as it stands now, the bills have sold out their entire allotment. we can be assured that 50% of the stadium is entirely bills fans. there were a few different ticket drops today, and every time, their fans swooped in and grabbed them all. there's still considerable demand for bills seats.

the chiefs meanwhile have had much slower ticket sales. the lower level section between the 20s for example still has 100+ tickets left. there's 800 lower level seats left and another 1100 remaining in the club/upper levels.

as we saw very early today, tons of tickets flooded the re-sale market after the initial ticket buy today when it was allowed on ticketmaster (it's no longer allowed now.) but before re-sale was suspended, there were far more tickets being re-sold on the chiefs side than the bills side. i'd expect the same to happen when re-sale market opens up again, and you'll see blobs of blue mixed in with all the red.

don't get me wrong, the chiefs will be well represented. but the bills fanbase is hungrier for this game than we are (for obvious reasons, we're ALWAYS in this game nowadays) and regionally they have more fans in the southeast than we do.

What a stupid idea this was by the NFL. Cincy just needs to win to end this nightmare.

Good luck. The feels narrative is set. Cincy is done.

They should of forced buffaloes to finish that game. They didn’t. They can only blame themselves.

Bills fans do travel well. I do expect it to be 50/50 Bills and Chiefs fans (if the game happens) though.

No it won't. There will be more bills fans. They are desperate for this game.

You got a source for all this info or are you just making shit up?

bills fans flood miami every year for the fins game, they showed up in droves to the bills-jags playoff game, and took over the panthers stadium when they played there as well. there's shit loads of new yorkers who either live down that way regionally or go there for the winter to escape the hell that is western new york.

charlotte to atlanta is a 4-hr drive and north florida to atlanta is pretty much the same. not having to book rooms or flights (on top of this game meaning more to them) are all reasons why they'll have more fans in attendance.

if this game were played in houston or dallas, it would be 50/50 or perhaps chiefs leaning given proximity.

half the tickets were sold to bills sth's and the other half to chiefs. you can't cross over and buy the other side.

if you view the ticketmaster map and scroll over each of the sections, you can see exactly how many tickets are left in all the various chiefs sections. the bills side has zero inventory left.

it's not that hard to figure out.

The second Hamlin collapsed the season was over for everyone else.

Anyone got a code I can use to grab some tickets driving in from tampa area just found this forum don't know any season ticket holders would love to go

Brady is not playing. Did you not get the memo?

We have the Red Friday, Saturday night and Sunday after the game parties set. Still got the tailgate to lock up.

neutral site my ass

**** the league for this

at least we won't have to deal with the weather

Every time I think about it I get pissed! Straight bullshit. I am concerned about the officiating if we play Buffalo. Not scared of the team at all. If Cincy gets boned.......oh boy....

Well if Chris Jones hasn't said whatever he said we wouldn't be in this situation either.

And yes it's more on the NFL due to how they handled the bills game and not following the rules as written.

The whole thing stinks and the chiefs didn't get screwed as bad as Cincinnati did.

You mean when

I guess the news out of Buffalo is that Bills Mafia has already bought up all of their allotment and they now are buying Chiefs Kingdoms tickets.

Not sure if real or not.

Good - I hope it's 70% Bills Fans. Let them waste their money and travel all the way to ATL just to get their ass beat.

Personally, I'm not spending any money to go to ATL when the NFL ****ed us out of a home game. That game should be played at Arrowhead. Period.

There were a shit ton of Bills fans at the playoff game last year.

I had some super obnoxious ones behind me. They were brutal. Needless to say, they spent an HOUR after the game just sitting and sulking in their seats with a band of dedicated Chief's fans still around. That was glorious.

I had a STH code yesterday at 1PM. When I tried to purchase they were showing all sold out so I purchased from resale. Then about 2PM I tried again and there were tons of tickets for sale so I bought 4 more that I needed. I received an email last night that said the tickets I bought through resale have been cancelled. I called ticketmaster today to make sure they didn't cancel the tickets I bought through my STH code. They told me none of the tickets are showing cancelled. What a mess.

Pulling Bills Mafia shit in Atlanta could get you gang raped. They just assume you're a crazy bitch

IDK Burrow looks pretty damn smug, he might be beating the Bills.

Okay, looks like these tickets are going quick. Does anyone have a pre-sale code they would want to share with me? My dad will be coming along with me, but unfortunately he is a Bills fan (albeit a quiet one). I will hook you up if you do (Extra $100, or buy beers at the game, etc).

I really hope Bengals win, that way I can just go to K.C. FML

It ain't gonna matter.

The Bills barely handled Miami with a 3rd string QB.

The Bengals, who have a right to be pissed, are going to handle Buffalo.

AFCCG will be in Arrowhead.

God I hope so. Even though nobody is talking about it, the Bengals know they got bent over and that really should provide them with some extra motivation. Plus, they're simply the better team.

Damar willing!

🙏

The only real question is can they survive the league's No. 1 hatchet man wearing black and white.

Just beat Jacksonville

Yup...How weird if you win and then have to wait to find out if you've been robbed of HFA.

