CowgirlsFan Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 EXACTLY! The Bills are the ONLY team in NY! 1
Augie Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 Just booked my room near Vandy in Nashville. Easy to walk to places, short Uber into town or the Gulch. Cheaper (and smarter!) than driving downtown and parking. 1

Augie Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 Just now, JM57 said: My group is also staying near the Vandy campus. It was considerably cheaper than anything directly downtown Absolutely! Despite several big, beautiful new hotels opening, downtown is still VERY pricey. Near Vandy has plenty of cool places to eat and drink that you can walk to. Uber is only $10-15 into town as long as you don’t get surge pricing. Downtown parking is often around $12 for just the first hour. What a deal! Down around Broadway is cool for a while, but I prefer some of the surrounding areas unless you crave just the country music scene. Nashville is so much more. I really like that town. Try the Gulch and 12 South and some of the other cool areas. My wife will be there during draft weekend (for a funeral, unfortunately), and she said the decent places were around $500/night! I hear they are expecting around 100k people.
BillsPride12 Posted April 21, 2019 Posted April 21, 2019 Our group was really looking forward to doing Nashville this year but due to scheduling conflicts that one won't work out so we are going to do Pittsburgh instead(I'm just praying the Bills aren't out of the playoff race by then).

No your going to New Jersey! Depends where they’re flying into or staying, I suppose. In other words, the same scam the Jests and Giants have been pulling on the rest of us for years. Let’s just hope Andrew Cuomo doesn’t demand the Bills be rebranded the ‘New York Bills’, since they are New York State’s only NFL team.

I think they were called state university of New York at Buffalo! 1
LabattBlue Posted April 21, 2019 Posted April 21, 2019 Anyone have luck with a decent airfare from Buffalo to Nashville. Prices seem to be crazy, and the alternative is an 11 hour drive. Really want to attend, but not looking to break the bank, or take a long drive for a 3 or 4 day trip.
CowgirlsFan Posted April 21, 2019 Posted April 21, 2019 How would driving to Cleveland and flying from there OR driving to Pittsburgh and flying from there?
GG Posted April 21, 2019 Posted April 21, 2019 Technically for me the games in NJ are home games. Will try to make both.
Jukester Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 I'll be in Nashville. What's the best strategy on getting tickets? Do you guys usually buy early (Titans have single game tickets available in the upper deck as someone mentioned above) or wait til closer to the date via the online broker sites hoping for price drops on lower bowl seats?

No direct flights so that blows. That' why we changed the trip to Cleveland instead

Still under $400 out of Rochester, one-connection - doesn't seem to bad.

Info for others for game weekend 10/5-7. I found a nice Airbnb private apt for 2 near Vandy for game weekend at $199/nite.

That’s a great location, BTW. Non-surge Uber pricing is only about $10 into town, cheaper than parking. There are also plenty of bars and restaurants within an easy walk. I’m staying at one of the Hampton Inn’s there and paid more than that for a hotel room.

MiltonWaddams Posted May 1, 2019 Posted May 1, 2019 Nashville. Just got tickets at face value from a ST holder. Looking forward to meeting some of you for a good pre-game!
