Years ago, I saw the Buffalo Bills in the preseason three times in a span of for years or so. The first game was played in Toronto against the Colts in 2010, I believe. Then I saw the Bills against the Steelers (think it was 2012) and the Lions (in 2013). would finally be in the Super Bowl again this postseason, their end came earlier than I wanted or expected.
I have been wanting to go to another one ever since, particularly during the Josh Allen era. Seems like it should have been easier even than when I went to those games back then, once my parents moved to a town not even two hours away from Buffalo (on a good day).
Yet somehow, I had not managed to make it to a single game. Always tried to, but it just never quite worked out. The games were scheduled right in the middle of a work block last year, requiring me to need to use up several days off that were getting a bit too rare for my comfort by that point. Other years, it as something similar.
This time, I was determined to make it happen.
I saw that there was a preseason game between the visiting Panthers and the Bills which fell on a weekend this summer. But it was a weekend off from my main job. If I could take off a couple of days - and this time I actually had a few extra in my pocket - and find a way out of my weekend job, finally I would manage to get to a game.
So I worked it out. Took the days off during the weekdays required to make a mini vacation. Then I found some decent seats at a reasonable price. And I was on my way.
Finally, another Bills game.
