CLTbills Posted September 3, 2019 Posted September 3, 2019 Normally home... But we'll be in Disney now for the opener (Thanks, Hurricane Dorian) so I'll be walking through the park with my bluetooth headphones on listening to Murph and Eric Wood on the radio broadcast.
notwoz Posted September 3, 2019 Posted September 3, 2019 I used to go to a local Bills bar in Herndon, Va. But I got tired of the drunks, so now I'm content to watch from the comfort of my recliner.

If you were ever there from 2010-2015 or so, I was probably one of those drunks ? 1
BuffaloHokie13 Posted September 3, 2019 Posted September 3, 2019 Echoing many before me, home is the best if it's an option. If not I hit the DC Bills backers bar, which is now Bar Deco in Chinatown. Menu looks interesting, sad there's no beef on deck but if the wings are better than the last place I'll take it

Golden*Wheels Posted September 3, 2019 Posted September 3, 2019 Basement 120inch+ screen also no one can hear my plaintive wails
row_33 Posted September 3, 2019 Posted September 3, 2019 on the couch, with the game PVR'd and i fast forward through all the replays and nonsense and play when they QB gets to the line for the next snap
BillnutinHouston Posted September 3, 2019 Posted September 3, 2019 Ever since moving to Pittsburgh I'm at New Era for all the home games. When they're on the road, I watch at home with family. I do not need atmosphere, friends, food or drink.
uticaclub Posted September 3, 2019 Posted September 3, 2019 I can’t watch a game alone, I have to go to local Bills bar in whatever city I’m in. I need to be around other people going through what I’m going through on game days. 1

Well, while I can't speak to the atmosphere at home, I assume you have plenty of food and drink available. No? And if you don't have friends, you have family, right? Home is a perfect spot for game watching (if it's on the tube).
HT02 Posted September 3, 2019 Posted September 3, 2019 Home but third is the Boston Bills Backer bar.. The Harp

Being a transplant I’ve met some of my best friends at the bar on Sundays. Also, there’s a DJ that plays classic rock instead of retirement ads

But when you are in a bar, you need breaks to go to the bathroom, get another drink, etc.

Also, there’s a DJ that plays classic rock instead of retirement ads i didn't mind, but people i went with to the game would complain ENDLESSLY about commercial breaks and then the replay delays, almost harshed my mellow considering there's about 12 minutes of post-snap actual action in the game, it's not much for the 3.5 hours you are at the game (takes about an hour to watch a tape of the game)
AlCowlingsTaxiService Posted September 3, 2019 Posted September 3, 2019 I have seasons and attend one roadie a season, and while I do enjoy the camaraderie of friends and liquid hops, my recliner in front of my 4k is really hard to beat from a viewing and budgetary standpoint on away Sundays 1

Golden*Wheels Posted September 3, 2019 Posted September 3, 2019 How about this one....if you can't watch the game live, even just a bit of the beginning....do you RECORD it? My buddy does this with football and I am like bro....either the game is still on and you just watch it as soon as you can, or the game is over and you just check the score. I may be an idiot for yelling at my own tv (yes honey, I know they can't hear me) but I'd feel doubly idiotic getting emotional over ***** that already happened. I can't stand recorded sports. Live or GTFO. Gotta have the tension.
