‘Mafia Misfits’- the fan club of Buffalo Bills, infamously known as the ‘Bills Mafia’, is onto something. The die-hard fans were looking for a place to call their home for the viewing parties. As a result, they created the ultimate tailgating retreat.

In less than four months’ time, they have a place ready and functioning, but how is it possible? Well, as for the ‘Mafia’, nothing is impossible.

Super fans of the Bills have a home now. The new house, just a few blocks away from the stadium, wasn’t something the fans were expecting for their new place. They did not explore the idea of buying a house until some members mentioned it, explained Dan Kline, a member of the club.

Talking to 7news, he said, “We ended up linking up with Kurt Armstrong, who is known as Bills Slingshot. Kinda fooling around talking about buying a house. And we thought he was joking cause he lives in Florida. Lo and behold, here we are. He bought a house.” 

By all means, Armstrong is the ultimate super fan. Like, who would come to support the bills on a mobile? Last year, he came from South Florida to Buffalo with his Bills Mobile that he’s been working on for three years.

After he bought the house in May, everyone from the group helped get the house ready before the regular season went underway. However, the house is dedicated not only to the Bills but to the entire NFL. Another member mentioned, “At the end of the day, we are fans of fans and that’s what we want to do.”

With this intention, they also emphasized what Bills meant for them: “It’s the heart and soul of Buffalo. The Bills are a working-class team, just like Buffalo is a working-class community. They’re both a mirror reflection of each other and I think that’s why the Bills mean so much to this community,” said Kline.

Meanwhile, the fan groups will host the first viewing party and tailgate to watch the season opener against the Los Angeles Raiders. Some Raiders fans will also join the party.

Buffalo Bills’ Season so far

The Buffalo Bills suffered a loss against the New York Jets. Bills were expected to win the game, especially with the pool of teams that they have to face in the future. Now returning to Buffalo for their home opener against the Raiders, they would look to bounce back from the loss and get back to winning games.

However, the Bills have to be aware of the challenge Raiders pose, and have a game plan ready. Doing certain things right will see the Bills back in the winning column once again. In either case, fans are ready to witness an epic clash. All we can do is wait and watch.
