Week 15: Denver @ Buffalo, Sat Dec 17, 8:30 EST

[BlueDamsel]

Who's gonna represent?

[27atwater]

Saturday night, December 17th live on ESPN...Denver travels to Buffalo. This is a great opportunity for all of us northeastern region Bronco fans to get together. An all day party BEFORE the game...and ya won't even have to miss any of the Sunday games.

I brought this up on the BroncosFreak board as well, but the more Denver fans the better. There are quite a few who say they are making the trip. I know Orchard Park quite well as I'm originally from Western PA and preferred traveling to Buffalo rather than Cleveland or Pittsburgh. The fans are great and the stadium is HUGE. I think currently 2nd biggest in the NFL behind Washington. It's easy to get around and is very close to Niagara Falls if ya haven't ever been there. The Falls in december are awesome. If ya bring a lady friend, they love the frozen mist hanging from the trees and the x-mas lights. Anyone interested in getting with our group can PM me and I'll get ya my email/phone #.

[Ratboy]

Me and my Brother (bills fan) are wanting to go, We started crunching some numbers and

For flying it would be about $400 PER PERSON.

Driving would be about $380 per person.

Anyone have advice? Weather to fly/drive or discounts or anything like that? We'd appericate it.

[Ratboy]

I seen some tickets on ebay already. We are in question to buy them now or wait a little longer?

I seen 2 tickets in the endzone (row 3) for $124!

I kinda want to be on the side though, and i haven't seen anything yet.

Maybe if anyone in Buffalo can find us some deals, i'd appericate it.

I was checking out hotels and airfare today, too...Expedia offers some flights/hotel package deals for about the same price as just the airfare on Northwest or United. (at $200+savings...)

[Hogan11]

Who's gonna represent?

Not me, that's for sure. I've had nothing but bad experiences when it comes to Bills fans @ The Ralph.....so much so that I absolutely refuse to go there, regardless of the situation.

I'll pass and go to San Diego instead.

[27atwater]

hmmm, I like it there quite a bit, but I know what yer talking about. Now my friends who are Jets and Dolphins fans have had their troubles, but at the Broncos game in 97, everyone was real cool. we got some crap about Napoleon running all over us the week before, but no more than the typical home crowd taunting/ribbing.

There is a community college behind the stadium that is easy to get into and parking is cheaper. The tailgating won't be as intense since we won't be in with the HUGE parking crowd, but it's not a bad spot at all to do something. We will walk thru the bigger lot to get to the stadium. There is a field for us to play ball if we need to right next to the lots. This is where I usually park cuz ya can jump off the highway and slip behind the mall to avoid the main traffic. Once off the exit, it only takes me @ 15 minutes TOPS to get into the lot and it's @3-4 miles. I've been to about 20 games there.

I recommend flying. Ya never know what the weather will bring thru PA and NY and it'd be easier not to have to worry about it. PLUS, it'd give ya more time to see the Falls, etc. Once ya hit the PA mountains, the weather changes drastically. One way to consider would be thru Pittsburgh up thru Erie and across the NY thruway...if ya do drive. This way ya avoid the mountains for the most part and it covers major highways rather than smaller local routes. PM me if ya want more secific info.

You can usually get tickets straight from the team when they go on sale. They don't sell out like they used to. I was able to get tix to the Steelers game in October last year. However, it is a night game on TV, so tix may be in demand. I say if ya dont' necessarily want to site there...why pay extra? The prices should be the same on ebay if ya can't get them from the team. I usually sit upper deck 20 yard line or lower level corner of endzone about 20 rows up. I am a big believer that you can be TOO close. Ya lose depth perception and too mnay things get in the way on the field.

[GSRelyea]

I will be at the game, Buffalo is about a 3 1/2 hour drive from my house so I can bring a lot of stuff with me. There should be 3 or 4 other bronco fans making the trek with me.

[27atwater]

I must say now that my resources will probably be limited. I have a drive across state of PA for xmas at the folks carting the wife, 2 kids, 2 dogs, luggage and gifts in a Chevy Blazer. If necessary, I can rent a grill for Saturday, but if a local or 2 can bring one, that would be great.

If schedules work out, 2-3 of my fellow Bronco fan friends (in B-more, Hershey and richmond VA) will be there as well. They are pondering coming home before x-mas instead of after. This could be pretty big.

[GSRelyea]

I can def. bring a grill out for this game and anything else that we need.

Uh oh GSRelyea. This is how it all starts man. You are in danger of becoming a tailgate junkie. You are already talking about lugging a BBQ, bunch of stuff, and friends on a 3 hour drive. Sounds like the Buffalo tailgate is underway!

Little bit of advice. Get yourself a vehicle now and get it over with! Infact my friends who helped me build the bus are talking about rolling out a fleet of Broncos style VW classics.

The Broncos lot out in Denver has a handful of Broncos tailgating vehicles but I think it would be great to see dozens and dozens of them out there!

We need someone on the East Coast to represent when we can't make it out there! :)


Something like this would be easy to fix up. Get an old style Orange Crush tire cover (I've seen some around town), a couple old school logos on the outside, a quick tweaking of the stereo system, maybe a small slide out BBQ system (stainless), power inverter, beef up the battery systems, oil change/tune up......oh maybe a flag pole system to raise our colors........and any Broncos fan could be in business!

[27atwater]

I am but a peon who basks in your glow. Ya'll got skills when it comes to this tailgating thing.

Those 3 in 137 look perfect. Hope they're not TOO low. Have to do some research first. Lemme know if a buch of us wanna eat up the 9 tix in 122. If so, I'll grab 3 or 4 sp some of us are together. Thanx for the heads up.

[GSRelyea]

Meck, I will def hook something up for both NY games, prob arrive in a Coors light party bus. Did you ever get a hold of anybody on that website?

Ah there ya go. Coors Light bus! That will work. B-love has some bar in NY that a friend of his owns that we are probably going to park at for a day and then go to the game the following day. It would be a honor to park next to the Coors Light bus. :alky:


Uh which site? Did you send me a link?

*whoops* wrong thread. This plan is for the Giant game not the Buff game.

[Ratboy]

Is stubhub.com a good place? is it reliable?

[27atwater]

No idea. It's fairly new, but they are pretty inexpensive compared to ticketcity and goldenticket.

[Ratboy]

Ok i just bought those 2 tickets

Section 137
Row 7
2 tickets
Price $50.00 each

It came up to about $110.

All i'm waiting for is confirmed by the seller.

It also says i won't receive the items 7 days before the start of the regular season.

Now, I have to figure out a plan on plane, hotel and rental car.

[27atwater]

Cool. I have to wait a few days since my CC expired. Once I get my new one, I'll try and grab the 3 seats in row 10

[Ratboy]

If every thing plays out right we'll be able to go. If something pops up and we cannot go.. Then i figured i could back out and sell them either on ebay or to a fellow broncos fan.

