Talking with numerous fans and presidents of various Bills Backers groups, we all decided on three road trip games for those on the left coast and of course, everyone else.

Those games include: Tampa Bay, New Orleans and San Diego.

The Florida chapter will be hosting the Tampa game, the San Diego backers in California and Pinto Ron and myself decided to host and put on the New Orleans game.

We decided not to have on in Oakland, gee, wonder why.... So, for all of you transplanted die hards, those are your choices! You have no excuses ;). Hope to see you all at one of the games.

Go Bills

Count me in for the Bucs Rick. I am a 3 hour and 15 minute drive to Tampa. Would love to party with you guys. I know the town (I went to University there), I lived there for 7 years and know all the party spots (Ybor City!!!).

Ybor city is for teenagers. Travis Henry will probably be there.

Rick. Are you going to be setting something up for the Tampa trip? Both coastalPT and I know the area like the back of our hands. We could help out a lot. That is if coastal is interested and willing.

New Orleans is the best and I recommend it to anyone who hasn't been there. My Wife and I went back in '01 when the Jets played the Saints(the Kyle Turley helmet throwing game) and it was one of the best weekends I have ever had.

What im going to do is help out the Bills clubs that are going to run the get togethers at TB and SD. In NO, from what I know, there isn't a backers club so that's where Pinto Ron and I will come in.

If anyone want's to help and donate some leg work and such to any of these get togethers, it would be appreciated.

Maybe I can set up a temporary forum just for next seasons road games or we can take over the Bills Backers clubs one. I can create and stick three threads, one for each city and it's parties.

If anyone has additional ideas, please feel free to jump on in.

Right now, we'll need to find a hotel in downtown N.O. that has a hotel bar, that's close to downtown and is Bills friendly. Meaning they'll have to work with us on discount room rates and such. The one I organized in Arizona offered fans some good rates and was a 4-5 star hotel, really nice, next to the stadium and close to downtown Tempe.

Speaking of Arizona, the Bills play AZ in 2008, I'll be organizing that road trip game weekend, I fully expect to see you all here in Glendale, Arizona at the Cardinals brand new stadium! ;)

My wife and I will definitely be at the Tampa game. Don't know about the weekend party schedule, as it depends upon my own football schedule, but the tailgate party on Sunday is a definite stop for us.

Pete, Ybor has become the hangout on weekends for Tampa's "finest" youths. The area still has some decent spots, but it's basically not even worth taking the trip up there because of the number of teeny-boppers who roam the streets and fight after midnight.

they also put this mall in there called Centro Ybor. Its done up to look exactly like Coconut Grove in Miami.

Its missing one thing though... Miami!

Im creating three separate threads for the three 2005 road trip games. They'll be stuck at the top of the forum as this thread will be too.

If you want to help, have ideas or questions, please post in the appropriate thread.

Go Bills!

Man I can't wait till you guys make it over to the Central part of the country like to either a Rams game, or a Chiefs Game. I can make it to both of those. NO is about 10 hours away for me so won't be able to make it.