:shake:

Just imagine how big that game becomes if Jacksonville actually beats KC

Hope so, but the Bengals OL is decimated. They most likely will be without 3 starters. Unfortunately, we all know what that can be like.

They'll have to play 14-17 points better than the Bills to eek out a 3 point win with all the ref ball that's about to be played. With that being said I still think they have a great shot though. I just don't know if they're THAT much better than the Bills.

Bills secondary is beat up trash... Not scared of either.

The Bengals OL can handle the Bills DL in it's current state, which is just flat out bad with the injuries to their DTs and distinctly average edge guys.

I think Cincy scores 24-34 points.

The question is can they stop Josh? That will determine the game.

In a KC matchup, we are FAR better equipped to take advantage of their OL.

hopefully chiefs OL can hear over the army of bills fans that fill that stadium. disappointing job by chiefs season ticket holders not scooping up the allotment. :deevee:

I will hate Atlanta forever if we end up playing there.


**** you Roger Goodell. I'm going make a voodoo doll of Roger Goodell if we play in Atlanta. He may just trip down stairs at the game.

Yup, not feeling very confident about winning a game in Buffalo with an injured O-line and backups that could be even worse than last year's debacle.

That said, this Bengals team, even when things are bad and it looks like it should be a defeat, they just find a way to stay in the game with chances to win.

Here's to hoping Cincy can overcome HFA for Buffalo, Cheffers, backup caliber O-line and pull out a win to screw up that whole NFL Neutral site AFCC bullcrap.

Even better, here's to hoping Cincy can win in OT after both teams getting their guaranteed possession. That would be so sweet.

Neutral site games and changing playoff OT rules to accommodate Buffalo, I hope Cincy wrecks all that BS.

Burrow has shown the ability to stand in there and take hits. Slowing down Allen and forcing turnovers...he's been turning the ball over.

LMAO

Since when is Cheffers a Bills fan? Give me a break.

And Buffalo didn’t ask for the OT rule change and there is no evidence they asked for a neutral site. All the vitriol for Buffalo is without merit.

I signed up for the pre-sale a couple of days ago that is at 10:00AM ET today. Haven’t received any codes in my email yet. Anyone else try this and had any luck?

Bengals need to win this game so the NFL doesn’t get to see the neutral field bullshit.

Bc you just ****ing know they’re gonna make that a staple moving forward

We didn't get screwed. We almost certainly would not have gotten the #1 seed. We got one less play-off game and a bye out of the deal that we almost certainly would not have gotten.

Cincinnati is the team that really got screwed on the whole deal, and the only ones with a right to be pissed.

If they take care of Buffalo-and as bad and mistake prone as Buffalo looked against Miami, they will-then none of it will matter.

Just beat Jacksonville and all will be right and just. Then let the chips fall as they may.

Even if Jacksonville could win, the dagger goes into the Bills heart. Burrow and Lawrence could do it in the post season on first attempts

I don't know why that would make sense for the NFL... are they going to wait until the last minute each year to decide where the game is at?

You can have the most underwhelming match up ever for a team with HFA, and it'll be a sure sellout... what happens if it's Chargers/Dolphins in an AFCCG in Atlanta or Dallas?

I mean... we all know the NFL is dumb, but not everything has to be some slippery slope, since... well, most things aren't.

https://www.si.com/nfl/bills/news/bi...osal-is-unique

**** you and your ****ing team of system-gaming weasels. I never thought I'd see the day when a professional sports team benefitted this much from being quitters. They were on their way to getting their asses kicked, and this gave them a perfect out to not only avoid a loss in a hostile stadium against a superior team, but also come out smelling like little baby roses. And they now end up hosting a game they damned well should be playing in Cincinnati, and if they advance won't have to play at the stadium where they lost in the playoffs for the past two years. It was fairly obvious the following day that Hamlin was going to survive. They should have returned and finished the game or taken the loss. PERIOD. Refusing to take an exam should result in a zero, not an A+.

I can't even imagine the shame and disgust I would feel if the Chiefs had pulled this shit and gotten away with it. It is utterly despicable. At this point I'd rather see the Chiefs lose to the Bengals at Arrowhead than play a single snap against your coddled pussies in Atlanta.

I absolutely hate that team. They should lose 4 more SBs.

Not concerned too much about your line issues to be honest. Buffalo isn’t as good getting after the QB without Von. Plus you have Burrow who gets the ball out quick, you have two solid RBs, a solid TE, and three legit #1 WRs. I think you all will be plenty for the Bills to handle. Plus they will have a chip on their shoulders knowing that this game most likely would have been in Cincinnati had Buffalo not essentially quit. The Bengals will have a point to prove.

The Bills supported it but they did not propose it. That’s what Beane meant by “stamp” on it, they supported it (just like KC did).

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">The Colts and Eagles proposed the new playoff OT format (not the Bills nor the league itself), and your Chiefs voted in favor of it. <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/TheMoreYouKnow?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#TheMoreYouKnow</a> <a href="https://t.co/OpxTi9j32B">https://t.co/OpxTi9j32B</a></p>&mdash; Sal Capaccio �� (@SalSports) <a href="https://twitter.com/SalSports/status/1614271601373061126?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">January 14, 2023</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

Or if you don’t want to take the reporters word, here is the the official NFL notes from the rules meeting that resulted in the OT rule change. Notice the teams who proposed the rule change.

https://i.ibb.co/mtFR9C0/5-F7-C3322-...-BFC1-E412.png

I know many of you disagree but I don’t see what benefit the Bills got outside of a neutral game.

