Huuuge Bills Posted April 25, 2008 Posted April 25, 2008 All that remains is a couple of corner pieces: Rockpile Wow, weird seeing it like that, compared to how it used to look. (from the pictures I've seen) Wonder if the same thing would happen to the Ralph if we ever got a new stadium.
The Senator Posted April 25, 2008 Posted April 25, 2008 Wow, weird seeing it like that, compared to how it used to look. (from the pictures I've seen) Still can't fathom that it's gone - I remember going to Bills games, Demolition Derbies, the filming of The Natural w/ Robert Redford, and - in its final stages - hosting our AAA BuffTown Bisons while Pilot Field was going up. Wonder if the same thing would happen to the Ralph if we ever got a new stadium. I think land in OP is too valuable (as opposed to land at Jefferson & Best Streets) for that to happen - don't forget, there are also acres and acres of parking lots. My guess would be an upscale shopping mall, or - keeping with the 'auto-mile' theme - a 'super-dealership'.
rockpile Posted April 25, 2008 Posted April 25, 2008 Cool that the Main Entrance is still up. Too bad they do not have a better picture of the entrance, with the standing Buffalo logo in the upper corners. I went back there several years ago and it was odd to see the stadium gone. The thing I remember most as a kid was hoping we would not get seats behind a pole in the covered end zone, how BIG it seemed even though it was tiny by comparision to the Ralph, and the crowd chanting "Lamonica" every time Kemp made a mistake. Funny how the Bills allowed QB controversies way back then - some things do not change. As a teenage dishwasher in a lakeshore restaurant (Foit's) , I remember players coming in for dinner every now and then.

Wish there was more video footage available.
***PetrinoInAlbany*** Posted April 25, 2008 Posted April 25, 2008 Wow. Seeing it almost made a tear come to my eye. And not because it reminded me of the '68 team ...
