Die hard or casual Bills fans won't want to miss any of the action.

Pee Wee Football Zone:
Before the pros take the field in Ralph Wilson Stadium, some youth football players will be participating in games in the fieldhouse. Back again in the Gameday Experience is the Pee Wee Football Zone - a miniature football field built specifically for young football players to display their talents. Two games will be played each home game with games starting at 10:00 a.m. and 11:30 a.m. The schedule for the season is as follows:

September 9 – Denver Broncos - Hamburg Rec.

November 4 – Cincinnati Bengals - TBA
November 18 – New England Patriots - Kids Play
December 9 – Miami Dolphins - Orchard Park Rec.
December 23 – New York Giants - Hamburg Rec.

Interactive Games:
Test your football ability and try your hand at a series of football themed skill games. Kick, Catch, Throw, Fair Catch and Run - just like the pros.

Vendor Areas:
Purchase trading cards and get autographs from Bills Alumni or the Buffalo Jills Cheerleaders. Also, find all the information you need to become a member of the Bills Backers and Jr. Bills Backers. Don't forget to get your face painted before you head into the stadium for the game.

Display Areas:
The Measure up to the Pros exhibit enables fans to compare themselves to Bills players. Compare your hand size to J.P. Losman's and compare your foot size to Jason Peters.

97 Rock Pregame Show:
Each week prior to the game, the Gameday Experience hosts the Official Buffalo Bills Pregame Show broadcast live on 97 Rock (96.9 FM). Join hosts Rich Gaenzler and Chris Brown as they kick off each game day from the Fieldhouse with live interviews and fan question and answer segments. Bills play by play man John Murphy hosts a roundtable discussion at 11:30AM with Mike Catlana (Rochester TV) and Chris Brown (editor of Bills Digest). Rich Gaenzler follows the roundtable with league news from Vic Carrucci (NFL insider and NFL.com).
