greenyellowred Posted September 22, 2018 Posted September 22, 2018 I am visiting Binghamton today from California. I see tons of Pittsburgh, Giants, Jets, and New England hats and jersey, even a Denver one, but no Bills paraphernalia. This ws both in an area Wegmans in Horseheads and at a festival at NYSEG Stadium in Binghamton. What gives? I am not happy. Why would anyone support those loser teams? [Sorry I can’ post more pics, but I am on my phone.] More pics:
Juice_32 Posted September 22, 2018 Posted September 22, 2018 I've got family there and they are Bills season ticket holders but it does seem to be a mixed bag of fans.
RonMexico Posted September 22, 2018 Posted September 22, 2018 are you just taking pictures of people? thats a little odd man 3 7
NoSaint Posted September 22, 2018 Posted September 22, 2018 You should definitely continue to take pictures of people and post them online telling us how weird they are 2 11 2

Thanks. I thought Binghamton was solid Bills country. Just now, NoSaint said: Well, it seems you see some bills gear. Yes, but not enough.
Tommy Callahan Posted September 22, 2018 Posted September 22, 2018 (edited) is it that they didn't offer them, or the bills stuff was sold out.... Also, their is NO wegmans in horseheads.. just saying.. Edited September 22, 2018 by Chris farley 1

Still, kind of disrespectful for Wegmans to be sellng enemy apparel in Bills country. Edited September 22, 2018 by greenyellowred 1

Mike in Horseheads Posted September 22, 2018 Posted September 22, 2018 There is no Wegmans in Horseheads and were 60 miles from Binghamton. Target sells Bills stuff here along with several other stores. 2

Nelius Posted September 22, 2018 Posted September 22, 2018 This **** is weird. Don't just post photos of randoms on a message board, man... 1

For exposing the enemy? Elmira, where that Wegmans was, is closer to Buffalo than to either Pittsburgh or NY. These people are traitors.
Low Positive Posted September 22, 2018 Posted September 22, 2018 That part of NYS tends to be an extension of NYC in its sports fandom. Met Life is closer by an hour and the Giants used to have their training camp in Albany. This map is a bit old, but it gives you an idea of the limited geographical reach of Bills Mafia. https://www.google.com/amp/s/matadornetwork.com/read/mapped-where-to-find-fans-of-your-nfl-team-across-the-us/amp/ 1

The Bills start doing well and you will see more Bills gear out. One or two stores really is not a strong indicator especially now with the internet along with direct delivery. 1
