Her birthday is sunday the Jan 5th. Can I go to WC weekend with my buddy and leave moms with my wife? ??♂️ she’s 73 and doesn’t get around very well and has no interest in going to Houston. My wife is great about me going to games without her (she’s from Portland) but leaving her with my mom is rough. And on my moms bday. Fml Expand Yeah, but one day your Mom won’t be around and you won’t have the option. Stay at home, enjoy the family time, watch it on tv. Just go to the Divisional round game the next week when the Bills move on with the win during wild card weekend. 1

That’s what I’ll be doing. 1 1

I see it's 73% chance we are @ Houston and I have been researching. Very tempted to buy a few tickets to Houston's 1st playoff game and take the chance. I think worst case is if we don't play them, and you can just sell the tix and make a profit. Prices will only go up from here as the matchups are confirmed! Anyone else debating? Any input or advice?? Definitely not flying to HOU as it's at like $660 per person for a flight. Would do RV style if I go. Let me know what y'all are doing?! Expand if you are local to the WNY region, flying out of Cleveland or Pittsburgh is a couple of hundred cheaper. 1
Chandemonium Posted December 20, 2019 Posted December 20, 2019 I don’t think I can swing a playoff game trip this year, although if Tennessee wins the division that would be close enough for me to drive to from SC. I went to Jacksonville and everything about the experience was awesome except the result. 1
DJB Posted December 20, 2019 Posted December 20, 2019 Anyone know if we are going to be the Saturday or Sunday game?

If it is affordable, I'd consider it. Expand Gonna buy it tomorrow to take advantage of the 24 hour refund thing. Figure if we lose tomorrow, we’re pretty much locked in to Houston. If we win, I cancel the flight and get my money back. Don’t know the exact plan for the actual flight but I promise it’ll be cheaper now than it will be once it’s official. I flew to Jacksonville a couple years ago for the game and during the 10 minutes after we clinched it, the flight prices literally tripled.
CajunBillsBacker Posted December 20, 2019 Posted December 20, 2019 Houston is a short 5 hours from me so I’ll definitely be there if the Bills are there. I booked a hotel about a week ago and bought a ticket to the game yesterday. I’d be more than happy to cancel if the Bills somehow win the division, but otherwise I’m ready for Houston. 1
MDH Posted December 20, 2019 Posted December 20, 2019 I bought tix to Hou and have hotel reservations both Friday and Saturday (cancellable) but Im holding off on airlines until its official.
Dougy84 Posted December 21, 2019 Author Posted December 21, 2019 We are heavily debating (I might add not so much me!) on wether to just buy tix and take the risk or sell later, but I see it as a win win. We would be RV'ing from Buffalo, which is like a 23 hour drive but much better in an RV than a car/truck. This is like a bucket list, or it can be for my ten year anniversary (in 3 yrs ?) I don't really care! I just want to see a Bills playoff game in person! I'm 34 so it hasn't happened much, that I can truly appreciate
Dougy84 Posted December 21, 2019 Author Posted December 21, 2019 (edited) Also here is a good site for likely matchups! http://www.playoffstatus.com/nfl/billsstandings.html Does anyone know how the % swings, strictly based on just us beating NE. No other games taken into account? I'd think it would lessen the 73% @ Houston but what do I know! Edited December 21, 2019 by Dougy84
PromoTheRobot Posted December 21, 2019 Posted December 21, 2019 (edited) I bought a single seat before realizing I can't go. So PM me if you want 1 seat in a decent section: 637 row D. I also suggest using Priceline to put together a flight/hotel/car package. Edited December 21, 2019 by PromoTheRobot
