repurposed an old throwback Trent Edwards to a Tyrod. It looks really sweet but if Tyrod flames out this year, that jersey just might too. So it's YOUR fault Tyrod has turned into Captain Checkdown
Over 29 years of fanhood Posted September 13, 2016 Posted September 13, 2016 No. But this offseason I repurposed an old throwback Trent Edwards to a Tyrod. It looks really sweet but if Tyrod flames out this year, that jersey just might too. I wonder if a number can ever be retired due to futility?
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted September 13, 2016 Posted September 13, 2016 I've taken part in a mass jersey burning (specifically a titans jersey).
May Day 10 Posted September 13, 2016 Posted September 13, 2016 I was wearing a color rush jersey, and the color was so intense, the jersey burst into flames. I had to kump through a table and my friends poured beer on me to stop it
K D Posted September 13, 2016 Posted September 13, 2016 Didn't 103.3 burn a bunch of Bills stuff to try and end the curse? Maybe they need to burn some more. I have the following jerseys to donate: Lynch, Spiller, TO, soon to be McCoy, I'll probably keep my Fred #22 though
MarkMiller Posted September 13, 2016 Posted September 13, 2016 (edited) Yup! Well, close ... On October 25, 2015, after EJ threw what felt like his 48th pick of the game, I calmly took my EJ Chinese bootleg jersey off and proceeded to throw it outside on my patio. It has been there ever since, and I told my Wife that it would stay there until we enter the Playoffs ... pretty amazing how resilient the fabric is, though. It has sat through ALOT of terrible weather. Edited September 13, 2016 by MarkMiller
BigPappy Posted September 13, 2016 Posted September 13, 2016 Didn't 103.3 burn a bunch of Bills stuff to try and end the curse? Maybe they need to burn some more. I have the following jerseys to donate: Lynch, Spiller, TO, soon to be McCoy, I'll probably keep my Fred #22 though If they wanted to lift the curse, Flutie should have been in the jersey. I'm actually a Flutie fan, so I would rather just cut the head off a live chicken and do that voodoo BS they talk about in the movie Major League. LOL!!! I know, I know..... this is Football and i used a Baseball reference.
Best Player Available Posted September 13, 2016 Posted September 13, 2016 Yup! Well, close ...

It has sat through ALOT of terrible weather. Get back too us in 2025 when after they expand the playoffs the Bills sneak in as the #20 seed. I would like too see a pic then.
RevWarRifleman Posted September 13, 2016 Posted September 13, 2016 "Burning Jerseys" wasn't that the name of that British campaign when they were chasing Washington in the Rev War?
The Real Buffalo Joe Posted September 13, 2016 Author Posted September 13, 2016 I threw away a perfectly decent Flutie jersey. The only jersey I've ever tossed. And I have not a shred of regret. You could have changed the name plate and made it a JP Losman jersey.
Chandler#81 Posted September 13, 2016 Posted September 13, 2016 I've helped burn a few bras. Do they count?
OP Class75 Posted September 13, 2016 Posted September 13, 2016 I threw away a perfectly decent Flutie jersey. The only jersey I've ever tossed. And I have not a shred of regret. I guess you wouldn't be interested in my unopened box of Flutie Flakes...
Hapless Bills Fan Posted September 13, 2016 Posted September 13, 2016 No. But this offseason I repurposed an old throwback Trent Edwards to a Tyrod. It looks really sweet but if Tyrod flames out this year, that jersey just might too. Billsnut, WTF? Quit that right now! You need to take Tyrod's name off that, soak the name in a purifying bath of alcohol, bury the jersey in the back yard with two potatoes, and burn a bunch of sage in your LR and BR to purify the house. If he flames out, we're all holding you responsible.
