Is it unacceptable for me to stand there holding my homemade "Josh, marry me!" sign?

Ok we've hit a point where the airport thing has lost its uniqness and specialness. Fans were at the gate Sunday after they beat Miami and I am here to say ya'll gotta stop.

 

When they broke the drought, when they clinched the division, heck when they truly clinched the playoffs against PIT in 2019 I get going those days. Those were big important days which celebrations are worth. I myself would've went in 2020 had they beat Houston as winning your first playoff game in 20+ years also is one of those big moments.

 

But were at the point people are just going for the sake of going. Beating a team to get to 1-1 ruins the coolness that had been established prior. Some of you may say I am no fun, but to me things like greeting the team at the airport should be received for occasions that grant it. Truth be told now that the team has made progress I'd rather see this held back to winning the AFC title, then just a regular season win that really isn't special at all.

 

You mad, bro?

Can we just make it a thing? 

Bills win division - Go to airport

Bills win a home game - Go to airport.

Josh has over 300 yards passing - Go to airport.

Bills sign new punter - Go to airport.

My grandmother (God rest her soul) took me to the airport in 1990's to watch the planes take off.  It just so happens the Bills were arriving and a huge group of fans gathered to wish them well.  The crowds were so huge that my petite Gram Gram was trampled by three guys clamoring for a Jim Kelly autograph.  One of these bruisers wore a tattoo that said "Vinny Hart Ivy" (an obvious mistake by the guy that inked his arm, but unique nonetheless.)  As I watched my Gram Gram lay in a pool of Budweiser on the tile floor, she winked at me and said "Find that bastard".  Don't ever tell me what to do...my search continues.  He'll show up sooner or later and then it's curtains for Vinny.

According to a popular movie, he may go by the alias "Rollo Tomasi".  Could be an obfuscation of Tony Romo ... hope this helps.

They had it on WGRZ this morning... (via YouTube). They showed some of the crowd but the onsite reporter said "About 50 fans".

That story took an unexpected twist!  Thought it was going to be a sweet soul warming antedote, but it quickly turned to violence.  Did NOT see that coming.

It's a well-known fact that 85% of stories people tell about their grandmothers end in violence.

You won't need to go to the airport if you're flying Southwest, unless you're already stranded there. In which case, go on out and greet the Bills!

Some people have way too much time on their hands

[John from Riverside]

Honestly I understand fans showing up at the airport for this game......

 

This was the team that ended our magical season last year....they went and avenged that loss........

What's the Buffalo airport like? Flying from DFW there for the Colts game. Never have been to Buffalo (and a fan since 1988!).

It’s good.  Small, no need for getting on a tram to transfer to another terminal or anything like that.  Security lines move quick there, in my experience.
