We must be taking it over. Rooms are nowhere near as cheap as they've been in years past. Easily 35% higher than what we paid last year.

So, where's everyone staying in Cleveland? We ended up with Marriott, Key Center. One couple that we're getting together with is in the Hyatt Arcade.

Speaking of BG, I must have been under a rock this past week+. I didn't realize that they had crapped the bed that badly. A week ago we were looking to this Friday being for all of the regular season marbles.

I'd take Arizona over Boise, even though we had a great time. Something new.

They don't have to be pretty.

I was thinking the exact same thing.

This is a real good point. We need the students that are on this board to make sure that ALL students are loud and rowdy this Friday night. It's a huge game and we need AA rockin.

Excellent way to wrap up this thread. Now it should be locked.

Wow! Sounds like a well grounded young man that really appreciates what he's going to have available to him. I really hope he comes to Buffalo. The mentoring that he can get from our coaches will provide further life guidance for him.

Going to Dualing Pianos tonight with a group. Really hoping they have the game on in the front bar.

Same here. We have 8 going down. Usually only get a room for Friday night and then add Saturday night if needed, but decided to do Friday and Saturday this year. It's a good city to spend time in even if, God forbid, our teams aren't playing on Saturday.

Isn't it amazing that we're having this conversation? After all of last year's seniors graduating, who honestly thought we'd be in a position to be having this discussion.

Head North on Niagara Falls Blvd. Check out Sawyer Creek Hotel at N.F. Blvd. and Nash Road in Wheatfield. Old time saloon type of place. Awesome wings.

Funny part about it is, the now traditional pre game final dunk was Graves last night, and he whiffed.

Good for her. You're there to cheer on your team, not for a quiet night out. Scream, shout, stomp... My wife gets the stink eye from some around us at the football games because she has a rather large cowbell. How do we counter that? The couple next to us doesn't seem to mind it, so we bought them one too. If you want quiet, go to the opera.

I agree, but they always have somebody there to take your place. I've never waited less than 45 minutes. Doesn't matter what time of day. The Beef on Weck is well worth the wait.

It has been confirmed. Southern Tier Brewing is OUR gathering spot this year.

You remember correctly, but I'm not sure I agree with you. If they can pack it the way they do while only accepting cash, why pay the percentages that they'd be charged by the credit card companies.

Another one that is not a "Buffalo Style" in my opinion. They don't use Franks. They make their own hot sauce. Still very good. Problem there, is getting in. It's always packed. If I do manage to get in, I'm getting the Beef on Weck. I haven't found a better place for that.

People leaving early are being a bit rude to those that stay, if they're getting up and leaving during play.

Still wings. Just not Buffalo style. Don't get me wrong. My favorite are still done with straight Frank's Red Hot. No butter needed.

We're on page 23 of this thread. Coincidence? I don't think so. Put my 2 cents in for #23 Oh sure, I hit "post" and find that it flips to page 24 of the thread. Still say we end up at 23.

For regular flavors (hot, med, mild) I agree. For flavors other than that, Elmos takes it. Grilled Cajun with some hot sauce added is my favorite.

Yes, but it needs to be 6K+ that are making noise, and not sitting on their hands.

I'm not able to attend tonight's game but hope to be able to watch on TV. I'm counting on the crowd to be extra loud tonight (certainly louder than usual) so that I can hear it on the boob tube (can we still call it "tube?"). When the cheerleaders hold up their signs that say Make Noise or Get Loud, do it like it's your job.
