I’ll never forget it that week was incredible and I talk about it every year how I want to do the backers week again in fort lauderdale went back in 07 when we had TO (I think that was the year) unreal week and weekend with bills fans - we got slaughtered but was amazing Quote
gjv Posted January 4 Posted January 4 Considering all the WNY transplants living in Central and South Florida who are die-hard Bills fans, along with the snowbirds from Buffalo, the Bills may very well have a home-field advantage in Hard Rock Stadium. GO BILLS squish the FISH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 2 Quote

WhoTom Posted January 4 Posted January 4 For many years, the Bills played the 'Phins in Miami early in the season and then hosted them in the winter. I liked that arrangement until the Miami stadium sunshine advantage came into play. I like this even better - we avoid the heat and still get a "home game" against them in the winter. I wonder if the clear advantage they got in last year's early game affected the league's decision to flip-flop the home and away games. 1 Quote

Then add the Bills fans who already live down south. The Mrs. and I almost got tickets as far back as September. Even then things were a little bit more than we were willing to pay and it just sort of died on the vine. Therefore I will have to suffer through watching it on the 135" screen in the living room. First world problems. Go Bills! Edited January 4 by dollars 2 donuts 1 1 Quote
Clyde Smith Posted January 4 Posted January 4 Bryan Cox said it 30 years ago. Bills fans come to Miami and beat up our fans. 1 2 Quote
eball Posted January 4 Posted January 4 1 hour ago, boyst said: normally it is transportation prices that keep me from going to games. this time it is ticket prices. I should have pulled the trigger 2 months ago on tickets for this one because I can take Cheapo Air down there for $130. Back in Nov. Tickets for lower bowl were $240 for very good seats and airfare from Spirit was $70. This year will be three in a row for us. Can't wait; the crowd is always pro-Bills and I expect this one to be crazy... Quote
TheBrownBear Posted January 4 Posted January 4 I'm sure we will represent well, but we haven't played particularly well in these mixed crowd away games (LA and London). Quote

(WKBW) — Get ready South Florida here comes Bills Mafia! Sunday's showdown for the AFC East title in Miami is a road game for the Buffalo Bills, but it may not look and feel like it. According to VividSeats.com, it projects that more than half of the fans inside Hard Rock Stadium on Sunday will be rooting for the Buffalo Bills. That's a lot of red, white and blue as the stadium holds 65,326 people. Using the "Fan Forecast" algorithm VividSeats projects that the split of fans at Sunday's game in Miami will be 52% to 48% in favor of the Bills. I don't quite see how a home crowd could be under < 50% especially when the visiting team is not really close in proximity. 20 minutes ago, TheBrownBear said: I'm sure we will represent well, but we haven't played particularly well in these mixed crowd away games (LA and London). LOL that wasn’t a mixed crowd game, it technically was a “home game.” It was more like a neutral site game Quote
uticaclub Posted January 4 Posted January 4 That’s not counting the Bills fans local to South Florida. SoFi was 70% against the Chargers Quote