[Ratboy]

Seems like expedia is around $400 per person. (thats with plane tickets, hotel, and car)

[Ratboy]

Since i've never flown, whats do you think i'll spend?

I bought the tickets (2) for $100.

What do you think i'll spend for a hotel, plane tickets and a rental car? (for both people)

2 Plane Tickets
1 Hotel for 2 Nights
a rental car from 16th-18th(morning)

[GSRelyea]

There is a Red Roof Inn about 4 miles from Ralph Wilson Stadium, when I checked on Hotels.com the rates were 44$ per night. The airport is about 10-15 miles from the hotel.

can you post up where your seats are ? im going to be going with a few of the canadian fans, we met meck and a few of the guys down in canton last year, hoping to see some of yous this year in buffalo. This is gonna rock guys.

[bobdobilina]

i live in toronto and definitely want to head down to this one... anyone driving from t dot?

[rbackfactory80]

Buffalo sunday night i will be present.

[27atwater]

Isn't the game on Saturday?

This is gonna be frickin' sweet.

[GSRelyea]

yes, it's a Saturday night game, it is going to be a cold one, but very fun. I think we are heading out on Friday afternoon to spend a night at the casino and then head to the stadium on Saturday for a little tailgaiting. Should be great, Bills fans are pretty die hard, watch out for snow balls!!

No doubt it is Saturday

[Boogerboots]

Looks like I might make the trek down from Ottawa to catch this one. Any word on where's the best spot to get tickets?? And how hostile are the Buffalo fans? Is there a better zone to buy tickets?

And is the big bus going to be there?

Who's got the 411??

I saw a guy on ebay selling a ton of tickets. He had like 45 of them not long ago.

No the bus is going to the Giants game though.

www.stubhub.com has very reasonable tickets for this game, 115 for lower level 20 yard line, and I think 85 will get you lower level endzone. It is crazy how much cheaper the Bills tickets are v.s the Giants ones.

Tks for the info!!

I was looking between stubhub and ticket master and most what I could find was in the $45 and $60 range. Is there any good areas in the upper bowl that may be worth getting?? I'm not really familiar with the layout and angles of the stadium.

[NyBroncsFan77]

Hey guys I'm looking to head up to that Buffalo game myself. Nothing like driving in the snowy New York Tru-way System to fulfill your football desires. I might just get one of those bus travbel tickets they are going for about 100 bucks. If there's going to be a big tailgating going on, on Saturday maybe I'll just drive and find a hotel. Got a little time to decide. Anyway See you all up there I hope

[Meck77]

10 tix to this game here for 65 bucks a pop.

Me and Mrs. Bum are planning on being there. We got luxery box seats(a first for me) thru her company's insurance company. It's great having a wife w/ great connections. Anyhow we are planning on having a long weekend in Buffalo and would like to get together w/ all the Bronco Fans that are gonna be at the game. Let me know.

Could anyone find a great deal for flying from Orlando to Buffalo?

http://jetblue.com (Bills Sponser)

JetBlue has some cheap tickets ($114 a person, round trip), but it ended at midnight, So now i'm wondering how much the tickets will be with out the sale.

I added it up and it would cost like $580 for flying and driving. That includes Flight, Rental Car, and Hotel. Driving would come out more expensive (Food) and straining since it's like a 20 hour drive.

We're hoping some cheap tickets hit the market soon.

If you find any, Please post them ASAP.

[Ratboy]

We found a cheap car and hotel (a hotel in canada).

[Ratboy]

Anyone ever do the "Name your own price" ?

Is it a scam or what?

[GSRelyea]

Anyone ever do the "Name your own price" ?

Is it a scam or what?

I assume you are talking about priceline right? If you put in a "name your own price" you are locked into what ever they find for you, ie you could be getting some pretty early/late flight times. I have never used it, but that is what I have been told.

[NyBroncsFan77]

Alrighty I finally got that ticket. Sitting way up in the nose bleed section 311. I'll be leaving Syracuse at 9:00am. Seems the package includes a tailgate. So I should definatly be there by about noon pending weather. I'll look around for that Big Broncos Orange in the sea of red and blue.

[Ratboy]

We just reserved our flight.

we're flying Independence Air. Flying out of Orlando and connecting in Washington-Dulles, VA.

[Ratboy]

We now need a car. Unfortuntly, My brother is 24 and it seems like most places require you to be 25.

Can anyone help out on something he can rent?

Upon Checking online Enterprise has an option for 21 thru 24. You might pay more for the liabilty but you should be able to get a car from them. Just go to the website

[Ratboy]

Thanks for the help. We checked out a few places, It's like a $50/day addition..

[Bronco Billy]

Just got tickets from Stubhub.com. Wondering if I'll be sitting next to any Broncos fans? My wife and I are in Sect. 107, row 5 ($70 each). Hopefully we're not too low and visability will be okay.

We got Section 137 Row 7.

I'm looking at the seating chart and you'll be sitting across from us.

I've read stories about bills fans being rowdy, what about you?

[NyBroncsFan77]

Like I said originally I'm in section 301 Maybe I can sell that ticket or something and Get myself a better one I really don't care to be up in the Higher areas

[Bronco Billy]

I haven't heard anything. I'm more worried about snowballs than anything else. I was in Indy and sat next to the biggest drunk in Indiana for the first Indy-Broncos playoff game in '04. '27atwater' form Orangemane has been to a number of games in Buffalo. He didn't say anything about the fans. He's the best person I know to ask.

If you didn't already know, buffalobills.com has a interactive seating chart so you can you see what kind of view you will have from your section. They usaually show views form the 10th and 30th rows for the 100 level.

[27atwater]

The fans can be brutal, but I gotta say they are only THAT BAD when they play NYJ or Miami. Then the stadium is 1/3 empty by halftime...literally. All you see is neon green POLICE jackets swarming on different parts of the stadium throughout the game. My buddy got punched in the pissa cuz a drunk guy thought he cut him in line. But again, mostly just against those 2. I've been there for many games w/o any problems. The worst I got was some Napoleon Kauffman jabs cuz it was 2 weeks after he ran all over us during one of our SB years.

I've seen NE, KC, Jax in playoffs, Denver, Pittsburgh last year, detroit, indy twice, miami, NYJ twice among others. I do gotta say, it is the most fun place to watch a game and tailgate that I've been to.

So are we gonna get something going with BroncosFreak and OrangeMane members tailgating???? We can park cheap at the Community College behind the big lot. It's cheap and has plenty of room. A handful of "freaks" say they are making the trip up. Some of my friends from back home are going up too. We can have a nice tailgate if we all get together. Lemme know!!!

[R8RH8R]

Who's gonna represent?


