Can’t believe how many fans are there 

 

 

That is pretty much the same video I took as well. I am not kidding when I say that parade went on for a good 15 minutes which must have been over 5k fans just in that street alone.

Great time so far.  We made it down to the parade at Ryan's pretty much immediately after checking in and dumping our luggage.  I figured this was just going to be a bunch of fans milling around, but marching through the French Quarter with a band and police escort was really cool.

 

They needed like four times the bar staff, but it was the middle of the afternoon on a Wednesday so let's cut everybody some slack I guess.

 

Now we just need to kill a few hours before going out for Thanksgiving, and do our 1/11th to get this nonsense sorted out.

Having a great time here in Nola.  Have enjoyed talking w Saints fans. Had a couple beers w a 45 year old guy who said 90’s Bills were his favorite except for Saints.   He talked in depth about everyone from Kent Hull to Carwell Gardner.

 

Also sat w 2 long time bartenders who told me no one travels like Buffalo, except Wisconsin.  They said Packers and Badgers might have us beat in crowd size and alcohol consumption. Also said Bills and Packers are good tippers.

 

They don’t like fans from Chicago or Boston.  Too obnoxious

Have fun!

 

My GF made me realize the "no mask" aspect of the crowd, the simple normality of it all. So good to see people celebrating, having wholesome fun, in groups, free, bonding, being... humans ha ha.

 

A victory to top this off is what I wish you ;) and all of us!

Yeah I haven't been in a bar that packed since college (I'm 49).  Not a mask to be seen.  Enjoying my triple-dose of Moderna.

Thanks for all these reports. So great to see.  

 

I take one road trip a year.  Will nnnbnn have been NO on any day other than Thanksgiving.  Went to KC instead.  

 

Bring home a big win!

I'm connecting in Newark on my way to other places.  When I left Dulles, it was packed with Bills fans and the TSA guy at the checkpoint told me I was one of MANY Bills fans he's seen in the past few days (I'm wearing a Bills hoodie).  I also ran into a NO native on the shuttle to my gate, who told me, "you're going to kill us.  And our city is FILLED with Bills fans right now."

Are Bills bars not filled with big crowds of Bills fans?

Will be back to traveling to every game next year. I was planning on it this year. But too many things in life going on. So only going to Buffalo for the Home games. Will be back traveling to all games next year. After our Move is all complete and settled in.
