I'm sixty six years old, born and raised in Buffalo, now living for the past twenty seven years in Cleveland. I love the Bills and aways have and always will. I've tailgated MANY times right along where those guys are, many times. LOTS of great people and lots of good times, even in losing seasons. I went to my last Bills game probably five seasons ago - as even though my nephew has season tickets (he's also in Cleveland) I just haven't had the opportunity to go to too many but now that I'm retired hopefully that'll change - when I had access, well I should say "we", as in the whole group of us, to the "family and friends" lot at the stadium as my cousin through marriage has a step niece who's married to one of the players. I met him that morning of the game at his house and was blown away by how incredibly welcoming and nice he was. The Bills won that game, and although it was in late September, the temperatures were in the low nineties. It was just a riot all around with the whole atmosphere being like a party. The whole "mustard" man thing was something I'd never heard about before, as my nephew and a few others from our group wen to see the guy. I don't quite get it, nor do I get the whole smashing tables thing either, but what great fans. I'm in Cleveland now, as I mentioned, and they also have some DIE HARD fans as well, and although this will sound "homer" of me, they're not quite as passionate as Buffalo's fans. Go Bills because IF, and yes, it's a HUGE IF, but if the Bills beat the Chiefs today I truly think this is their year.
Hope your treatment is going well :). Your last video before this was incredibly inspiring. It’s great to see someone enjoying life while going through a huge life change.
Heartwarming after the loss yesterday. I'm in CA, but been a fan ever since the CA boy Allen joined them and I've never looked back. When my kids get a little older I'm going to spend sometime out there in Buffalo.
I grew up in Buffalo during the 4 Super Runs. There was sadness, loss, love and family. There was never, not one single minute not by one single person, a thought of abandoning the Bills. Viva Los Bills, Jim Kelly 2024.
Hello Gareth!. I did not know you are originally from Buffalo, NY! Go Bills, yes I am born and raised in Buffalo. I love following your channel, and saying my prayers for you that everything works out. ❤️🙏
I just adore you Gareth. Hoping for the best for your recovery from that bite..... Great to see you enjoying the BB Mafia and all the hoopla!!! You ROCK! Jake
Good to see you have made a complete recovery!!! You can start your life again. Take it and run! You now know how much precious life is. It will also have made you a better person for all around you as will be more sympathic about the struggles of others. Or when your partner says, i am not feeling well. You will truly understands what that means and you will have a more fulfilling relationship. i kept checking to see how you were doing as you hadn't loaded anything since your last video. Glad all is well and it is behind you.
Those words came back to haunt the Bills again! “ Wide Right “ You can’t beat the Community of WNY. People have always helped out and Supported the teams of Buffalo!
Not in Orchard Park lol. They are very rated here. Extremely rated. Bills games are without question the best NFL game experience, doesn’t matter what team you love either. Everyone should go once, just to see the absurdity lol.
100% Bills Mafia, home games, tailgating and the entire environment is so good for our mental health. Football season bring so much joy, so happy you were able to make it to a game. GO BILLS! 💙🦬❤️
They’re investigating the Buffalo vs chiefs game! Because I heard that they (NFL) were going to investigate the game, because they think the refs were cheating so the chiefs would win. I guess one of the refs was posting something insinuating that he was a big chiefs fan and that he tries to help them win when he officiates their games. I guess they’re looking at the second Kelce touch down and the pass interference call in the fourth quarter.
Hi, bills fans from Scranton here. We are trying to figure out the logo on hats during the game in the last 5 minutes of the video. It looks like a bear w the red banner stripe going through it. Same as our buffalo, but a bear I think? Can anyone tell us about this?
It's good to see the fans in Buffalo and more than just the one Bills fan I had the unfortunate time of meeting in San Francisco. He came to Candlestick Park for a road game in San Francisco against the Niners. I have had season tickets most of my life. He sat in the row in front of me and was very drunk and being a jerk to everyone around him. He was constantly shouting at people everytime the Bills gained any yards, and every first down he would run up to the guy behind me and shout at him and poke him in the chest. When we told him he needed to calm down he responded with "F*** you". Right before half time he was pretty well hammered and decided to run up and poke the guy behind me again, and this time he shouted "how you like that you...." and then the N word at him to cap it off. The guy shoved him, and he fell over the seat and landed on my wife. Her soda spilled on him, and he decided to call her a dumb b***h and grabbed her around the throat and cocked back to punch her in the face. (He didn't get a chance to finish that) He was carried out right after that. I learned not to judge a group of people by one person, but that was like the worst visiting fan experience I ever had. Made me hold a bit of a grudge against the Bills for a bit. It was very refreshing to see the fans all so nice and welcoming and down to earth folks and all the charitable stuff to scrub my brain of that one jerk. Made me want to experience a tailgate at Highmark the next time the Niners travel to NY and looked like a great time too. Great video man.
