While the animated parking lot scene of today may seem next-level, Bills supporters have been die-hard tailgaters since before the arrival of Josh Allen.
Throughout his whole lifetime as a Bills fan, David D’Angelo has only ever left one game early. He and his two sons were all soaking wet by the third quarter, watching their favorite team play, bluntly, horrible football in the pouring rain and sleet. D’Angelo would go on to give up his season tickets the next year, saying goodbye to 23 years of loyal attendance at Highmark Stadium. But he had already passed on his fandom to his family—or rather, they had no choice and were born into it, says his daughter Britini—creating a whole new crew of Bills fans ready to embrace the Bills Mafia when it finally came along.
