BillsfanAZ Posted July 23, 2019 Posted July 23, 2019 My house is Bills territory no matter where I live.....unless my wife sees this then it is half Bills and half 49ers territory. 1
Buffalo ill Posted July 23, 2019 Posted July 23, 2019 Idaho, basically Seahawks country. As a young lad in the 80s, I didn't really have a team. I saw a Bills logo on a tv guide, and thought it was cool. Thus, I decided to become a Bills fan. That was the "Bickering Bills" season.
Nick the Greek Posted July 24, 2019 Posted July 24, 2019 20 hours ago, MichaelAbdallah said: It should be, but I don't think it is right now. A decade's worth of playoff competitiveness under Beane, McDermott, and Allen should change that. Ideally what would constitute "geographic Bills territory" would be every county in NY state north of Rockland and Westchester, as well as the Golden Horseshoe of Canada. When I say "ideal" Bills territory, I'm referring as much to cultural and socioeconomic similarities with Buffalo as I am with geographic proximity (yes, I realize that many of you will take issue with the Hudson Valley ever being considered Bills territory). It's a bit of a tragedy that the utter incompetence of this organization during the 21st century has meant that the Patriots, Giants, and Steelers have taken over large swaths of what should have otherwise been our young coming-of-age fanbase. I call it a tragedy because it affects things like stadium funding and the long-term viability of the franchise in Buffalo post-Pegulas (which may very well be many decades away). Also, a bunch of Cuse morons jumped on the Philly bandwagon when they drafted Orangeman Donovan McNabb. This always irritated me. That said, Syracuse NY is BILLS country!! And it always will be.
jpschwartz Posted July 24, 2019 Posted July 24, 2019 (edited) I’m from Southern Buffalo, more precisely Mexico City. Just 7hr away, by plane. Edited July 24, 2019 by jpschwartz 1
kkim0904 Posted July 24, 2019 Posted July 24, 2019 Lived in buffalo during my childhood in 80s and 90s after immigrated from Korea. Now, i live in Long Island NY. My two boys born in NYC are now BILLS fan. It was two years ago my older son who is teenager finally gave up his OBJ Giant. It took a lot of patience and perseverance,, and money. I cant wait to go back to attend the home against patriots.

North Buffalo Posted July 24, 2019 Posted July 24, 2019 (edited) Pay is close, benefits and health coverage unsure of. Just looked it up. Does FLA protect pre-existing conditions?

BigDingus Posted July 24, 2019 Posted July 24, 2019 I live in West Texas, but shockingly there's like 3 other people I met in this 300k person town that like the Bills... not counting the 3 or 4 I've converted myself.

Mostly cowboy fans here, mixed in with some Texan and Saint fans. I have come across a stray Bills fan every now and then. It's a struggle in my house, my wife and her side of the family are all big time cowboy fans Like most here, I grew up in the Buffalo area (Kenmore/Town of Tonawanda) but lived for about 5 years in Dallas in the early 80's. In 1984 the 0-11 Bills were playing the mighty Cowboys. I proudly wore my Bills shirt to the down home country boy breakfast joint, and got a lot of stares, some chuckles. Oh what a joyous day when we won, against all odds! Living in Atlanta area the last 29 years but will always be a Bills fan!

MY dream is to get back and have at least a part time place in Sarasota. Lived there 18 years and LOVED it! Gone almost 10 years now. Still get back about once a year. Plenty of Bills fans there!

Now I did remember you living in the Dallas Fort Worth area but I didn't know about the Granbury part. Man you'd be blown away with how it's grown!! 1

With FL being a red state the ACA wasn't adhered too as much as it was in NY. A fair question indeed. I am going to have to go back into the workplace soon specifically due to health care. I got aways to go before I can do the Medicare shuffle..... 1

Ya I am living the dream in Paradise here. I live right over by the Sarasota airport. 15 minutes from the beach, 6 minutes from the front door of the airport, 45 mins from St. Pete, now thats a fun place, plenty of microbreweries around me. A few Bills backers bars.....only thing missing is honest to god authentic Buffalo Wings. found some places that are OK but everyone seems intent on making the latest greatest "flavor" for their wings. No one does it like Anchor. Good luck on your dream!!!
Iron Maiden Posted July 26, 2019 Posted July 26, 2019 I'm dead smack into Seahawks country....I'm sure there's other Bills fans in Washington State, but they are far and few between....that's ok .....I'm proud to carry the flag !!
CLTbills Posted July 26, 2019 Posted July 26, 2019 No, but I do live in Bills country South. Tons of Bills fans in the Charlotte area. Originally from CNY, actually more Giants/Jets country than Bills.

Worth a shot for your wing fix. 1
Haslett_Stomp Posted July 26, 2019 Posted July 26, 2019 Raised in OP, now live outside Hartford, CT. Prime Pats*** and "G-Men" territory. Nobody cares about the other NJ team.
WhoTom Posted July 26, 2019 Posted July 26, 2019 Born and raised in Bills territory. Moved away back in '89 due to a career change, but still get back there once a year or so to visit family.
