It’s it a sponsored tent?  I was in one today and it was free food and non alcoholic drinks.  My brother was in his last year and they had booze, and everyone got a Diggs signed mini ball.  

Bills tent for club members. Idk. I know in the past they’ve have some sponsored vendor tents before but I think this is just set up for club members and that’s all.

Anyone been to training camp and been in the hospitality tent? Have tickets for it tomorrow. Never been inside the tent. Have no idea what it includes or if it’s even any better than general admission. Just looking for some input from someone that’s been there on what to expect. Only thing I can tho info is greater access to a few players post practice signing autographs that might not be available to GA. 
 

thanks in advance for the input. 

I'm going Sunday in the hospitality tent.  I couldn't find anything either.  Will be following this thread.

 

Any insight is appreciated.

 

Go Bills!

I was in it Wednesday. Free breakfast food, water soda coffee and Gatorade. Nice to have shade on a hot morning. Ran into players family that was cool. Shakirs wife and parents, Murray’s cousin, he’s from Rochester, and Trent sherfields brother. Although if you are going to actually watch practice the view can be not so great at times. Players standing on sidelines can block your view. 
 

You do get better access for autographs but good luck in there also. I don’t bother with autographs I want the kids to get them. My advice for that is there is a spot behind the stadium and you can get players there when they are going out to the field before practice starts and it’s not as crowded when the players are leaving the field after.

 Get there early if you got kids and want autographs definitely not as busy.

Oh, I already have one of those. I had a time where I bought jerseys of all the worst Bills QBs. I have my EJ and Flutie jerseys already autographed and framed. 

I’m 57 and having been going to games since I was 5. The first jersey I ever bought was EJ Manuel. So I am with you my friend. Buying crappy jerseys sucks. My next and only purchase was a Kelly jersey. I’m considering another one with this team.

I just got here. The assortment of coke from different South American countries is incredible. And the hookers, they aren’t just normal hookers. More like Rochester suburb escorts. 
 

I kid I kid. Just made it here. Haven’t made my way to the tent yet

Think of the tent as a little “summer dome”. Happy now?      😋

Overall a pretty cool experience. Was. I’ve having the shade of the tent. Was much cooler. Even thought I found a spot right in front in the sun I stayed there the whole time. But my wife appreciated the shade. 
 

we got a couple free items. A clear bills bag. A pair of water bottles. Other than that meh. They had snacks and breakfast sandwhich’s there for everyone. Coffee. Iced coffee. Plenty of cold drinks. Waters, multiple Gatorade flavors, juices, soda, etc. 

 

I managed to get a Poyer autograph on a mini helmet. Josh came right but not because I’m a grown adult (many would argue) he wasn’t having any of it. Looked to be signing only for the  kids. Got a Morris auto on the lanyard pass they gave us. Probably could have had Elam as he was right next to us for a few minutes but didn’t want to bother him. Besides, if he can’t beat out Dane Jackson or Benford what good is he anyway (jk). Hamlin stayed very late signing a ton of autographs. He was on the other side of the field so no chance there. 
 

Not my first camp at all but first time in the tent. Was pretty cool but not a very good view to watch the actual practice. Tough to see over all the people and players on the sideline for the most part. I’d do it again but maybe on a cooler day go over to the stands for a good portion of it to actually get a good view of practice. 
 

hope this helps anyone who’s wondering about the experience.

One year I went we got similar items.  Was talking to some suite holders, they got socks.

you wanna sell it?

 

 

Is it worth more or less if it has a bit of vomit on it?