Got my tickets and will be there, loud and proud..GO BRONCOS
Bills fans don't scare me..I've sat near the dawg pound in Cleveland wearing my Elway jersey and got out unscathed ( being 6'7 325 Has it's advantages)..

[Meck77]

Anybody got an extra ticket to this game? I just checked expedia and I can get a smokin deal on a round trip flight. How far is the stadium to the airport in Buffalo? I'd love to tailgate with you guys and go to this game!

[chadta]

meck if your gonna do it let us know, im sure soembody could pick you up at the airport, im gonna be getting tics off stubhub, soon as people that are supposed to go either pony up the cash or back out, i know rob and myself are going forsure tho, we were the guys with the bumper stickers in canton, maybe well bring over some cuban cigars for everybody to enjoy too.

[NyBroncsFan77]

I'm in I am taking a bus trip up unfortunatly with a bunch of Buffulo fans I bet according to my information the parking won't even be open till around 4 which if that's true that freaking sucks. Could have went all day at another Broncos Tailgate. Anyway I think I'm going to look for some lower level seating as right now I'm sitting in higher nosebleed 50 yard line. If any of you want to try and get a hold of me of where you want to meet in the parking lot and set up another sea of Orange let me know. I'm good to go.

GOOOOO BRONCOS!

[NyBroncsFan77]

Hey Meck Checked out Ebay and this was one of the better tickets as far as seating might be concerned check it out 2 tixs.

Close to the field if that's what you like. I'd go halfs with yah and get rid of my ticket. I prefer to not be up in nose bleed but I'll take what I got.

I remember you guys. That was one helluva find with those stickers. That was a blast. I managed to keep a couple that are now on the bus!

Keep me in the loop if you guys order tix. Gotta get thru the game today and then make a decision soon.

[bobdobilina]

so was anyone driving down from T.O. for this... would be interested if there's a ride in the offering.

[Paulie Emm]

We got Section 137 Row 7.

I'm looking at the seating chart and you'll be sitting across from us.

I've read stories about bills fans being rowdy, what about you?

I'm in section 137 row 9, see you there!

And oh yeah, Bills fans can be rowdy, just keep it in check until you're in a moving vehicle.

[27atwater]

I'm gonna call the community college to see what time that lot will open up. If it's not until 4...there is a mall with a restaurant/bar about 1 mile from the stadium if ya'll wanted to hang out before 4. If not, I may just take the wife to the Falls for the afternoon. I'll try to get my tix in section 137 as well. I was trying to wait until the Bills kept losing to see if prices would drop. May as well buy 'em now.

[27atwater]

looks like i have to investigate further. the school doesn't handle the lots for gamedays. I company called alright (sp?) does. I'll research more, but if anyone has heard of them any help would be great.

[27atwater]

college lot also between 4 and 5 PM.

Alright Parking Buffalo Inc. (716) 849-5831 ...

[27atwater]

I'll get more specific directions soon, but when ya come off of the Orchard Park exit from the thruway, ya turn left toward the stadium. Turn right JUST BEFORE the mall and go all the way down until you see a walmart. Turn left at the walmart (90 degree turn, not the 45degree). The lot will be @ 1-2 miles on your left for the community college.

[Meck77]

I think a couple guys from around here are bringing RVs. Don't they have a cash RV lot by the stadium? 1 mile away is a long way away for a tailgate!

Here is a map. http://www.ralphwilsonstadium.com/facility/parking.htm

I got my hands full trying to nail down the jets, kc, dallas, and SD tailgates still. lol


I think I can make this one though! Still working on it!

[27atwater]

The lot isn't a mile from the stadium. It's 100 yards from the stadium lot. There IS RV parking...if those driving RVs wanna be where me meet at, that's great. Just lemme know what is needed as far as food/libations are concerned.

oh ok...gotcha Well before I'm fully committed with plane ticket in hand I'm just trying to help out where I can. I guess BroncoBum is driving his rig out there. Any freaks bringing an RV? truck etc?

Is this lot a cash lot atwater? I can hit up some of the guys from joes website... www.tailgating.com (click on parking lots).

Those are all the tailgates that Joe has linked up and we usually help one another out while we are they are on the road visiting one anothers stadiums. I'm sure there are a couple buffalso bills tailgate linked up there.

I want to meet this guy. http://www.madbbs.com/users/philster/Pinto.htm

I've heard about his pinto tailgate....I guess it's a tradition to get some kinda drink at this tailgate or something...lol

[GSRelyea]

The RV was just booked, we are driving out on Friday afternoon, and will be hitting Casino Niagara on Friday night, then heading to the stadium on Saturday. Don't care where we park it, whatever lot everybody agrees on then we will be there. Wonder if they will mind if I paint it orange?? Since the East Coast Organe Force 2 is not around yet, figured an RV will come in handy. We will have a grill with us, lots of beer, and lots of food. W/ the Bum working the grill and a lot of Bronco fans representing we will have a pretty kick a$$ tailgate!!!

The lot isn't a mile from the stadium. It's 100 yards from the stadium lot. There IS RV parking...if those driving RVs wanna be where me meet at, that's great. Just lemme know what is needed as far as food/libations are concerned.

[broncobum6162]

I'm in I am taking a bus trip up unfortunatly with a bunch of Buffulo fans I bet according to my information the parking won't even be open till around 4 which if that's true that freaking sucks. Could have went all day at another Broncos Tailgate. Anyway I think I'm going to look for some lower level seating as right now I'm sitting in higher nosebleed 50 yard line. If any of you want to try and get a hold of me of where you want to meet in the parking lot and set up another sea of Orange let me know. I'm good to go.

GOOOOO BRONCOS!


Where are you sitting? On the 5,10 or 15 yard line?

[27atwater]

Just got 4 seats in section 227 last row (unfortunately in non-alcohol section, but there'll be plenty before the game). We only needed 3 but had trouble finding 3 for sale, so we went w/ the cheapest set of 4. We MAY have an extra ticket...depends on if my buddy can convince his girl. I'll know by end of the week.

[GSRelyea]

We should try and get some sort of list going, with who can bring what to the tailgate. It will make things much easier on everyone. Only about a month until the game, gotta get these things taken care of.......

[27atwater]

I can bring a bunch of Jello Shots and snack type stuff. I'll leave the grill stuff to the actual cooks. I can't fit my grill for the trip since I have to load up w/ xmas gifts, 2 dogs and the family. I'll have to prep at my folks place in NW PA.

[27atwater]

I have 3 or 4 in my group and there MAY be some friends from home (3-4 more)who were already going up. I'm not counting on them, but it's possible.

[Meck77]

Anybody interested in sitting at the 50 yard line row 1 behind the Broncos bench? We found some seats but we need a 4th guy as they only sell them in even #'s. We have a group of 3 so far.

Tix are 265 a piece but they don't come any better.

[GSRelyea]

Just Add your your name to the list and what you can bring....

