7 Reasons You Should Be A Proud Member Of The BillsMafia

People often ask “How do I join #BillsMafia?” Our response has always been the same: “Do you bleed red, white, and blue? Eat, sleep, and breathe Bills? Then you’re already in.”

7 Reasons You Should Be A Proud Member Of The BillsMafia

Every NFL team has their fanbase. Patriots fans are known for supporting cheaters and being quite rude to visiting teams (cheaters never truly win you guys), Steelers fans have that little yellow rag that they spin around while simultaneously wiping their nose with it, and the Cowboys fans...well that's just a melting pot of bandwagoners.

But what about the Buffalo Bills fans? We are such a FAMbase that we have our own nickname...#BillsMafia! Trust me when I say this is a very eccentric group of amazing individuals each with their own special talents. Though our Fambase has been tarnished with misconceptions, here is why you should be proud to be apart of #BillsMafia (shout out to Del, Leslie, and Bre for being amazing and creating this on accident!)

1. We are more than just a fanbase.

BillsMafia is more than just showing up to games, home and away, cheering on the good ol' Buffalo Bills. We also try to help out the communities and each other in the process! Charities? Yeah we donate to those! Do your fans do that?

2. We are a family...a FAMbase!

We are always there for each other, whether it's helping each other out with a problem or just giving tickets we won't use to fans that would really enjoy their first ever Bills game! I've seen a lot of this on the Billsmafia facebook and it makes me so proud! Way to go guys!

3. We stick together through the good and the bad.


Let's be honest here..we are on a 16 year playoff drought with a possible 17 year if we don't get our act together. We are fans for more than the Superbowl rings (looking at you Patriot and Cowboys fans!) and we will be around for many more years to come without filling out a bandwagon application for another team.

4. We are open with our opinions and views without being rude to players.

Yeah.. we get frustrated. Our kicker isn't the best. Our QB is truly hit or miss. We have an exceptional running back (shout out to you McCoy. Love your work!) and our WR is made of glass. I think that justifies our frustrations. We voice our opinions without attacking our players and that's something a lot of you can't say!

5. PINTO RON. ENOUGH SAID!

Spoiler alert: Ron is not his first name. He is the most well known tailgater around and naturally he's a Bills fan!

6. We truly bleed Red, White, and Blue! #MERICA

I mean COME ON! Why are the Cowboys "America's Team"?! We are actually RED WHITE AND BLUE and we are proud of it. Ask any mafia member, they bleed those colors proudly!

7. The FAMbase turns into FAMily.


I have made so many new friends from all over the country thanks to the BillsMafia. Whenever I visit Buffalo I know that I will have a friend..or 15,000+ that I can hang out with!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
