GhostsOfTheRockpile Posted September 7, 2006 Posted September 7, 2006 My father and I had seasons tickets from the 1986 season through the 1998 season. That last season I was in DC my freshman year of college, and the communte for more than a game or two a season was too expensive. I spent four years in DC, then the past four in Boston for grad school, always making the commute for opening day and another three games a season (I'd say I averaged four home games those years). I recently moved back, but had to pass on purchasing any tickets as I was unsure of where I'd be working. Fortunately, I recently started a great job in downtown Buffalo, and am happy to report that as of today (and thanks to a kind soul on CraigsList who's wife wants him to spend more time with this three and two year old daughters), my father and I will be returning to Rich Sta... er... The Ralph as seasons ticket holders. For this season, and hopefully many to come.
beerme1 Posted September 7, 2006 Posted September 7, 2006 Nobody cares? You're RETURNING to the area as opposed to the brain drain that continues! All of us care about that. Welcome back. What kind of seats did you get?

2003Contenders Posted September 7, 2006 Posted September 7, 2006 Maybe you're a Good Luck Charm! The team was almost always in the playoffs back when you were going to those games in the late 80 and thru the 90s. They've sucked since you left after 1998... Many people think that this year feels like 1986 in that they will finish with a bad record but with tons of hope for the future.
Peter Posted September 7, 2006 Posted September 7, 2006 Congratulations. Apparently your absence was what was missing, because we have not been very good since you gave up your season tickets.
NorthWesternBill Posted September 7, 2006 Posted September 7, 2006 Season tickets would be ridiculous... living in salem Oregon that sounds almost intangible...
SDS Posted September 7, 2006 Posted September 7, 2006 Fortunately, I recently started a great job in downtown Buffalo,.. 764203[/snapback] So YOU'RE the one!
Zona Posted September 7, 2006 Posted September 7, 2006 Finally! We can now return the playoffs and beyond. Good Luck in Buffalo. Wish I could move my family back there.

GhostsOfTheRockpile Posted September 7, 2006 Author Posted September 7, 2006 Our seats are in the Rockpile section. Not as good as the ones we had back in the days, but I'll take 'em!
