Guffalo Posted August 25, 2005 Posted August 25, 2005 I always park at Hammers if I don't have to run to the airport for a quick getaway, otherwise I will park opposite Hammers on one of the sidestreets, People give up spots for 10 or so. Walk over to the fieldhouse and the Pinto, then lot 1 Pole 6/5
Thurman's Helmet Posted August 25, 2005 Posted August 25, 2005 Park near the closest exit so you can ditch out of there before the "3rd quarter rush"

MarkyMannn Posted August 25, 2005 Posted August 25, 2005 California Drive you can park for $5 at a variey of lots. Maybe a 1/4 mile walk to the RWS lot from there
udonkey Posted August 25, 2005 Posted August 25, 2005 I've parked at Hammer's twice now - for location and amenities, I think that it is one of the best options...clean portojohns designated only for those who park in the lot (very important if you have women with you).
slothrop Posted August 25, 2005 Posted August 25, 2005 there is a church on Abbott Rd where I park. You can use their bathrooms, they sell burgers and hotdogs, and it is a short walk. The cost is $10.00 I think.

Generally leaving from Grand Island, so thats the way we go.For all of you doing the double header on the 17th(including me) that will be your best way from the hockey to the football. Course I'm there early and tend to stay late. Can't comment on the potties, as there is a nice stand of trees there that tend to get used quite a bit by both the men and the ladies.
drnykterstein Posted August 25, 2005 Posted August 25, 2005 how much is hammers lot, and what time should i get there before it fills ups?

Guffalo Posted August 25, 2005 Posted August 25, 2005 how much is hammers lot, and what time should i get there before it fills ups? 417878[/snapback] I have pulled in as late as 11:30 am for a 1:00 game, I think I have seen cars pull in even later than that
BRH Posted August 25, 2005 Posted August 25, 2005 Hell if I'm going to tell any of you where I park. I get in and out so fast it's criminal, and if I tell you then everybody will want to park there and it'll suck. I'm just looking out for number one.
udonkey Posted August 25, 2005 Posted August 25, 2005 Whats the fun in leaving quick? The best part of a win is going back to your car, firing up the grille again, having a couple of burgers and beers, and shooting the sh-- with fellow Bills fans around you while the traffic dies down. This coming from a guy that has a 6 1/2 hour drive home (I don't drink beers if I'm driving) - I don't understand why locals would be in such a hurry.

When it comes to parking anywhere, anytime, it's survival of the fittest!

Then I got married and had kids (both of whom are still too young for me to take to the games). Now I consider myself lucky that I get to leave Rochester at 10 or 10:30 a.m., see the game in person, and am back home by 6. I am impressed with your dedication, though. That drive to and from Cincy has got to be one of the most boring stretches of highway in the nation.

Yes, the drive is pretty rough - its about 2 1/2 hours from Buffalo to Cleveland, then another 4 or so from Cleveland to Cincy. Not exactly scenic, especially at night.

One year we were the last car to leave the lot. I never park in the Stadium lots because they don't open early enough, and you have to get out to early too. If I can't have my grill going by 8am, then I won't park there. I usually park in the private lot on the north side right before Lot 5. They don't care when you get there and if you leave late.
