DaEaster Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 We’re going to head over from the U.K. for our first game this year with our 7 year old - he can’t wait! Are there better areas of the stadium to sit with kids (other than the booze free zone!!) #gobills 4 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

October is usually a very nice month, especially if you get in before the leaves fall (second, third week). Leaf peeping is big in New York State. The Bills Game Day Guide @Foxx linked to should help you with all things Bills in the area, but feel free to ask any questions you may have, game day or non-game day wise. 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But not always. Went to a Bills Jest game in October one time & it was 40-ish & raining. It was absolutely miserable. The Bills played as bad as the weather that day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan McCormack Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 Hi, Don’t know if this is the right place to post this, so sorry if it’s not. I’m a Bills fan from Scotland and been a fan since 1989 though never been to Buffalo for a game. Was supposed to come over for my 60th birthday last year but couldn’t due to COVID but managed to get two tickets this morning for the Steelers game in October. Will be in Buffalo for a few days and was looking for some advice. Regarding hotels would it be better to stay somewhere in downtown or somewhere south of the stadium for better/easier access to the game ?, and would I need to hire a car and park near the stadium or can you get a bus or Uber easily enough ?, Thanks for any advice you can give me. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't help a whole lot, but we're glad to have you here. Welcome. I was there a few years ago before Covid and had a rental car. Based on my memory of getting in and out of the parking areas, I can't imagine how crazy I would have been if I had to wait for my Uber driver to show up. But others may have better suggestions, 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is an Uber lot (all the stadiums have one), but using Uber for game day? You may want to rent a car, see the local sites including Niagara Falls, and tailgate in one of the off-site lots before the game (full Buffalo Bills game day experience!) Read through this game day experience guide. It has a lot of information (we will be adding more this summer) including hotels, lots, restaurants, etc. I hope you have a fantastic time!

Beer__League__Hockey Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 My degenerate friends always Uber in from various places, you just have to get there a bit early/it's a bit unpredictable. Getting back to the hotel will take some time after the game ends any which way you travel to the stadium, and using Uber sometimes can speed that up. But there are always Uber drivers around the stadium on a Bills gameday, definitely a good option for a visitor. Plus you can tailgate and have some fun without worrying about the long arm of the law. I would recommend staying somewhere close by (Orchard Park, Hamburg, etc), stay outside of the city of Buffalo. No need to have to deal with a longer gameday drive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely looking forward to early game day experience I don't know the restrictions for getting in and out of Canada as it pertains to COVID (I think you're okay if you're vaccinated), but if you can cross over and then get back, I highly recommend zip lining at the falls. It's a little bit like honeymoon sex in that you have to wait a while and it's over too quickly, but it's such a great view and experience, it's worth it.

Lol 🤣, That looks really cool and would love to do that. Had two UK COVID vaccinations and a booster so hopefully wouldn’t have any restrictions entering Canada Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
