Hellcamino Posted January 4, 2020 Posted January 4, 2020 52 years old, married to the Bills for 46 of them and I've never even been to Buffalo. Thanks OJ. Born and raised in Peoria Illinois and moved to Los Angeles in 1991. When I was a bit younger and single I was an avid Bills collector. Had my two sons in early-mid 2000s and I lost my Bills room to them and so most of it got boxed up and stored. Through the drought I told my wife if the Bills ever made the playoffs again, I was gonna get it all out and decorate the living room and it was gonna stay till they got knocked out. She agreed to it because she follows football and had watched almost every game with me since Flutie and figured she had nothing to worry about. 2 years ago when it finally happened, I did it, although I didn't have access to many of the boxes at the time it was still cool to see some of that stuff again even if it only lasted a week. This time I was ready! hopefully it will get to stay out for a month this time! Most of it is from SB era of course. It was hard finding stuff in the 70's and 80's living in Peoria. Much of it is from many years of birthday and Christmas gifts. There are a hand full of rare and one of a kind items mixed in. The Last picture is my very favorite item. And it is legit. There's plenty more that I didn't put out, lots of jerseys, hoodies, t-shirts, about 75 hats, every issue of 'Shout' and my "real" collection, one of the most complete Bills football card collections from the early 60's through around 1999. Not bad for a diehard fan of 46 years whose never even been to Buffalo! enjoy! http://photobucket.com/confirmation?token=vkyoC1fCsgTcaVMlkiDqZYxY401XfqTL5DWfIR7ULMwTHTs6mM1tKYgQcyY08rVkSAvt3qh1WaR5fBLKfmGDEg3%2FUL6cLOKd http://photobucket.com/confirmation?token=vkyoC1fCsgTcaVMlkiDqZYxY401XfqTL5DWfIR7ULMwTHTs6mM1tKYgQcyY08rVkSAvt3qh1WaR5fBLKfmGDEg3%2FUL6cLOKd http://photobucket.com/confirmation?token=vkyoC1fCsgTcaVMlkiDqZYxY401XfqTL5DWfIR7ULMwTHTs6mM1tKYgQcyY08rVkSAvt3qh1WaR5fBLKfmGDEg3%2FUL6cLOKd http://photobucket.com/confirmation?token=vkyoC1fCsgTcaVMlkiDqZYxY401XfqTL5DWfIR7ULMwTHTs6mM1tKYgQcyY08rVkSAvt3qh1WaR5fBLKfmGDEg3%2FUL6cLOKd http://photobucket.com/confirmation?token=vkyoC1fCsgTcaVMlkiDqZYxY401XfqTL5DWfIR7ULMwTHTs6mM1tKYgQcyY08rVkSAvt3qh1WaR5fBLKfmGDEg3%2FUL6cLOKd http://photobucket.com/confirmation?token=vkyoC1fCsgTcaVMlkiDqZYxY401XfqTL5DWfIR7ULMwTHTs6mM1tKYgQcyY08rVkSAvt3qh1WaR5fBLKfmGDEg3%2FUL6cLOKd http://photobucket.com/confirmation?token=vkyoC1fCsgTcaVMlkiDqZYxY401XfqTL5DWfIR7ULMwTHTs6mM1tKYgQcyY08rVkSAvt3qh1WaR5fBLKfmGDEg3%2FUL6cLOKd http://photobucket.com/confirmation?token=vkyoC1fCsgTcaVMlkiDqZYxY401XfqTL5DWfIR7ULMwTHTs6mM1tKYgQcyY08rVkSAvt3qh1WaR5fBLKfmGDEg3%2FUL6cLOKd http://photobucket.com/confirmation?token=vkyoC1fCsgTcaVMlkiDqZYxY401XfqTL5DWfIR7ULMwTHTs6mM1tKYgQcyY08rVkSAvt3qh1WaR5fBLKfmGDEg3%2FUL6cLOKd http://photobucket.com/confirmation?token=vkyoC1fCsgTcaVMlkiDqZYxY401XfqTL5DWfIR7ULMwTHTs6mM1tKYgQcyY08rVkSAvt3qh1WaR5fBLKfmGDEg3%2FUL6cLOKd http://photobucket.com/confirmation?token=vkyoC1fCsgTcaVMlkiDqZYxY401XfqTL5DWfIR7ULMwTHTs6mM1tKYgQcyY08rVkSAvt3qh1WaR5fBLKfmGDEg3%2FUL6cLOKd http://photobucket.com/confirmation?token=vkyoC1fCsgTcaVMlkiDqZYxY401XfqTL5DWfIR7ULMwTHTs6mM1tKYgQcyY08rVkSAvt3qh1WaR5fBLKfmGDEg3%2FUL6cLOKd http://photobucket.com/confirmation?token=vkyoC1fCsgTcaVMlkiDqZYxY401XfqTL5DWfIR7ULMwTHTs6mM1tKYgQcyY08rVkSAvt3qh1WaR5fBLKfmGDEg3%2FUL6cLOKd http://photobucket.com/confirmation?token=vkyoC1fCsgTcaVMlkiDqZYxY401XfqTL5DWfIR7ULMwTHTs6mM1tKYgQcyY08rVkSAvt3qh1WaR5fBLKfmGDEg3%2FUL6cLOKd http://photobucket.com/confirmation?token=vkyoC1fCsgTcaVMlkiDqZYxY401XfqTL5DWfIR7ULMwTHTs6mM1tKYgQcyY08rVkSAvt3qh1WaR5fBLKfmGDEg3%2FUL6cLOKd I'm not sure why the pictures aren't working.

TroutDog Posted January 4, 2020 Posted January 4, 2020 Not sure if you’re doing it wrong but you had me intrigued enough to click! Nada.
BillnutinHouston Posted January 4, 2020 Posted January 4, 2020 You get A's for dedication and effort, bro!

fansince88 Posted January 4, 2020 Posted January 4, 2020 If you dont have photobucket it doesnt work. Thst said, I cant see it but glad you are finally becoming the man of the house after all these years. 1
SinceThe70s Posted January 4, 2020 Posted January 4, 2020 LOL. Similar story on a smaller scale. I'm also an out of towner, but have been to Buffalo for three games (all wins). If you ever get a chance make the trip, you won't regret it. My box of Flutie Flakes (along with a few other Bills items) has been on display since the Steelers game.

I feel you on this one... 42 years old and been a fan since 1986. I have never stepped foot in the state of NY. My fandom started as my dad was a die-hard Steelers fan and I was talking trash during a Bills-Steelers game (just to poke the bear). Buffalo ended up winning the game, and since then, it has been all Bills all the way. With that being the background of my fan hood, good luck to the Bills and the diehard faithful who have waited a long time for this day to come back around. While they made it in 2017, it doesn't have the same feeling as this year. GO BILLS!!!!