The Bills entered that week with the #1 seed and there is a good chance they retained that if the game continued. Bills lost more than they gained.

Simple, Simple question...

If the Bills were up 21-3 5 minutes into the 2nd quarter, would they have found a way to finish the game?

It will be nice and quiet around here come Sunday night when the bills and jags fans are gone

Your team refused to finish the game that they were losing on the road, and now doesn’t have to play any road games in the playoffs instead of being the 3 seed and playing two consecutive road games in the playoffs. All because the Bills organization and their fans are a bunch of giant pussies.

3 seed? That’s you assuming the Bills lose.

LMAO LMAO

WTFBBQPWNED

Man, that would be so glorious.

There have been some great days/weekends in recent years, like the Bengals securing the Chiefs AFCCG HFA last year, the night before :13... and while tomorrow's game most likely won't match :13, the Bengals winning in Buffalo would far outweigh beating the Titans in that shitfest of a game.

WTFBBQ is really one of the underrated and underused memes around here, even though it's been around for years. LMAO

I honestly think the whole O-line thing is being overblown. Way the **** overblown.

You have Joe Burrow. This is basically the same OL that took ya'll to the SB last season.

Mahomes took the Chiefs to a SB with even less of an OL.

Great QB's get the ball out fast, move in the pocket and buy time.

The OL thing is really, really overblown. And everyone will see that come Sunday.

No better way to express PURE PWNAGE

No, it means they proposed it and the league went with a different proposal. But they absolutely proposed a change when the game didn’t go their way.

Stop lying.

https://www.usatoday.com/story/sport...it/6983218001/

Earliest I could find is 2004 (including "omgwtfbbq") and love that it was UP... saw one post stating JimNasium was the first to use it though.

And you think your pansy ass team deserves the one seed because you are assuming they were going to come back and beat a team on the road that they were about to go down by two scores to. No matter how much you try and sugar coat it, your team wussed out into getting the two seed and not finishing that game when they had every opportunity to.

Oddly enough i saw Bills fan this morning. Here in San Diego. That's a rare bird.

She looked every bit as round, frumpy and homely as i'd imagine most Bills fans looking.

I've seen this shit all over social media. Jag fans are all offended because they're selling Chiefs and Bills AFC championship tickets. Like they don't even ****ing realize that they pre-sell tickets EVERY YEAR.

Yeah, playoff n00bs... they're always out there before the divisional round.

I don't know how people expect the NFL to start selling tickets the Monday before the game. People just want to be offended by something I guess.

Exactly. Every team sells tickets ahead. I guarantee the bills are selling tickets for the AFCCG in the event the Jags win. They just refund if the game isn’t played there.

Four years ago the we went to Syracuse for the holidays to visit the wife's family. While we were there I didn't see ANY Bills gear - not a sweat shirt, not a hat, not a bumper sticker. And when I asked people what they thought of the Bills, nobody gave a shit. And I mean NOBODY. All they cared about was their college team. That would be like not seeing any Chiefs gear in Columbia because everybody loved Mizzou.

And now the ****ers are crawling out of the woodwork. I think Bills fans are the new Steelers fans. Not from Buffalo, never been to Buffalo, and couldn't find Buffalo on a map. The real head scratcher here is..... why? Small, crappy city that may be in the state of New York, but is far removed from the east coast population centers. I've made the drive from NYC to Buffalo - that's a long ****ing trip. And unlike Pittsburgh, the Bills have never done shit; they choked away four Super Bowls that most people don't remember, were New England's bitch for two decades, and then choked in the playoffs some more. At least the Steelers bandwagon has some Lombardis in it.

Could it simply just be the No. 1 destination for Chiefs haters? You'd think that would be Cincinnati, since they've actually beaten us in a meaningful game. But apparently not. I just don't get it.

I agree that we didn't get screwed but I would argue that based on what we saw in the early part of the Bengals-Bills game, the Bengals were going to beat them and might not have been close. So no it wasn't a certainty that we weren't going to get the #1 seed.

My wife's family is all from Syracuse and I've been there multiple times, although not since 2020 because the state is run by loons and we have no need for that nonsense. I'd only see Giants, Eagles, Steelers, Ravens and Jet fans there and never a Buffalo fan. The people there only mention Buffalo when they talk about how shitty and dirty it is and they would never want to live there.

I wouldn't be surprised if Cincinnati hasn't already sold tickets in case they win and Chiefs lose.

Only team that can't host is Jacksonville.

Jacksonville also presold AFCCG and divisional round playoff tickets. I would guess that was the case for most of the playoff teams.

Bro!? I thought you were rooting for the Bills with me?

Come back? They were down 4 points in the FIRST QUARTER. Against a team that blew a 22 point lead against Mac Jones the week before!
