I'm posting this to see if any NY, NJ, CT or MA members might be interested in this game. A co worker is putting together a trip to Buffalo on 12/23/07 to see the Giants play the Bills. We have a estimated price of $112.00 per person. This would include round trip transportation (Albany to Buffalo) and the game ticket. It is a 1:00pm game and a tailgate party will be waiting when we arrive. This is being organized by employees of the NY State Emergency Management Office, but all are welcome. Our regional office in Buffalo is putting together the tailgate party and we will probably ask for everyone to throw in $10.00 ea. to cover food and beverage. If anyone is interested, send me a PM with your email and I will contact you directly.

I'll check with the guys planning this and let you know in a couple days. I'm not sure if we get discounts on the tix through the bus company or pay face value.

I just checked the Bills website, face value on tix is $46.00-$70.00. So the most it would cost you is $70.00 if we got great seats. I sent an email to the person working with the bus company, should hear back from him tomorrow. I'll bring you a Giants jersey to wear if you decide to come.

What are the odds I could meet you at your house and possibly crash there that night after the game to save myself a few hours drive.

You are welcome to crash at my house. You'll have to sleep in the living room but you'll have a 57" TV to keep you company.

I should have finalized information by next Friday. Once we have a better idea of how many people are going, we can reserve the bus. I'll post here again next week when I have an exact dollar amount and due date for the money.

Update: after 1 week, we only have 6 confirmed fans who want to attend this game. It's the day before x-mas eve and many people already have holiday plans. It's not looking good. We will wait another week to see if can get a few more involved, if not, it will be cancelled. Note to Shane: no way to get you a ticket only from the bus company (Trailways). I can get you a ticket, but you wouldn't be sitting with the group. If we get enough people, total cost is $131.00 ($119.00 ticket & bus plus $12.00 insurance).