We are the best in the world and that’s an undebatable fact, not an opinion. Went to a Chiefs game in Arrowhead and I thought I was gonna die from boredom at the tailgate. Yea everyone was nice and friendly and the bbq was nice, but dear god it’s a tailgate not a funeral procession. I want barrel fires, I want insane people, I want snowball fights, I want broken tables and Pete’s cabinet pizza!
I hate the Bills with a passion. But Bills Mafia are some of the best people on earth. The tailgates are never ending fun and this video encapsulates the experience.
If I could recommend a place for your to travel it would be to the New Caledonia islands. I would love to go there one day. Im huge into reptiles and that group of islands provided one of the most kept geckos in captivity the crested gecko, the islands also have the biggest known gecko species in the world the leachianus gecko .
Hi Gareth of course you don't know me but, I'm currently suffering from some undiagnosed skin disease BELEIVE me everything you said on your las vid is so much I've been experiencing till today I'd like to dm you maybe you will be able to help me some how and I'm hoping your situation is better and you can fully recover from your nightmare.
I can sum this up like this [IF UR GOING STUPID YOU BETTER BE TOUGH!!! I DO BELIEVE THERE ARE TOUGH!!] but that combination doesn't help you win football games!!
I have been a huge Bills fan and attended games for over 50 years. I hate the whole "Bills Mafia" thing. I Especially hate that "pinto Ron" is held up as the face of this fan base. Ugh!
I love the documentary. Great job. I have an issue with the word Mafia, because what I have seen over my life across the US, not just in Buffalo,.. is the real life problems caused by actual mafia. They might cloak it as a 'family thing" or "this thing of ours"./// but the trouble is, modern Buffalo fans do not know how true and harmful it is in their own town. Bread and circus, when it creates a veil, must be examined just like anything else. Be truthful, and change the name,...Bills Fans is all that is needed, question where things come from, and where they take you in branding. Buffalo has no need for excessive branding...Mafia, is not a path for the wise. Humility is the end of that path, unnecessary displays of it.
Please stop!!!This type of thing is one of the biggest problems in America today!Just try and enjoy llife and stop trying to push your views on the world and I won't tell you how to live your life either. Lifes to short bud.
It’s Fans having fun, you should try having fun sometime, and if you want to learn about the largest organized crime syndicate this country has ever known I suggest reading Mafia Democracy written by a former made man
Pleaser stop !! Your thoughtless "fun" is costing a lot of people money and if you want to have "fun" for 32 to 36 hours per year, then it should not cost the rest of us $500,000,000 dollars, which was taken in a racist action by the mafia. Having fun, is a childish pursuit, and certainly a recommended thing , but it is better if not at the expense of other good people. If you like corruption and tax theft, then by all means, keep going. The biggest problem in this country is thoughtless people, following authoritarian gangs. I have no wish to tell you how to live, if you don't ask me to pay for it....Once you take my money, I have a say Stop It !!.@@steveoshei1819
Technically I believe the actual translation is "this thing of ours" but that is technical,...anyone who doesn't know what mafia means in real life,... doesn't follow the news or the judicial system. "This thing of ours" is a veiled ambiguous snicker, "don't say anything... is the intention,... never say it out loud, and perhaps the best thing Bills Fans can do if they feel strong as a group (they are) is to force the sale of the team to the fans and businesses of western NY. I would feel a tad better about giving a SINGLE business half a billion dollars of tax payer money if it stayed in NY. The NFL does not need our Tax money. The owner has already threatened to sell the team right after promising not to. Pegula and his ilk are an embarrassment to the state. The money he used to buy the team came from thousands of "now out of business" farmers across Pa,...and his intention is to frack NYS. Polluter, corrupt liar, and tax thief, is what I see...all made easy for him by actual mafia. Calling the fans mafia,... is one of the dumbest things I have seen in Western NY. The way the governor took that money from the most oppressed people in this lands history, and gave it to the most privileged , is heinous at the very least. Buy the team and get rid of the looters. Maybe give that money to the small farmers so we don't have to ship tomatoes from California or foreign countries....Its DUMB. There's a large portion of people who do not know how things work. And who benefits. @@kimtaylor3866

Tailgates are one of the most underrated activities in America.
Not in Orchard Park lol. They are very rated here. Extremely rated. Bills games are without question the best NFL game experience, doesn’t matter what team you love either. Everyone should go once, just to see the absurdity lol.
@axe2grind244 The fans can get a little rowdy, but overall, it's a great experience.
@@axe2grind244 as a non bills fan I can confirm this is true