So we have :
GSRelyea: Grill-Beer-Meat
27Atwater: JelloShots-Snacks & X Mas gifts for all Brnco fans

[Meck77]

Ok booked my flight! I'll be in buffalo at 6:19pm on Friday! FYI locals. There are round trip flights out of Denver for $261 bucks. Not bad if any of you locals are thinking about going.

Meck77 -Multiple Broncos flags, Cow Bell, whatever else I can pack on my carry on bag, I'll pitch in for food/beer.

My wife and I would like to come to the tailgate. We're flying in, so I don't know if we could bring anything. We'd be more than happy to pitch-in cash if nobody minds. I guess we could buy more beer for eveyone, we'd just need to borrow a cooler. Do they sell Yuengling beer in Buffalo? I know you can only get it in certain areas.

[Chris]

Well I live in NYC and a friend of mine offered

Well I was originally going to this game because I have a friend from Buffalo with season tickets who offered to have me stay there for the weekend (my broncos obsession is widely public) but I got tickets to the giants game and declined. BUT because I had so much fun at the meadowlands tailgate I think I'm going to have to weasel my way into getting the offer again!

GO BRONCOS! MY VOCAL CHORDS ARE STRONGER NOW!

[27atwater]

GSRelyea: Grill-Beer-Meat
27Atwater: JelloShots-Snacks & X Mas gifts for all Bronco fans
Meck77: Multiple Broncos flags, Cow Bell, whatever else I can pack on my carry on bag, I'll pitch in for food/beer.
Bronco Billy: pitch in money

I can also tie up any loose ends as far as needs go. My folks live 2 hours away, so I have more of a home base than most of ya when it comes to this game. It'll be easier for me to just grab some of what is still needed. Has anyone called the stadium lots yet to try and determine WHICH lot we try and get into? If not, I can call today. Just wondering. I'll prolly just park in the College lot and hunt down the tailgate. I can Private Message my cel# to anyone who wants/needs it.

Do you have a # for stadium parking? I just want to check to see if they make RV's park in certain lots. Thanks

[GSRelyea]

Just got off the phone with parking people. They have 2 RV lots, they fill lot 6 first then lot 14 after that. I guess they open lots on Fridays before the games for the RV's and charge people $30 for the weekend. (which seems really cheap) Looks like Lot #9 (general parking) is very close to both Rv lots. Actually the set up looks very similar to Giants stadium for those who were at that tailgate. We will aim for getting into lot 6 as it is closer to the stadium and I am very lazy. Although lot 14 does have a comfort station whatever that is.....

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v193/GSRelyea/i445x160_parking.jpg

[27atwater]

The lot at the CC is on the opposite side of the stadium...but still not too far to walk. i just got off the phone too. Do we have only the 1 RV? If we have more, do we wanna meet before somewhere and caravan in together. I know cars can't park w/ the Rvs, but it'd be cool if the RVs could be close to eachother.

Again, there is that mall where we could meet and try to get organized.

[chadta]

so was anyone driving down from T.O. for this... would be interested if there's a ride in the offering.

Driving from hamilton, still not sure what the heck is going on tho, nobody can make up there friggin minds.

[BAM44]

I may have a group coming from the Scranton area. I met Meck and the rest of the OF1 Crew in Denver (San Diego) and New York. Great People!! Great Tailgaters!! I wish I knew about the OM before my trip to Denver. I was in Denver the whole week before the San Diego game looking for things to do. The OM has great info on things to do before the game.
Now I know, and knowing is half the battle!!!
Meck-Where are you staying in Buffalo?? We are looking to drive up early on Saturday and get a room that night. Would love to meet up with you guys agian for another East Coast Bash.
As long as we make the trip we will contribute what ever is needed...Beer/Food/Irish Coffee
MUSH

[Meck77]

I'm not sure what hotel yet Bam. I meeting up with GS and a couple of his crew and were crashing in the RV Friday night somewhere? Saturday we have a room at a hotel GS is picking out. He could tell you.

Sorry I can't be much help. I'm just happy to be going and doing what I can to help get a tailgate going! Looks like we'll have a nice representation of an Orange Gang in the lot! :Broncos:

If memory serves, the Bills website said that the comfort station is where the showers are located for those who spend the weekend in their RVs.

[Meck77]

Weekend? No kidding? Hmm never thought about needing a shower at Mile High? Forget the showers we still need some kinda landmark where the 50 yard line was at the old stadium. Much more valuable than a shower. Only question is what would be the best symbol to put there? Too many players put it all on the line on that field and too many Broncos fans have had their ashes spread on that hallowed ground for there not to be something that symbolizes where BroncoMania was born.

I thought this was Broncos Country? America has the white house:USA: ? Denver needs a Mile High Stadium landmark!:Broncos:

I can't be the only Broncos fan who feels this way?

[NyBroncsFan77]

I'm taking that blasted bus. At the first time of hearing it this sounded like such a awesome way to go. I could go and enjoy the game in every way that I could without having to drive. Now it's just my way there. I'll be donating money to the cause as if I bring stuff on the bus I can't promise I'll make sure it will get there unopened.

[chadta]

if you guys are all gonna be in town for the weekend, friday night ya have to come across the river to canada and seee the ballet :angel:

[Ratboy]

If i can stop by the tailgate party, i will.

Look for the youngest one there.

Old Comiskey Park, home of the Chicago White Sox from around 1908 - 1991, became a parking lot after they tore it down. In memory of the old park, they used brown stone to represent the area around home plate and still have homeplate encased in concrete with the batters boxes and the foul lines painted in white.

For Mile High, maybe they can run the 50-yard line stripe across the area. Another idea would be to paint the endzones like they were at old Mile High and place the uprights behind the endzone. Then, you could run the sidelines between the endzones and still mark the 50-yard line in rememberance.

[broncobum6162]

Sounds like a big party going on. Mrs. Bum and I will be there. We have to tread the fine line of doing stuff w/ the Insurance company that gave us the free luxury suite tickets and doing our own thing. They have stuff planned for us and its sort of a company business trip for my wife and we feel we can't totally ingnore them since they comped us the tickets. We are planning on being there for the tailgate and whatever else we can work in. Can't wait to see everyone there and it great you can make it Meck!!!

This is a link to the hotel we booked, http://www.ichotelsgroup.com/h/d/hi/1/en/hd/bufct it is about 8 miles from Ralph Wilson Stadium. It is also a couple of miles from downtown Buffalo, about 30 miles from Niagara Falls/Casino Niagara and close to the airport as well. It is just off of I-90 (very easy to find). All of the hotels in Orchard Park are booked, so if anyone is looking for rooms, I would jump on this quickly. There are also 2 Holiday Inns by the airport (about 15 miles from stadium) that have rooms available.

[Ratboy]

I changed my hotel reservations. It was in Canada near the casino, but I decided toget a little closer to the stadium. It's Econo Lodge in Tonawanda.

