Listen man everybody has opinions. There's about 40 50,000 people that love those lots 

 

And I'm not going to judge them or call them immature or less than a Bill's fan as any of us

 

In fact bar stool and a lot of documentaries have gone through those lots and made videos about bills Mafia that went all over the country..  I don't think you could look at some of the shenanigans and table jumping and then just flat out judge them... If you walked through those lots you would find families, friends, generations of Bills fans, connections made forever, all because of the Buffalo Bills

 

I choose to look at things with the glass half full 

 

In fact back in the day the rock pile was a crazy party.. the fans used to bring keggers into the stands.. Bills fans have always been wild

 

There's just the internet now to let it all out

 

And OP did say his fiance wanted to go through a table

 

 

I agree. I unfortunately have never attended Hammer's Lot, but when there we went from tailgate to tailgate to tailgate.....each one and every area everyone was very nice and welcoming...was invited to get in a hut tub also where some guy dressed like Santa and others were in lol. I personally don't think it matters much which ones you go to or how many you attend, from my experience everyone and all ones I did/have done were great.

It blows my mind the hate against ranch.  I use ranch more than any other condiment combined.  Fries, baked potatoes, carrots, wings, pizza, bread sticks, cheese sticks etc....it all gets ranch.

i don't think anyone has a problem with ranch.  you just use it like an #######.

Of course 

 

What it really boils down to is some crowds think all that partying is disrespectful.. but I could tell you that the rock pile was a massive crazy party 

 

And everybody is there because the Buffalo Bills.. and it creates a massive family 

 

When you look at it like this.. 40,000 people bonding over the same interest.. magical

Yup, every where we went we were offered food, alcohol etc. And yes very much like a huge family type environment.

Are you talking Bills fans all over the world? Or like possible super bowl parade numbers? 

 

All over the world absolutely more than 3.5 million fans... 

 

I think the bills could literally draw 1 million plus to a victory parade..

This is the largest gathering of people ever recorded.  Cubs World Series parade is 7th.  Rod F'ing Stewart is 9th....Rod Stewart.  That just blows my mind.

Bills Mafia is basically a ranch hate group that happens to have a football team in common.  It should be renamed bleu cheese mafia.  You should know better than to troll about ranch and boneless wings by now.

Anyone going to their 1st Bills game has to go to Hammer's to see Ken Johnson (AKA Pinto Ron) get a ketchup & mustard bath.  You might also get a bowling ball shot if you're into that stuff.

Go to the Red Coach Inn on the American side, its the location of the wedding that Jim and Pam did. (35 Buffalo ave. across from the rapids) I have been there before, the food is (or was) great! Good luck!
