The Official Raiders @ Bills - Sept 21 - Who's going??

[shiftee]

I plan on going to this game. I'm in Toronto and this would be the 1st ever NFL game I've gone to (I've always said my 1st game would HAVE to be a Raiders game).

Who else plans on going to this one??

How far in advance do tickets usually go on sale?

You can get tix at BuffaloBills.com - Buffalo Bills when they do go on sale. The only problem going to Buffalo is the fans are completely retarded. Bring freinds and watch your back. I may go if a bunch of people from the site are in town. I'll post to this thread if something comes up.

i am going to that game can't wait

I'm going too! It will also be my first NFL game. I'm VERY excited. I can't believe I finally get to watch the Raiders play live!

I was flipping through a Bills board to try and find out if it's safe to cheer for the Raiders at their stadium...but I'm guessing not.

There is a 'family corner' where they don't allow drinking or swearing but it's very far away from the field. But according the message board I was snooping around fans of the visiting team will often sit there because they know they won't be hassled. If that's what I have to do to watch the Raiders in peace then that's what I'll do!

If anyone's been to a Bills game and cheered for the visiting team can you give us some insight?

They were given the Donkey fans there last year a hard time... but who wouldnt???

The Raiders and Bills arent really considered rivals, Im sure people will have some vulgar remarks about your raider gear, but it shouldnt be that bad

[Raider Ran]

Good representing guys Too much going on with the planning for the Annual Tailgate here and planning for New Orleans in Oct to make this trip.

[NewYorkRaider]

There is a chance that I will be going to this game. Before the schedule came out, I had heard that the New England Raider Boosters were planning to go to this game. They are a great group of guys from the Rhode Island / Massachusetts / Connecticut area (primarily). I have been to a couple of their tailgates in the past, and have no problem saying that they do an excellent job. I'll have to see if this is still their planned destination.

I should also mention that I read that tickets go on sale July 19th. Seems like a million years from now...

Thanks I was wonderin when they went on sale

You bringing any other Raider fans with you?

[desman]

I'll be there too. Been to Buffalo numerous times and it can get a little rough. The "Rock Pile" in the endzone under the scoreboard is where it really gets rowdy. Atleast we won't be wearing a "Phins jersey. Then I'd be scared...LOL

Will be Silver & Black head to toe and will represent!!

[desman]

Anybody coming in for the game from out of town, I suggest the Adams Mark Hotel. Very nice hotel and reasonably priced. $100 a night if my memory serves me. About a $25 cab ride to the game. This is where I'll be staying and it would be great if we could fill the hotel with our colors!!!

I'm bringing my fiance. She doesn't like to watch sports on TV but loves to watch them live so I can't really call her a Raider fan. I've tried EVERYTHING to change that but I've had no luck...and somehow she still got a ring out of me.

I won't be staying in a Hotel, we'll stay at her Uncle's place in Welland (on the Canadian side) on Saturday night and drive back on Sunday night because we both need to be back for work on Monday.

When you guys get tickets let me know. I'll see if I can get them close by just in case!

I'm planning on being there....I'll be stayin at the Marriott in Niagara, but if theres a chance we can own a hotel for the week....im down for that...

Tell me your tickets, and I'll try to get close also....safety in numbers....LOL

I'll be there 100% I've had this game circled on my calendar since September 2002 when PBuch picked off Bledslow for a TD, I was going nuts harassing the Bills fans