Not a bad price either, I believe it came out around $180.

We will be flying in on the 15th and leaving the 19th. It's my first time flying, I'll be a nervous wreck.

[27atwater]

I currently have 1 extra ticket in section 227. We have not been able to find a taker so far. It's the NA section, but it's cheap...$60 if anyone wants it. It is beside me, the wife and my friend...all Bronco fans.

[MowrMowr]

I'm considering a road trip from the DC area...if anyone is interested in splitting the cost, please let me know...I have a quad cab Tundra with room for 4 or 5, and it'll probably be me and my g/f.

[27atwater]

You HAVE to make the trip. It should be a decent tailgate crowd, between the 2 boards. My buddy is coming from Laurel. What part of the area are you in?

[MowrMowr]

I'm in Rockville...Laurel is very much on the way...how is he getting there?

[27atwater]

not sure yet. He may just drive up that day and then straight back...OR...he may go back to his hometown in western PA friday and ride up w/ me. I'll keep ya posted if ya want me to.

[MowrMowr]

Yeah, let me know...I'm still trying to convince the g/f to go, but if she doesn't, I'm not sure what my plans will be.

[MowrMowr]

Just picked up my ticket, so I'll definitely be there...if anyone needs a ride, PM me.

[27atwater]

got my tix in the mail today...section 227 row 11.

[27atwater]

my buddy is gonna meet us in my hometown and then we'll drive up from there.

[GSRelyea]

I'm not sure what this is a list of though. We're going to the game and plannig on coming to the tailgate. Has anyone decided on the location? I heard someone mention going to the college parking lot.

[27atwater]

The RV will not be in the college lot, but that's where I'm gonna park and then walk over to the tailgate. There are 2 RV lots at the stadium and i'm guessing they'll try to get into the closest one. we may wanna PM cel #s since we won't be sure of WHICH lot until that day.

GSRelyea +3 to 5 others

So I'm guessing going half naked might not be the best idea. Although after reading about meck's no pants thing someone might want to make sure he get lots of beer in him so he won't feel the cold.

[GSRelyea]

I'm bringing jello and chips, etc. anything else need brought or just i just let the pros do their thing?

I will be bringing a grill & turkey fryer (wings) burgers, dogs, breads, beer ect.
I know a lot of people are coming from all over the place and cannot really bring stuff with them, so we will try and take care of as much as poss. and people can make some donations at the tailgate. If there are any local people that could bring a table or 2, that would be great.

[Disco Man]

Woooooooooooooo look out Buffalo, New York The Disco Man is on the way! It will be an all night party...I'm going to ride a keg of beer over the falls!

[BMF Bronco]

Make a detour up here to montana and pick my ass up to take with you!!!!!!!!!

[Meck77]

Buffalo?

burgers.

I made those several years ago when they came to town. We are looking forward to the this trip GS!

I think you have earned the title "East Coast" tailgate coordinator based on your efforts in NY and now the Buffalo game!

Time to start planning that bus dude!;) Thanks for leading the way on this tailgate!

Meck, see my comment to Disco!!!!!!!!!

[Meck77]

We're flying bro.....besides you are way up north. We haven't had OF1 in those neck of the woods yet. I was hoping next years Seatle game was up there so we had a reason to drive up to the northwest. We might just plan a summer trip up there to do some fishing/Broncos party. I really haven't travelled up that way much but it's something I want to do. I wonder if OF1 will fit in Taco's garage?

We will make it fit, do a little home improvement on his garage!

[broncobum6162]

Woooooooooooooo look out Buffalo, New York The Disco Man is on the way! It will be an all night party...I'm going to ride a keg of beer over the falls!


If Disco rides a keg over the falls, are there any predictions on how long it will take for him to hit bottom?

[broncobum6162]

Ok here goes............. This is sorta like the story of " If a tree falls in the woods and no one is there, does it make a sound?".


I guess it would take between 5..........10.........or 15 seconds for him to hit bottom. And if we can't see him hit bottom, does he make a sound?:dunk:

[MowrMowr]

I'll be there (by myself :()...I can bring a table.

.....how many beers before the game????? 5? 10? 15? 45?

[27atwater]

and don't forget, broncos will be in pittsburgh and cleveland next year. If I move to pitt, yer all invited over. I'll know next month if I'm relocating or not.

[broncobum6162]

.....how many beers before the game????? 5? 10? 15? 45?


You said you were drinking the keg, Disco. Divide the total ounces in the keg by 12 and that will give you the total amount of beers drank. I for myself can't wait to see that.:blowhorn:

[GSRelyea]

I'll be there (by myself :()...I can bring a table.

That would be great bro, much appreciated.

[GSRelyea]

You said you were drinking the keg, Disco. Divide the total ounces in the keg by 12 and that will give you the total amount of beers drank. I for myself can't wait to see that.:blowhorn:

US Kegs are 15.5 gallons (1984 ounces) 1984 / 12 = 165.33 beers which equals one very drunk disco man.

[NyBroncsFan77]

Okay for the record you all have way to much time or your hands to be determining the amount of gallons, ounces, actual beers in a whole keg. Just drink it and be Larry, Curly, or even Mo. Now I would say the 5, 10, 15 beers for Disco but after the Meadowlands I know it will probably double or maybe even triple that. It's going to be great seeing you guys again. The bus for the east coast is sounding like a superb idea just don't ask me for directions. GET A GPS!!! . Anyway only a week and a half away. If I didn't have a ticket and a way up already I have you pick me up in Syracuse GS. Even though I'd have to explain the 5, 10, 15 minute way to pick me up from the thruway. See you all up there Saturday afternoon. Grrr damn bus not leaving till almost noon.

[GSRelyea]

Okay for the record you all have way to much time or your hands to be determining the amount of gallons, ounces, actual beers in a whole keg.
Thought it was common knowledge........Too bad NY put those crazy deposit laws on kegs last year, otherwise it would have been a much easier way to bring all of the beer out there.

Some of the things I must have missed in Beer Drinking 101 while I was skipping that class pretending to be good at basketball.

[Ratboy]

Seems like a lot of people are going to be at the game. I don't know if we'll stop by the tailgate, but who knows. Glad to see some orange maners going.

[27atwater]

next steps?

how are we all gonna know which lot ay get into? i can PM my cel to you all if ya need it. just let me know.

[broncobum6162]

If I don't have to plow snow late on Thursday, Mrs. Bum and I will be taking off Thursday nite and hope to make a day of it in Buffalo. We are going to Niagra falls and maybe the Casino. Any one else up to it? Hope we play better than we just did on Sunday. Only one word for that one and thats
FUGLY. But............ a win is a win and KC and da Bolts losing makes it even better. Now for the post game celebration?....^5

[MowrMowr]

If anyone here plays poker, I'll be at Seneca Niagara Friday evening through early Saturday...I've heard it's got the best poker room in the area, and it's on the U.S. side.

