aristocrat Posted July 29, 2021 Posted July 29, 2021 So I’ve done a bit of traveling this year and have run into bills fans all across the country. The funny part is always the timing of it. I was in a wal mart in Roswell and saw a guy with a bills hat who was from there and never saw them play but loved the Kelly era. I was just in Yosemite and as I’m walking away from the lower falls see a guy head to toe in gear so i say go bills and we start talking. From San Bernardino and hasn’t seen Rich. He had the flag and was taking pics at the peaks. New Orleans, Austin, San Angelo, Phoenix, Zion national park a guy from Syracuse parked 3 spots down from our rv, Reno a bunch of bills fans and one crazy Sabres fan. it’s always mind blowing cause if you literally take one second extra you don’t run into that person.

RaoulDuke79 Posted July 29, 2021 Posted July 29, 2021 I wear my Bills hat on every vacation we've been on. Got back from Florida last week where I met 2 separate Bills fans at Universal Studios and one at Discovery Cove. Longest distance from home base was Aruba where I met a retiree about 15 years ago.

Patrick Duffy Posted July 29, 2021 Posted July 29, 2021 Orchard Park and Buffalo area have ran into a few. Quote
Saxum Posted July 29, 2021 Posted July 29, 2021 I encountered one in Hong Kong last time I was there pre-COVID. Quote

US Egg Posted July 29, 2021 Posted July 29, 2021 After a game at the intersection of Abbott and Willett/Reserve. No one hurt, cars were drivable, exchanged info, neither asked if either were drinking, got out of there ASAP. 2 2 Quote
Marv's Neighbor Posted July 29, 2021 Posted July 29, 2021 Paris, Budapest, Florence, Milan, Cologne, Lucerne. My problem has been getting a score(s), during the season, if out of the country. Quote
LewPort71 Posted July 29, 2021 Posted July 29, 2021 2 of my new neighbors are Bills fans. They are both younger and were drawn to the Bills during the Super Bowl years and Darryl Talley of WVU fame. I have also met several Bills fans on the multiple cruises Mrs. Lew and I have taken to the Caribbean. Quote
Rockpile233 Posted July 29, 2021 Posted July 29, 2021 Wife and went to Hawaii 5 years ago. I pulled over at a banana bread stand outside Hana in Maui and the couple in front of us was from South Buffalo and immediately lit up when they saw my hat. Definitely wasn’t expecting that. Quote
LeGOATski Posted July 29, 2021 Posted July 29, 2021 I always get a "Go Bills!" while on vacation, no matter where we go. Pretty sure I could vacation in Antarctica and would still get a "Go Bills!" 3 Quote
Just Jack Posted July 30, 2021 Posted July 30, 2021 Several years ago, I didn't meet them though. I was doing some work at a Wendy's, somewhere in the western US, I forgot exactly where. On the bulletin board in their back office was a memo from the franchise home office, with just general info, promo's coming up, etc. The end of the memo there was written a few lines about Ralph Wilson passing on. I asked one of the managers about it. They told me the person that writes those memos is a huge Bills fan and they're always putting something about the Bills in them. Quote
Augie Posted July 30, 2021 Posted July 30, 2021 I had lunch in Boone, NC yesterday wearing a somewhat obscure Bills shirt, the blue one with the red bull on the front. Passing thru the parking lot with my amazing wife, an adorable young college girl younger than my sons gave me a hearty “GO BILLS” as she got into her car. Yes, I wanted to follow her. Pray for me.

Shamrock Posted July 31, 2021 Posted July 31, 2021 Sovereign Hill, Ballarat- coming out of the mine, guy from Syracuse. I have no tshirts other than Bills tees so was easy to spot! Quote
NCDAWG Posted August 18, 2021 Posted August 18, 2021 In Charlotte, everywhere. CVS, I-77, drive to work....everywhere. Amazing. Quote

Patrick Duffy Posted August 18, 2021 Posted August 18, 2021 Here in N.C there are some here and there I come across. I did end up meeting @Juice_32 early this year and found out we only live 20 mins from each other. Was pretty cool to actually meet a fellow board member in person. First one for me... Quote
ChevyVanMiller Posted August 19, 2021 Posted August 19, 2021 Not exactly what you asked, but I was watching something called the World Chase Championship (I’m not making that up) last week on ESPN 2. It was in Akron, OH. It’s sort of an elaborate, timed, game of tag where one player runs on tables and platforms and tries to avoid the other team’s chasing player. As they were nearing commercial they panned to the audience and this guy represented for Bills Mafia. I had to freeze the frame and take his photo. Quote
