Agreed, tops. It was probably somewhere between 10-15%. We definitely showed up, but didn’t make a dent until the 3rd quarter when the Seahawks fans started to leave.

 

I was in the 200’s on the Bills sideline and there were ~10 bills fans in my row

and the two in front and behind me(out of 100 seats). The 100s level seemed to have a lot more Bills fans, but not a majority. Don’t get me wrong, it was a great showing and by the 4th quarter it was mostly us left, but the 50/50 talk is very inflated.

Exactly.  Definitely a good showing, but let's not overstate it. When they made noise, Seahawk fans were MUCH louder than Bills fans. The reality is that the Bills let all the air out of the stadium with their opening drive. Seattle fans never got their energy back after that. They got quieter, and the Bills fans could compete with that quieter Seahawks crowd.

Vehemently disagree. We walked around before and during the game and it felt like half the crowd was Bills fans. Which is another reason I'm positive the Seahawks pipe in crowd noise.

 

Not all Bills fans stayed until the end. Lots left early. I did as well..had a flight to catch.

I never expected a loud showing all the way on the other side of the country.  It’s one thing to make it to LA or even SF, but Seattle?  I’m not saying it’s not a pretty city, it’s just a surprise.  EST and CST time stadiums should expect it just as during the many good years, the Steelers always traveled well.
