Da Bills

The National Football League, known to most Canadians as the NFL, have been coming up to the frozen lands of Toronto for the past several seasons as their crappiest team - the Buffalo Bills, fights and loses against other NFL teams at the Rogers Centre. So far they are 0 for 7 games - seven straight loses! Today they play Da Bears (You have to love SNL).

Many people complain that we cannot have the true famous NFL tailgate party - which I have heard a lot about, but they do put on a formal tailgate party beside the skydome - just minus the vehicles.

I dropped by yesterday and checked out the tickets - the only available tickets on sale go for over $100 a seat! Cripes, who do they think they are - the Leafs. Scalpers on site were trying to move the tickets at 3/4 to 1/2 the listed price. Toronto doesn't seem to be embracing the NFL or more likely the losing Bills team. Had cheaper tickets been available I would have liked to go to see the game and get a flavour of one of America's top rated sports game - and the cheerleaders. Instead of cheerleaders I will have to go on the memory of Toronto's Bud Girls and some of the ladies at the Honda Indy.
