PromoTheRobot Posted June 11, 2005 Posted June 11, 2005 Make sure your friend wears Cheifs colors, and maybe brings a sign that says something like "BILLS SUCK!" He'll be sure to get a special welcome to RWS.

Honestly, it could be 20 (Fahrenheit) or 50. Which in bizzaro degrees (Celsius), would be anywhere between -7 to +10.

I did some research for another Chiefs fan (who ended up not getting tickets - scared it was going to be ccccold, boo-hoo), and had to go back 10 years before I found an actual "snow" game in (late) November. Best advice? Be prepared, bring layers, rain/wind gear, etc. - while most of the games in the last 10 years have been no colder than the 5-10 degree (celsius) range, you can probably count on a slight breeze off Lake Erie. (Sarcasm there. That 'breeze' can get up to 50kph right quick. If you saw the Miami or Arizona games last season, you get the idea.) And be sure to stop by Lot 1!

Going to the Ralph for the first time, and having to wait about 5 months or so (seems like 10 months Canadian) to do it is really gonna suck for you. Hang in there, it will be a great time!!!
meazza Posted June 11, 2005 Author Posted June 11, 2005 lol well considering that in january here it goes almost up to -40 degrees celcius which makes buffalo look like a sunny resort i should be ok, it was just that here in montreal in November the weather is sh-------, like rain then it freezes etc lol ya it sucks to wait 5 months but i picked a nice time, hopefully at that point we'll be in the run for a playoff berth and JP should be established in his new offence

Seriously, though, I'd worry more about the windspeed than the temperature. Especially if you're in the upper deck...
HurlyBurly51 Posted June 11, 2005 Posted June 11, 2005 lolwell considering that in january here it goes almost up to -40 degrees celcius which makes buffalo look like a sunny resort i should be ok, it was just that here in montreal in November the weather is sh-------, like rain then it freezes etc lol ya it sucks to wait 5 months but i picked a nice time, hopefully at that point we'll be in the run for a playoff berth and JP should be established in his new offence 355998[/snapback] It's offense...
Campy Posted June 11, 2005 Posted June 11, 2005 ...and having to wait about 5 months or so (seems like 10 months Canadian) 355995[/snapback] That's pretty funny.
meazza Posted June 11, 2005 Author Posted June 11, 2005 great cant wait to see you guys there is it anything like giants stadium ( the only other american venue ive been to) cuz in montreal we have the olympic stadium and bell centre and there isnt really much space to tailgate but i noticed that a lot of venues in the US have a huge parking lot so you guys could get wasted and barbecue

It's also -40 F.
Tom Posted June 11, 2005 Posted June 11, 2005 is it anything like giants stadium ( the only other american venue ive been to) Not really.... Giants Stadium is surrounded by highways & sort of impersonal. The Ralph is actually in a neighborhood and feels much more 'college-like'. You'll like it.
SestakFan Posted June 11, 2005 Posted June 11, 2005 greatcant wait to see you guys there is it anything like giants stadium ( the only other american venue ive been to) cuz in montreal we have the olympic stadium and bell centre and there isnt really much space to tailgate but i noticed that a lot of venues in the US have a huge parking lot so you guys could get wasted and barbecue 356043[/snapback] Congrats on the upcoming visit. Far as I am concerned RWS is a friggin shine. Make sure you get there early to take a long walk around the lots. It is almost as fun as the game itself. Remember to bring the proper food to tailgate for pre and postgame. Pregame is usually sausage, chicken, anything that smells great on the grill. Post game is a good time to heat up some previously prepared chili on the grill. You also grill the remainder of the food you have left that you did not eat during the pregame. It is always in good form to offer anything that you have left on the grill that you are not going to eat, to random unknown passers by. Word of caution...Not a good idea to have your buddy wear the Chiefs uni. Make sure you have proper space to make a quick exit out of your seat in case things start to get out of hand. Enjoy!
Tom Posted June 11, 2005 Posted June 11, 2005 great Hey, were you at the Bills-jests game last year in NJ? Did I meet you? I remember 2 guys from Montreal....
Buffal0 Bill5 Posted June 11, 2005 Posted June 11, 2005 I refuse to except the metric system! They tried to force it on us in the seventies, and we said NO! (Man, am I the only one who really misses the flip off smilie?) Why would you want an odd number like 0 to be the freezing point, when something like 32 makes so much sense. And all of those multiples of 10. Stupid 1000 meter kilometers. Everybody knows a mile is ummm...bad example. Why don't we measure things in rods any more?
