Especially on a weekday. Took off work Mon/Tues. Going to get to the stadium by 3:30 - 4:00. Lots open 5 hours before kickoff. Don't want to be on Rt 17 near rush hour. Traffic can be a pain in the ass then.

Combining rush hour and stadium traffic would not be fun.  Definitely want to beat the work traffic to the stadium!

Any extra tix for the game with the backers club?

Unfortunately none that I know of. Normally they are much easier to come by. Jets fans still have hope. Ha.

For those tailgating. It's still 5 days out but Monday's forecast for East Rutherford, NJ

It seems to be changing a little for the worse as the week goes on.  A few days ago the daytime forecast was for "brilliant sunshine"! At least the night forecast is still pretty nice.  Mid 60s and mostly clear.  Very little wind.

I’ll be there (at the tailgate at least). We are staying on the Upper West Side and driving in at like 2:15-3:00. Looking forward to it!!

Great!  I am Jon, the VP of the North Jersey Bills Backers.  I'll be the guy in the Kent Hull jersey (I assume there will not be many of those at the tailgate).  Looking forward to meeting a few of the forum members in person!

I've been seeing morning isolated storms and scattered in the afternoon.  The field might have some wetness but it seems that the rain will be gone by kick off.

I’ve met a bunch of them. It’s an underwhelming group 🙂.

Just the information I needed.

What tailgate does Pinto Ron show up to?

 

NJ and NYC Bills Backers should combine rather than be in two different lots.

NYC Backers changed their plans after most of us had already purchased gold parking passes and made plans for lot 26.  They are in a lot that does not accept gold parking passes.  (The passes are about $85 on ticketmaster!)  We were not aware of the change until a few days ago.  Unfortunately this year there will be 2 tailgates.  We will be running the same great tailgate that we have had in lot 26 for many years.  Hopefully we can all get back on the same page next year.  Go Bills!

I am taking my nieces to the game. They are Jets fans.

 

I will be watching the game from the parking lot as I refuse to go into a stadium with a bunch of drunk Jets fans.

Sometimes I can’t believe the season is here already. Sometimes it seems like that bengals game was a decade ago.

I've taken all this information down and hope to make the tailgate in lot 26.  Unfortunately I am attending with 5 others, 3 are Jets fans, 1 is a Giants fan and the other is a Panthers fan, though he says that the Bills are his second favorite and will be in Bills gear for the game.

 

I am so excited about going and can't wait to see the Bills beat up on the Jets this year.  I'll be in section 349, either row 14 or 15.

 

I'm coming from Rochester, NY so I won't have a dish to pass, but will be more than happy to contribute if I can make the tailgate.

[Mighty Taco]

I’m flying in from Los Angeles and can’t wait to be with all of my Bills brethren!

Hope you can make it to lot 26!  Go Bills!

In case anyone heard any rumors about the tailgate lot location changing, the Northern Jersey Bills Backers and all our friends will be in lot 26, as it has been for years. Your gold parking pass works for lot 26. Great food, plenty of drinks, and the best fans in the world!  We hope to see everyone that is in the area at the Sunday pre party at The Stone & Rail and on Monday night at the tailgate in lot 26!   Go Bills! 

This is amazing. Thank you so much! At what point do you think you will be heading to seats? I am flying into Newark for work (landing at 5:30pm) and decided last minute to get tix to game. Meeting a couple of friends coming in from Manhattan and will need to fix meeting point with them…

We usually head to the stadium about 30-45 min before kickoff. There will be some of our crew that is staying in the lot to watch the game. Hope you can join us for the tailgate!  Go Bills!
