cåblelady Posted September 13, 2004 Posted September 13, 2004 Zubaz are really loud. You can only wear them when the other team has the ball. 29621[/snapback] I slept in mine.
rockpile Posted September 13, 2004 Author Posted September 13, 2004 I'm making a sign for the next home game "Wave on DEFENSE idiots!"....And what's with some peoplle getting in with HUGE backpacks and then some of us having our small fanny packs searched for bottles?? Hopefully Guest Services will be calling me today as I filled out a complaint about all the hockey...cheerleaders...football kids selling candy and pepperoni and junk as a fundraiser. I know for a fact that Hunter's Hope asked to do some fundraising at the Ralph and was told NO!!!!! (and that was both times JK was honored!) 29378[/snapback] Problem was, you asked! SOMEONE is always selling something or fund raising. Just do it... I know you are legit and have a very worthy cause. No one will hassle you.
Just Jack Posted September 13, 2004 Posted September 13, 2004 These are the same people sitting in front of you who decide to make a beer/bathroom run at the exact moment the teams line up for a play, or worse, right in the MIDDLE of a play. If I were running things I would have gates at the end of each row and at each aisle entrance that lock shut except during timeouts and commercials. Imagine the business these guys could do with such a policy. 29461[/snapback] First game I ever went to was Miami in December of 95. The usher in our section would not let you in the aisle until the a play was over. And there were people that if they were heading up/down the stairs when a play was about to go off, they would stop and sit on the stairs until the play was over, then continue on. Ahh.... the good old days of common courtesy.
MDH Posted September 13, 2004 Posted September 13, 2004 I agree with you guys. It's almost embarassing and seems to happen at every game I go to. Noise on Offense, not enough noise on D. 29094[/snapback] I noticed, even on TV, that when the Bills went to a no-huddle for a few plays that crowd went crazy (I guess they were having early 90s flashbacks)...like the fans didnt' realize they shouldn't be making noise when the Bills have the ball.
mead107 Posted September 13, 2004 Posted September 13, 2004 they should put something in the program or hand outs at the gates on how and when fans should react.it might help
Mike in Syracuse Posted September 13, 2004 Posted September 13, 2004 Had a guy several rows in front of us who tried to get the wave going - all game long. The he expressed disgust when he got very little response from the crowd. THEN, late in the game the whole stadium starts doing the wave. Problem was the Bills had the ball!! I was screaming at this guy: "Sit down, WE have the ball!" but he was too pleased with himself to hear anything, and too ignorant to know the wave was intended to rattle the OTHER team with the ball. I was hoping the national media did not catch this. Made Buffalo fans look like complete maroons! 28501[/snapback] It's hard to believe that anything was more annoying than my commentary We should have thrown the fat tard off the upper deck.
kasper13 Posted September 13, 2004 Posted September 13, 2004 The wave was lame 20 years ago. Some a-hole gets a few beers in him and the coolest thing ever becomes starting a wave. I hate the f-in wave. I hate it even more when a bunch of morons do it when the home team has the ball. That dude should have gotten flung off the upper deck and had his Zubaz revoked for life. What has happened to Bills fans? I didn't see more than 2 fights, nobody was passed out in or around the stadium and the fans did the wave when the Bills had the ball. The fans performance was just as bad as the Bills performance was. Let's hope we all regroup in time for the NE game.
Mike32282 Posted September 13, 2004 Posted September 13, 2004 I noticed that too and wondered why the crowd started getting really loud when Drew and crew were trying to do the no-huddle. I'm guessing the noise was why they only did it for a couple plays and stopped.
mead107 Posted September 13, 2004 Posted September 13, 2004 i can rember going to albany fire bird games and the croud would allways be loudest when the fire birds had the ball ,could not under stand it .seems to me people do not know how to be good fans
Tux of Borg Posted September 14, 2004 Posted September 14, 2004 The excitement in section 312 came from two girls making out. That was the loudest the section cheered the entire game.
YOOOOOO Posted September 14, 2004 Posted September 14, 2004 Maybe we should be like the Jets and get a "Firemen Ed" type guy....When that guy is shown on the jumbo tron he waves his arms and everybody in the crowd STFU.....It's the greatest thing I've ever seen...
rockpile Posted September 14, 2004 Author Posted September 14, 2004 It's the same a$$holes that *cheered* when Rob Johnson went down with his last injury as a Bill.(Regardless if you liked,or hated Johnson,it was still classless)If this crap continues,I'll stay at home next year. 30302[/snapback] I will not let let the morons ruin my tailgate with TSW. It would be less of a party without you Bart! Our section was actually pretty well behaved, and loud when we needed to be. B)
Guest Guest Posted September 14, 2004 Posted September 14, 2004 Listen doing the wave while your team has the ball is wrong to a point. I've been a season ticket holder since 85 and i think our fans suck. The ralph is becoming the aud were no one will want to cheer for anything. The last drive that stadium was way to quiet in the kelly era you wouldnt have been able to hear yourself think. Truly disappointed in the fans hey if you dont want to stand up at the end of the game and make some noise stay at home and sit on your couch. I will give someone credit to the wave at least they were into the game with some spirit. I really dont think doing the wave throws the offense off by any stretch of the imagination so relax have some fun lets not make this place the aud.
BillnutinHouston Posted September 14, 2004 Posted September 14, 2004 Anyone that does the wave when our team has the ball should be forcibly removed from the stadium. Having said that, if our defense can't move the ball at home with a few idiots doing the wave, then we haven't a prayer on the road where the other team's fans are making noise for real.
VABills Posted September 14, 2004 Posted September 14, 2004 Anyone that does the wave when our team has the ball should be forcibly removed from the stadium.

I believe Fletcher got a penalty for that this weekend.
JÂy RÛßeÒ Posted September 14, 2004 Posted September 14, 2004 Why would our defense be moving the ball. I believe Fletcher got a penalty for that this weekend. 30453[/snapback]
BillnutinHouston Posted September 14, 2004 Posted September 14, 2004 Of course I meant our OFFENSE moving the ball!
BILLS4LIFE Posted September 15, 2004 Posted September 15, 2004 Our section was actually pretty well behaved, and loud when we needed to be. B) 30431[/snapback] My STILL sore throat was proof of that.
LewPort71 Posted September 15, 2004 Posted September 15, 2004 Mike in Syr. ..your commentary was too funny...Don't ever stop. Regarding the wave idiot in front of the TDB section..The radio guys on WGR commented on the Wave while the Bills had the ball and thought it was pretty stupid..Again,it is not 1985... And the Stadium noise was at a high level...On the TV broadcast Don Criqui (sp?) commented on the high level of noise when the Jags had the ball. I am still amazed at the start of the game and the bald eagle...That was cool.
Bledsoe1 Posted September 15, 2004 Posted September 15, 2004 First time I remember seeing it was during the 1984 baseball season. I remember the Padres fans were doing it in the NLCS at the Murph. It would explain a lot if it were true that Californians invented such a mindless activity. 29463[/snapback] Yup, that's when I first saw it... 1984 Padres at Jack Murphy Stadium. But this Californian was ticked off seeing it during our Offense on sunday. I stayed in my seat and couldn't believe all those knuckleheads...
