BuffaloWings Posted January 3, 2018 Posted January 3, 2018 This was back in the day when I recorded every Bills playoff game on my VCR. I stopped recording at halftime, but my sister convinced me to keep recording...just in case.
Homey D. Clown Posted January 3, 2018 Posted January 3, 2018 (edited) I was eating wings at Duffs on sheridan and millersport at halftime thru the end of the game. We initially went to a bar on Hertel that was showing it. We left thinking the game was all but over. Edited January 3, 2018 by Homey D. Clown
Freddie's Dead Posted January 3, 2018 Posted January 3, 2018 Since the game was blacked out locally, I went to my sister's in Syracuse to watch the game. I'll never forget it. My favorite play was the 4th and 3 TD to Andre over the middle. My brother-in-law and I both thought it was the ballsiest call Marvcus ever made. Huevos. 1

Especially so, if it DIDN’T work, I don’t think we win.
John in Jax Posted January 3, 2018 Posted January 3, 2018 Had just got off active duty in the USAF. Last duty station was at Yokota AB in Japan. We had just arrived back in country, and THAT weekend, we were moving into a small apartment in Las Vegas, NV. We had not received our household goods yet, so the apt. was very sparse, but I somehow had a small 12" color tv. I blew off church to stay back at the apt to watch the game, as my wife and two young girls went to the services. I could not believe what I saw! LMAO

I stopped recording at halftime, but my sister convinced me to keep recording...just in case. I used to do the same. Except for this one I also stopped at the half and didn't start it up again. Someplace I have VHS tapes with every Superbowl area playoff game, and one with nfl primetime and any other highlite of that game I could find
Buddy Hix Posted January 3, 2018 Posted January 3, 2018 All this nostalgic talk about the drought and now the comeback are really making me feel old....25 years!
CSBill Posted January 3, 2018 Posted January 3, 2018 Before Sunday, I think that was the last time I cried at the results of a football game--tears of joy, of course.
Ned Flanders Posted January 3, 2018 Posted January 3, 2018 I remember some of the bars in Rochester were showing the replay via VHS to big crowds. Great time to be a Bills fan in WNY...it's on the way back!
dollars 2 donuts Posted January 3, 2018 Posted January 3, 2018 I always back up my claim that I was there the same way: I was in a box. I had pizza, booze, wings, peanuts, cheese, crackers, dessert and a comfortable chair with a good view...I was also fat then...why in the world would I leave?
Buffalo_Gal Posted January 3, 2018 Posted January 3, 2018 (edited) There was a bar inside the fitness club (or next to it) on Elmwood where Home Depot now stands. They had the game on (even though it was blacked out locally). We got wind of it (it was on the "QT" because the Bills were not happy with people showing blacked out games locally). I went with my ex-husband and my sister's BF at the time. The place was packed (so much for quiet), but we arrived early enough that I snagged us a booth. They both wanted to leave at the half, but I refused. I told them to go home because I was watching to the bitter end. Well, they didn't want to leave me in a packed bar by myself, so we all stayed. Needless to say, they were happy I insisted we remain. My ex-BIL and his brother were at the game. They were two of the people trying to get back in after leaving early.

Patrick Duffy Posted January 4, 2018 Posted January 4, 2018 Remember it as if it were yesterday. Another game that will never be forgotten.

Don't make it or kick the FG? We lose. I think it was the play of the game. Edited January 4, 2018 by Freddie's Dead
Another Fan Posted January 4, 2018 Posted January 4, 2018 (edited) Christies recovery of his own onside kick was the turning point of that game imo Edited January 4, 2018 by Another Fan