[Meck77]

We'll be at the casino friday night. We're rolling with GS and his group.

[MowrMowr]

Cool...I wasn't sure if you guys were going there or one on the Canadian side. I'll have a #40 Curome Cox jersey on.

[Ratboy]

I'll be at one of the Canada casinos.

a disadvantage of only being 19 years old, can't gamble here.

[27atwater]

we won't be in town until saturday. friday is our travel day across PA to meet up w/ friends. see ya'll Saturday. Hope ya like vodka w/ yer Jello...50/50 mix. Usually just right. I'll bring plenty.

just follow the thread. when the gates open, look for the RV in lot 6. there may be upwards of 40 people if everyone finds there way to the RV. the broncofreak site also has folks coming over. hope to see ya there, CB24. We need to represent up in Buf.

[GSRelyea]

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v193/GSRelyea/i445x160_parking.jpg

We will be in Lot 6- it is an RV/Bus only lot. Best bet for everyone in cars is to park in lot #9 which is across the street. I just talked to the Heineken people, they will be set up in Lot 4 (which is next to the RV lot) that is a suite lot/ just for suite owners. They will have a bunch of kegs, and giveaways if anyone wants to swing over there it will be very close. Don't know exaclty what the RV looks like as I am picking it up Friday morning. It is a 31' rv and we will have Bronco flags flying and plenty of orange and blue to make it as easy to find as possible. PM me if you want to exchange cell phone #'s.

kick ass, looking forward to this, my tickets got here today, im in section 136 row 6, face value of 43 bucks and i paid 45 no complaints there.

[GSRelyea]

We are going to try and bring enough dogs, burgers & wings for everyone. If there is otherthings (chips, salads ect) that any of you want to bring that would be great as well. As far as beer goes, there are some coors/ heineken people coming with me and they will bringing a good amount of beer, but with a group this big, there is never enough. So if you bring beer that would be great, and if you could make it anything but anheuser-busch (bud,bud light, michelobe) that would be even better, I know they will be taking some pictures to put on various websites and cannot use pictures of people with beer they do not sell. Coors light/coors/heineken/amstel/keystone...are all great options

www.gotbeer.com - this is who is bringing the beer, check out the site, there are some good looking coors girls on there.

I am pumped. not to worry. I will bring plenty of sides and stuff like chips, etc. I guess I gotta get like 3 or 4 bottles of vodka and a case of jello to feed this crew. this is gonna be nice.

[NyBroncsFan77]

Sounds like the party is gonna be on Friday. Damn am I gonna miss Neil Diamond? Next year I'm just freaking driving everywhere fack this bus crap, it's not worth it. Although I don't think I could've made it on Friday this time anyway to much stuff going on during the day and I still have to work that nice crap early morning shift. Have a good time and Drink one down for me on Friday. I will see you Saturday. I got the number of the contact written down and I'll pop it in my phone before I drive my sorry backdoor 5, 10, 15 miles wait actually it's almost 30 to Syracuse when I hit "The Rich" I'll give you buzz. Until then "Party on Dudes!!!"

This sounds like it is going to be great. My group of 10 will be coming in Friday night and plan on hitting several different tailgate parties but most of us will be going to this one.........

Are there other ones planned? All I know is it worked out pretty good in KC when we got the word out about what lot to park in. Broncos fans just kept coming in. I'm hoping there will be other Broncos fans tailgating in Lot 6?

It might just be a block party in the snow! Stay in touch Jimmy.

Cool Jimmy. I definetly want to meet Pinto guy. He's on Joe Cahn's list of tailgates to visit. http://www.madbbs.com/users/philster/Pinto.htm

I think the guy cooks off the hood of his car? He says if you can't find it in the hardware store it shouldn't be at the tailgate....LMFAO!!!!!!!!

Weather doesn't look too bad for Saturday. Friday morning out there will be messy, not looking forward to driving across I-90 with that storm coming right at us. Broncobum, looks like you could be in for a long trip as well coming from Indy on Thursday night.

Friday (24 hours): Snow showers possible. Highs in the mid 30s and lows in the mid 20s.
Saturday (24 hours): Snow showers. Highs in the low 30s and lows in the mid 20s.

No mention of wind in the report, hope to god that stays true.

[27atwater]

we're supposed to get an ice storm here thursday night/friday AM, but should be clear and in the mid 30s by noon. Hope so, gotta drop the kids off across state w/ my folks before we head to buf.

Any idea of how much snow we might be looking at? I know it snows alot up there. I guess there are different types of snowstorms right? Lake effect vs a regular snow storm?

Out here in Colrado we just have snow.:~ohyah!:

[27atwater]

http://www.johnnyroadtrip.com/schedules/nfl_future_afcw.htm

decent link for future schedules.

lake effect is NO JOKE. It is unpredictable and can cause some crazy $hit. From my understanding, there already is plenty of snow and a steady downfall is expected most of the week. No major storms, but lots of white overall. The roads should be good cuz they know what they are doing up there. I'll try and get exact numbers for ya.

[27atwater]

DIRECTIONS FROM THE NY STATE THRUWAY:

take the Orchard Park exit off of the thruway and turn left after the toll booths. Stay straight for a couple of lights and turn right JUST before the big Mall. Ya can't miss it. Go past the mall for a mile or so and you will come to an intersection which has about 5 roads or so. It's not yer typical 4 stop intersection. One of those roads to the left is Abbott Road/Jim Kelly Blvd. Take that road and it will bring you right between lots 9 and 6. Cars in 9, RVs in 6 and we're good to go.

Again, I always go into that mall to get situated, etc. prior, so if anyone wants to meet up there and caravan in, some of ya have my cel and others can PM me for it.

[chadta]

what time are you planning on being at the mall atwater ? that sounds like a good idea to me.

I hope everybody likes spicy food, im bringing a batch of my world famous buffalo balls. Probally gonna grab 2 cases of blue at the duty free on the way across the border too.

[27atwater]

we're leaving about noon...so 2:30 or 3 if the weather is OK.

[MowrMowr]

seriously. I always go to cincy (except last year due to birth of 2nd child) and the other 3 are short drives for me.

next year too cuz my folks 1 hour from pitt AND clev...right in the middle. you all will definitely have to come back out to one of those next year. I'm thinking the pitt one may be a monday nighter. It's also looking like the other away opponent will be NE, which is also doable.

[Meck77]

A guy on the Broncos board said he has two tix for 25-30 bucks for this game. Unreal.

If you need tix to this game might be worth a pm to him.

Right now, I'm looking at Cleveland for the away game of 2006....that's unless, they have to go back to the Medowlands for the Jets, then that'll be the game....both depend upon the time of year.

I think it's safe to say the game in Denver from here on out is the KC game.

