EZC-Boston Posted July 19, 2009 Posted July 19, 2009 I plan on painting my game room next weekend but can't figure out what color to go with. I want something to support the Sabres or Bills but none of their colors really catches my eye (plus I'm a little colorblind). Anybody have any suggestions? I was thinking about the blue from the throwback jerseys but that was before my time and might be too dark for a big room. I'm sure somebody here has an opinion.
Navy Chief Navy Pride Posted July 19, 2009 Posted July 19, 2009 You could always do 2 of the walls blue and gold and use that for the Sabres walls and then the other 2 walls blue and red and use them for the Bills walls. Of course the ceiling would be white.

Marv's Neighbor Posted July 19, 2009 Posted July 19, 2009 You could always go with Brown, just in case they play like crap!
jester43 Posted July 19, 2009 Posted July 19, 2009 if you are a bills AND sabres fan, you should paint it royal blue, white, scarlet, navy blue, ruby red, nickel gray, black, gold and silver. did i forget any?
jester43 Posted July 19, 2009 Posted July 19, 2009 and while you are at it, you could show respect to the braves by adding orange and powder blue.
Assquatch Posted July 19, 2009 Posted July 19, 2009 and while you are at it, you could show respect to the braves by adding orange and powder blue. Something I always found interesting about Pittsburgh is that the Steelers, Penguins and Pirates all have the same black/gold color scheme. I suppose that makes it easier for the inbred to know for whom to cheer.
PastaJoe Posted July 19, 2009 Posted July 19, 2009 You could paint the walls white, but then have a wide blue stripe going horizontally across the walls, with a thinner red stripe above and a thinner gold stripe below the wider blue stripe.
Lv-Bills Posted July 19, 2009 Posted July 19, 2009 I plan on painting my game room next weekend but can't figure out what color to go with. I want something to support the Sabres or Bills but none of their colors really catches my eye (plus I'm a little colorblind). Anybody have any suggestions? I was thinking about the blue from the throwback jerseys but that was before my time and might be too dark for a big room. I'm sure somebody here has an opinion. I just did this about three weeks ago. I'll offer one opinion......if you keep the room off white, everything you hang on the walls look better. Seriously. Make your walls off white, and add color to them with your decorations. Banners, Colored Jerseys (not the white jerseys), pennants, pictures all look better on off white. Then, your memorabilia stands out more. The room will quickly take color, trust me.
The_Philster Posted July 19, 2009 Posted July 19, 2009 and while you are at it, you could show respect to the braves by adding orange and powder blue. and the 1 team in Buffalo that's won championships more recently than the 60s by using orange, purple, and black
BillsFanNC Posted July 19, 2009 Posted July 19, 2009 What I did was hire a local painter/artist to paint the Sabres (not the slug!) and Bills logos on the walls and left the walls a more neutral color.
Fezmid Posted July 20, 2009 Posted July 20, 2009 and the 1 team in Buffalo that's won championships more recently than the 60s by using orange, purple, and black (although I'm a Swarm fan now...)
EndZoneCrew Posted July 20, 2009 Posted July 20, 2009 Make it purple, white, and black.......and I will sign it for you! Sincerely, EZC-NU

Chandler#81 Posted July 20, 2009 Posted July 20, 2009 The Bills throwback blue is lighter than anything they've worn since. The Sabres change uni's so often now, I wouldn't advise them, sans their original Blue & Gold. What I did for my 'mancave' was put up wainscoat (sp?) 3 feet up from the floor with edging. I hang framed pics and memorabilia on that as well as the walls -light green, bar look. Then, anything can go up. Whatever you decide, please show us.
