Bills fan since 87 Posted May 18, 2021 Posted May 18, 2021 (edited) Trying something new for the Monday Nighter. Actually renting a dump of a room down the road in Hamburg and staying over. For the first time ever I wont be tailgating (unless I went solo). Pregame will be walking around the lots showing a first timer what the Mafia is. Post game I am sure he is going to want to go inside to finish off the night, if the bars are open until 2 then as we'll get out of the stadium close to midnight. Are the Big Tree and the larger place at the far end usually hopping post game, or is it filtered out due to the go home right away people and post game tailgaters? It would be nice to just close out the eve with the last dwindling Bills fans. Having just beaten the Patriots on Monday Night Football to clinch the AFC East:) Edited May 18, 2021 by Bills fan since 87

Ohhh, that could be dangerous if so. We have no intent of going to Chippewa or downtown. We've done that scene for concerts anyway... Hotel s in Hamburg. Any decent town bars there off hand?
machine gun kelly Posted May 18, 2021 Posted May 18, 2021 I’m going back a bit 87, but yep they are open until 4 am. As Jimmy Buffet once sang, there is a fine line between Saturday night and Sunday morning. Big Tree is fun always, but you’re missing out if you don’t check out Hammers which is diagonal to the Big Tree at least around 10:30 am, as it gets fun around that time. There are a few other places in Hamburg, not too far of an Uber away. As a,ways and I’m sure you would anyway, just Uber the night. People are good folks there and why bother with the cops or worse get hurt. you’ll have fun and honestly, you just need to talk to some people who you like and they’ll tell you what’s fun around there. Nothing wrong with a couple of pops before as they don’t serve after halftime so you have an hour and a half to throw back a 5 hr., not that I’ve ever participated.
4_kidd_4 Posted May 18, 2021 Posted May 18, 2021 Bars in Erie Co. are still open til 4am. In my prime, we didn’t leave the house til at least 11 to go out. That’s all I got here. 4

transient Posted May 19, 2021 Posted May 19, 2021 Last call is 4, but that doesn’t mean all bars are open until 4, especially in Hamburg in a Monday. Been a long time, but I used to catch up with friends at JP Fitzgerald’s on Clark St… based on a quick Google looks like it’s still a thing… it was a’ight. 1

Buffalo716 Posted May 19, 2021 Posted May 19, 2021 Because of king cuomo mist bars in NYS close at 12 midnight now
Old Coot Posted May 19, 2021 Posted May 19, 2021 Big Tree Inn is right near the stadium. When I lived in Buffalo (decades ago) you could occasionally run into a Bills player after the game.

Oh I know Hammers sir, prob tailgated there 75-100 times. Will take him through. But, post game is my aim! Stadium bars or hamburg bars seems to be the new dilemma. 1

We've done that scene for concerts anyway... Hotel s in Hamburg. Any decent town bars there off hand? Last trip there a couple years ago I was very pleasantly surprised by what looked like a nice little bar scene in Hamburg. Maybe mostly lunch joints, hard to know for sure. I just went for a lunch since that is where the first homes I remember are located. They had some nice patio seating at a few venues and a quaint setting. I didn’t stay to enjoy late night, but it looked like it had nice options. Good luck finding the right setting. I’ll probably stay in Williamsville where I mostly grew up and usually stay. Not far away and I KNOW they have a nice little bar scene there. 1

Never said they were, so you tell me. But bars, with football games on or not, in my experience can be loud. All I was saying is it seemed the Big Tree cleared out considerably during games.

And then immediately went outside for a cigarette because it was a sardine can.
