Overview:

Located in Orchard Park, New York, next to Ralph Wilson Stadium, the Buffalo Bills Fieldhouse is the premier indoor practice facility in the National Football League. On game days, this tremendous facility is transformed into a huge celebration of football: The Gameday Experience. Featuring a youth football field, interactive games, and the 97 Rock pregame shows broadcast live, the Gameday Experience enables fans to get closer to the game of football as well as their favorite team, the Buffalo Bills. 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 21 - Oakland Raiders - Hamburg Rec.
  • October 19 - San Diego Chargers - Orchard Park Rec.
  • November 2 - New York Jets - YMCA of Rochester
  • November 30- San Francisco 49ers - YMCA of Pittsford
  • December 28 - New England Patriots - Kids Play Instructional

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 Trent Edwards and compare your foot size to Marshawn Lynch.

97 Rock Pregame Show:

Each week prior to the game, the Game Day 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).

Concessions:

Bills fans can fill up at the concession area of the Game Day Experience with an assortment of non-alcoholic beverages.
