Does anyone remember exactly where they were at home, at the game, at a restaurant or traveling somewhere when the greatest comeback in NFL history happened when Buffalo beat Houston?

Sure do.  The game was blacked out, so back then, being from Webster, if we drove out of the blackout radius, which was literally 10 minutes in Ontario, we got the game at my cousin's.  I was 12 y/o

I was employed as a DJ at Club Diamond Dust on SW corner of Genesee & Transit (now called Buffalo Scores) and decided to go to the game after it was blacked out.  I went with my dad, one of the dancers from the club named Cheri (who was friends with Jeff Wright; he went to the club quite often), and her 12 yr old nephew.  We almost left the game after the 3rd quarter pick-6 by Houston but decided to stay because by the time Cheri came back from her trip to the bathroom at halftime, we had just scored our second TD.  What a f-ing game!  Plus, we were sitting near the corner on the scoreboard end, visitor's side, where most of the action was happening.

My shifts were 12am to 12pm back then.

 

The game was blacked out so when I got home on went the radio and I reclined in my lazy boy to listen

 

It was funny because even after FR threw the pick 6  to start the second half I billieved they could still win and started doing the math. :)

Listened to Van Miller call it on the radio.

 

Houston stupidly kept with a hurry-up O throwing the ball instead of killing 40 seconds with running the ball on occasion.

Sitting in a bar with wife and sister-in law watcing other games on TV because of the freaking blackout rules. 

 

My brother-in-law was at the game, left early then had to beg to be let back in.

 

The following night, maybe Tuesday someone brought a VCR Tape (remember those things) to a bar on Ridge Road near Seneca.  The place was packed with Bills fans the the place was WILD.

If you were a Bills fan and old enough to remember that game you know exactly where you were, who you were with and what you were doing.