Yup, Mrs. Bum and I have been in deep discussion as to whether we will be making that trip w/ all the ice and snow they are forcasting on Friday. Leaving Thursday is now out of the question because I'll be up all nite tonight plowing snow for my accounts so that means Friday will be spent driving in the nasty shiat. We will be making a final decision Thursday am as to whether we will be coming or not. Bummer..........

Out here in Colrado we just have snow.:~ohyah!:

Living in Chicago, I can tell you that Northwest Indiana and Southwest Michigan (the "snow belt") can get anywhere from 8 to 15 inches when Chicago only gets 3 inches of snow because they're on the east side of Lake Michigan. Hell, they can get 5 to 8 inches of snow when it's bone dry in Chicago. Chicago to Northwest Indiana is only 40 miles away from each other. I hope this answers your question about lake-effect snow.

Are you guys tailgating on Friday too. My wife and I will definitely be there Saturday. What time is everyone starting Saturday? This is going to be great. I'm so used to going to road games and not meeting any other Broncos fans (although there's always some in the stands.)

[Meck77]

Well GS is the man with the RV. Disco and I are flying in friday evening. GS was mentioning that we might park the RV in the lot Friday night or roll it in Saturday sometime. I think he mentioned sometime by noon. We'd watch the early games from the lot. Game isn't til 8:30am so our usual start time of 8:00am is pushing it....

Its up to GS but if we could set up by around noon I think we'd be in great shape. :yep:

[i4jelway7]

well looks like the girlfriend and I will be driving up from VA on Friday night early Saturday morning, it's a 9hr drive, any help on which way we should go would be appreciated especially w/ the bad weather that is expected...

[27atwater]

I PMd ya elway. if it's not too out of the way, get yerself on I79 North and then near Erie, Pa, get on I-90 east. all highway. roads thru PA otherwise are not as well maintained. you'll get smaller routes and slower traffic. hope it helps. see ya saturday. Ice storn in the report for thursday night/friday AM, but should be clear by noonish friday.

[27atwater]

my buddy says he wants to bring chilli. does the RV had a way to keep it heated?

[broncobum6162]

Sorry to say but Mrs. Bum and I will not be making the trip after all. Didn't want to chance the ice and snow thru Ohio and we mad the decision about 9 am this morning. Hope everyone has a great time and we wil miss spending the weekend w/ everyone.hmmm... hmmm...

sorry to hear that man. enjoy the game in the comfort of yer own home.

Very understandable bum...That was the reason for me deciding not to drive of1 to SD. Too many issues with the bus now and the weather is probably going to suck right around Christmas all the way thru Colorado and New Mexico on our way to SD.

The weather is definetly going to be rought from Indiana to Buffalo. I'm just hoping the flights will be ok getting in and out of there at this point.

Enjoy the holidays bum!

[i4jelway7]

any updated weather info would be appreciated.. I'm still trying to decide if we are going to drive up w/ the weather being bad... we are in Va and we got hit with ice & snow today... so I'm not so confident driving a honda civic all the way to orchard park w/ the threat of snow & ice... I've tried to get a SUV rental and every rental car place is sold-out of them...

Thanks Meck, we had been planning on this since before the NY Giants game. If you remember I backed out originally on that one because we got tickets to the Buffalo game. Sure am glad I ended up making the trip w/ you guys. Still sucks about the weather tho. I told Mrs. Bum that I may have to make a trip to Denver for a playoff game if we host one. Now THAT would be awesome.;D ;D

[i4jelway7]

well looks like we have had a change of plans, we are no longer driving we are going to fly out of Greensboro Sat. morning, we will be in buffalo at 10:00am... now what's the info on the tailgate... meck77 you going to be there?

the temps are rising already and the ice is already settled to rain in my area. friday drive after 11AM looks like it should be OK. Should get to 38 degrees for us...may have dodged a bullet there.

Sorry to hear you won't make it Bum. I won't be risking it either. I'm going to have some friends over for the Giants game and the Broncos game.

Go Broncos.

Weather Reports as seen from the eyes of a crazy central New York Driver. AS of now 8am est. The road are terrible but are being attended to by the diligent plow crews. All night from about 9pm till around 2am we had freezing rain then the temps warmed up and it became just rain the roads where really shiny. Then after my 4:40am all heck broke loose and at 7am there was 3 inches of snow on the car. The weather reports on the radio called for atleast 2 to 3 more inches minimum before stopping around noon or 1pm. It's then suppose to start snowing again later tonight. Saturday's cast is temps around 35 with light possible flurries. Sunday's forecast is about the same. I was suppose to drive up to Syracuse today but looks like it's an early bedtime for me gotta get my nerves up for the Must do drive of tomorrow. I thought driving through Mt. Pocono in rainy foggy weather was bad. What I won't do to see our boys Play.

Sorry you can't make it Bum, thought that trip looked a little dicey for you. I just drove into the office an hour ago (20 miles), roads were not too bad around here, everyone was doing about 40 mph. It seems to be warming up pretty quickly, so I don't anticipate to much of a problem. We are planning to leave around 12:30-1:30, waiting for people to get out of work. We will you all out there- to all those traveling...... slow and steady wins the race.

[27atwater]

weather is now beautiful down here in central PA. now they say it should get up to 45 degrees. I'm leavin at noon for western PA.

hey gs, im gonna need to toss my meatballs in the oven in the rv for a half hour or so to warm them up when i get there, hope thats ok.

As for the weather, buffalo always gets hammered by lake effect snow, with all the weather systems going by i would expect there to be tonnes of snow, as gs said slow and steady wins the race.

It is not a race tho so everybody just drive safe, ill see you all there tommorrow, i think with the snow we are gonna leave here at like 10 am, we have a few errands to run along the way, see you in lot 6.

You can start a whole new Thread for pics if you want to.

Now on to business. The boys and girls of The OrangeMane crew showed up in style again. We rock that house and were there when our boys needed us. I want to give my shout outs to all the Candian fans who were there. We rocked that R.V. all day long. The cold couldn't stop us from showing what Broncos fan can do. From all the way up in my 5th row from the top of the stadium seat. You could see sea's of Orange and although some of it was Hunting Gear Most of it was Broncos Country. We invaded the house and took ourself a piece of the pie to come one game closer to the ultimate goal of a Home playoff game and a bye week. (for today GO COLTS). I had another great time and met some awesome people. I got a couple more nicknames and was allowed to snap some good pictures. I can't wait till the next one. All I can say is

GOOOOO BROOOONCOOOOOS!!!!!

[scrap]

Thanks For a Great Time Guys! What a Great turnout, met some very cool fans, had to sign up on the board.

[Bronco Billy]

It was fun meeting some of the orangemaners at the tailgate (Meck, Disco, GS, Chad, 27Atwater, etc.). It's great to tailgate with Bronco fans at away games. There were plenty.

