ralph wilson stadium

We moved back to Buffalo after a long hiatus. We have season tickets to the Bills. They only had end zone season tickets, so we splurged and bought the more expensive plaza level looking down across the goal line. What we like: covered seating out of the rain and snow; bar, restaurant and bathrooms 50' behind use; scoreboards and replay screens easily viewable; restaurant, bar and bathrooms behind us are only accessible to plaza level ticket holders; we park south of the stadium at a private residence for $10 and walk about 6/10ths of a mile giving us quick in and out; Bills bucks given to season ticket holders; two free tickets to one game for season ticket holders. We don't like: heaters above us are too hot and turned on when it is relatively mild outside; beers are $9 each, we don't have a quarterback.

Great place to watch a game. Site lines are very good. Recent renovations have made it even more fan friendly. There's an earlier comment from a Giants fan that commented the fan base in Buffalo is fractured between Giants and Steeler fans more than Bills fans, and that the games in Toronto draw a better Bills fan base. That is wholly inaccurate. If you go to a Bills game in "The Ralph", be prepared, it's one of the loudest stadiums in the NFL. Seattle, KC, then probably Buffalo as far as "fandemonium".

Bills fans have a soft spot for the Ralph, but it simply doesn't compare in amenities or gameday experience as other more modern stadiums. It's a concrete jungle. Tailgating is some of the best in the NFL, but getting out of the stadium after the game is horrible so plan to tailgate some more to wait it out before leaving.While visiting fans usually get the last word, the poor treatment from Bills fans is relentless and ruins the day. Pick another away game to see. Better stadiums, better weather, better treatment in most other NFL cities.

The renovations at Ralph Wilson Stadium have gone a long way in improving the fan experience at the facility. The washrooms are much better, the lines are shorter and they still are dirty, just not as dirty! The new Bills store is great, mind you the prices are still stadium prices! The fan concourse is much more navigable and inviting. The atmosphere at the Ralph though has not changed, which is awesome! The fans are still the fans!! They love their Bills, hopefully soon the Bills will soon give them something to really cheer about, go Rex Ryan!! Ralph Wilson Stadium and the tailgate is one of the best NFL experiences out there, I'd recommend a visit for any football fan out there for sure!!

The stadium is old and grimey, but I don't think Bills fans would have it any other way. Tickets are cheap and the beer flows easy. My wife and I drove down from Toronto to watch a game. I am a Cowboys fan by birth and my wife doesn't really follow football. With the excitement in the crowd and the friendliness of strangers, we couldn't help but cheer along with everyone for the Bills. We loved it and will come back next year for a game.

Loved the experience of going to the game at Wilson Stadium but you have to be ready to SIT in traffic for a LONG time!

I visited Buffalo on business and was lucky enough to be able to visit the stadium. it is an older stadium but the crowd was fun and friendly and the staff professional.

The area around the stadium was CRAZY busy with traffic and tailgate parties. It was really a lot of fun to people watch.The stadium itself is rather dated and the "big screens" really aren't that big. Security was a PITA getting in to the stadium.

This was my first time at the Ralph, so I wasn't sure what to except. The stadium itself was neat to see, it's cool how it's like a bowl in the ground. My one complaint is what they allow you to bring in - practically nothing! I have a very small MK side purse (which holds only my keys, money, credit cards, and a few other very small personal items) and they tried to tell me "No Bags". BUT because my bag was apparently borderline to big I was able to talk them into letting me in with it. My boyfriend was not so lucky and was forced to return his camera case to the car. This is ridiculous to me, what would we have done if we had no car on site and they would not let me bring my purse in? Would I have to throw it out or miss the game? I thought this was awful. We were at the Packers stadium in Green Bay last year which treated us much better. I completely understand going through all bags and searching everyone, but not letting women bring small purses in crosses the line. Not impressed.Everything else was pretty typical, overpriced concessions, long lines for food, beer, and bathrooms - but this I've come to accept and expect at all stadiums. I did find the fans rather obnoxious too, but I think it's just the luck of the draw who you get placed around - could go either way.Overall neat place, glad we went once to see it.

Ralph Wilson Stadium is just an average NFL stadium. It has been improving over the years in terms of facilities and food and beverage. The stadium is located in Orchard Park which is in the middle of nowhere however the tailgating and Bills fans that show up are passionate and make the experience great. Would recommend to any football fans to check it out at least once for yourself to judge. There are a lot of better stadiums in the NFL however this one is not located in a downtown core which means there really isnt anything else around in terms of bars and restaurants after the game. The stadium is cold and windy but that is the classic Buffalo Bills game experience.

It was a great day for the home finale of the Bills season. A huge win against one of the top teams in the NFL, great crowd that rocked the house all day long.

We love the stadium, this stadium was built for REAL football fans - its cold, it snows, and we stay warm cheering for our Bills! There are new heating technologies in the modernized stadium, so that helps people stay warm. Go to a game - you won't be disappointed!

Saw a great Bills game here. Bathrooms were conveniently located and the food and beverages were tasty. Of course, we spent more money than expected but that's the same at any sporting event.

We went to the Bills vs Kansas Chiefs game and it was our first visit to the Ralph Wilson Stadium. The stadium and its facilities are fantastic with your every need catered for. The atmosphere was wonderful. The only downside was the Bills shop was very expensive and you can buy the clothing much cheaper elsewhere.

I recently went to my first game at the Bills stadium, and i was really impressed and had an awesome time. I had heard some negative comments about the stadium being so old, but I think it is a great stadium for football. A lot of that is thanks to the amazing fans that make it so fun, but I also thought the stadium itself was impressive and well laid out. The recent renovations have really made it feel like it has received a facelift and looks great.
