Blackbeard Posted October 29 Posted October 29 Fellas coming into the US from Canada to attend Bills games: what time does the Peace Bridge begin to back up in front of US customs? last time I got to the bridge at like 830am and it was already backed up into Canada a mile. Quote
TailgateChef Posted October 29 Posted October 29 730 the latest. Be at Duty Free at 630-7 to load up and have some laughs in the parking lot. Then get in line and wait. Unfortunately, they generally only have 2-4 booths open until 8. 2 1 Quote

TailgateChef Posted October 29 Posted October 29 If you're going to the Fish game this weekend, don't forget it's Daylight Savings! An hour of extra drinkin' and eatin' and clownin' is a lot more fun that an hour of extra sleep. 2 1 Quote
shane nelson Posted October 30 Posted October 30 if it works for you, try the Queenston, while its been many years for my, i always found it the fast. Also use Waze 1 Quote
Cson76 Posted October 30 Posted October 30 Take the rainbow bridge. Its off the highway a little bit but its a relatively low wait. Also, call this number 800-715-6722 on the way, it gives you wait times at each bridge and is updated regularly. Quote

I would agree, in get a cheap motel just to get a god nights rest, then leave really early as you have the advantage of daylights savings time, and you’ll have fun at the game. Quote
Blackbeard Posted October 30 Author Posted October 30 My girlfriend lives in Welland, so i need to get back to Fredonia for the game. Last time i left early, arrived at Peace Bridge at like 830ish, and it was insane. Leaving Welland at 6am this time. Beat the backup. Quote

I've stayed at cheap motels but never for the rest. Although you mention a God night's rest and there was an element of God (his name was mentioned several times by my roommate) 1 Quote

FWIW I have Nexus, still about a 30 minute wait at the Peace Bridge as the line was back to duty free for the Titans game. That was around 8:00 - 8:30 Edited October 30 by GottaRun Quote

How does duty free entering US for a couple of days help you as a Canadian resident? Wouldn't you be subjected to the Canadian rules when going back to Canada? 1 Quote