The Bills fans left us alone for the most part. Some fans were throwing snowballs, but not necessarily at us. However, there were more than a few "F the Broncos", "F Denver", and F all you Denver Biotches." Most Bills fans left by the 4th.

Great time once again......we did it right and the Broncos did what they needed to do! Hope all of you made it back ok, we got back to Denver around 1230pm local time. Went to bed at 400am got up at 600am to go to the airport! On a side note Sterling Sharpe was on my flight from Buffalo to Philly. It was great meeting all of you again and some of you for the first time. Wow......Buffalo has some issues with it's fans, stadium, and the yellow coats.

It was a pleasure meeting more die hard Broncos fans in the lot this weekend! I'd like to make a special shout out to GSrelyea/his brother and his friends from www.gotbeer.com (pretty sure they helped with the beer). If it wasn't for GS and his bro getting that RV it would have made a buffalo tailgate very difficult. Also Mowr Mowr stepped up with canopy and tables. That canopy basically saved our asses from the blowin snow.

To all the folks who brought food it was tasty. 27Atwater I think that was your chilli. Great stuff! Chadata those meatballs had to be some of the hottest piece of meat to ever come out of Canada. They were excellent. NY77 thanks for running the camera again.

I hate to start rattling off names as I don't want to forget anyone but it was just great to see familar faces again and meet new Broncos fans. There really is a great representation of Broncos fans from Canada let me tell you. I heard there was atleast 15 of them tailgating not to far from us. We sent a representative out that way to give them some cards.....lol Hopefully someone from their group will take the time to register up.

All went well except for the fact that the Bills have no clue what parking lot is what. Every security guard seemed to have a different reply when asked "Where is lot 6" I have a feeling there were quite a few people who just flat out gave up even looking for the tailgate with the cold weather but it seems as if most of the Broncos fans found it but not necessarily by knowing where it was. We kept sending out people to look for missing Broncos fans.

What is pretty amazing is that when you see someone at an airport travelling to a Broncos game the odds are pretty darn good that they know where the tailgate is...I ran into more than one set of Broncos fans on the road and they said "Yep lot 6 we know where to go!". Between all 3 boards working together there is no reason that any of us should ever have a problem finding a tailgate to join whether OF1 is there or not.

I'm sorry but we are behind on getting pics up. I still haven't had a chance to get the Ravens pics off the camera yet. I'm hoping by tomorrow tomorrow night we can have the Raves and Bills pics up.



Go Broncos!

I'm sorry I missed the tailgating in the lot, I had every intention of getting to it... I did get to meet disco and meck77 in the stadium on the 30yd line field level seats... what happened to you guys?... you all were there for a few plays and the next thing I know you guys are gone.. I would also like to give a shout out to 2 cool ass canadians that we met at the Broncos hotel.. we gave em a ride to the stadium and back to the hotel and they took us around ralph wilson and through some of the tailgating... we never did get to lot 6 or 14... I do have to say that a lot of the Bills fans were ok but there were definately some HATERS... everytime I went to the bathroom I got harrassed all the way to the bathroom and back... no big deal.. but sheesh the way some of them were acting you would have thought the broncos and bills were division rivals..

Should have told him he made an arse outa himself doing the game.

That was a great time out in snowy/cold Buffalo. Nothing better than a 10 hour tailgate with some bronco faithfull. Just wanted to thank everybody that came, it was great meeting all of you. As others have said, it is tough to remember everyones names, mostly due to the large amount of beer/jello/punch/tequilla ect. Meck & Disco it has been a pleasure getting to know you both, you guys def. represent. Slowly but surley I am learning the tailgate scene thanks to your help. Bungy cords can hold anything up, you can never have enough tarps, and 50 yd line 1st row seats can be found if you really try. MowrMowr you came through big time, the tables and canopy really saved us. Not to mention the laptop connection to get the tailgate lot 6/14 word out and the sausages that everyone seemed to rave about. Chadta with his meatballs that seemed to send everyone running for a cold one. 27atwater with the chili and the JELLO shots- There is always room for J-E-L-L-O. Nybroncsfan77 rode a bus w/ a bunch of Bills fans and got there in 5-10-15.... Went out and found bronco fans and directed them to where we all were, all while taking tons of pictures. Watch out for that THO- All the Canadien bronco fans that represented it was good to meet all of you ---A. And to our good friends from Gotbeer.com (Dave) and Heineken (Chrissy) Thanks for the brew, I think all of us that talked to you after the game know that you enjoyed the open bar in the luxery box. Esp. Dave who turned into Evil Dave.... gotta watch out for those space........... Last but not least thanks to my brother for driving out there while we sat in the back drinking and playing cards. Not to mention all the setup/take down of the tailgate and cleaning of the RV. All of you would appreciate him as much as I- if you knew how lazy I am. Looking forward to seeing you all again in the near future.

I cut a little deal and secured some seats at the 50 yard line row 1. :thumbsup: It didn't take much just $20 bucks and a little charm with some bills fans and the good fortune that 4 Bills fans didn't bother to use their seats. We didn't plan on leaving our seats but when the game wasn't going our way I ventured down to behind the Broncos bench and found an opportunity to upgrade. I ran back and grabbed the rest of the crew.

Great to meet you Meck, and I can't let my boy 27Atwater take credit for MY blocks of chilli, lol!!

wow.. that's great.. I didn't know what happened to you guys, I figured you guys just went wondering off.. it was nice to meet you guys if it was just for a second... I hope to see you guys again, this time at the actual tailgate

[27atwater]

i was gonna get you yer credit, scrap.

for future reference. Jello shots are EASY to conceal for stadium consumption.

[chadta]

jello shots ? **** rob got 2 cans of beer in, what do you think we wore those big boots for :~ohyah!: next time maybe hell drink some instead of just spilling it on the poor kid infront of us.

[27atwater]

they kicked our legs at our gate. they gave the guy behind us 3 chances and he finally gave up and turned it all over.

I was looking for you guys on TV... didn't see you but something like that was what I was watching for - that or something similiar to your Chiefs seats...

That was me man. My boy Tim and I took them over, but they didn't seem to interested. They were pretty blitzed. We walked into the game with those fools, and I wouldn't be surprised if they were taken out by security by the end of the first quarter.

Meck, it was nice to meet you man. I would have liked to hang around a little longer, but it was about an hour long trip from our little "fort" to your RV and back. We stopped by every group of Bronco fans we saw. Hopefully you guys can make it back to the east coast next year for atleast one of the North games.

Right on. Good meeting you as well. I hear you about the long walk around there. Those lots were pretty darn big and spread out. Just because somebody is wearing orange doesn't mean you necessarily want to tailgate with them. That's the beauty of the Mane is that you can get to know people online and meet up at a game down the road.

Thanks for coming by!
