Draft and 4th Anniversary Party!

Hello all you 927 Bills fans!

“Rain with a few rumbles of thunder”

That’s the forecast for this Saturday, April 23rd. Instead of staying home and staring at the rain, or going to either Shea or Yankee Stadiums to get soaked watching the ballgames, why not come down to McFadden’s for NYCBBB’s 4th Annual NFL Draft and Anniversary Party! They’re calling this the most exciting draft in years because nobody knows who’s going to be picked when, and teams are looking to trade away first round picks like never before! Because of this and GM Tom Donahoe’s love of making big draft day stories, it’s HIGHLY likely that the Bills will be trading up into the early second round, or even the FIRST round! Travis Henry will likely be traded, and there are even rumors of Nate Clements being traded for a first rounder! So you don’t miss out on any big trades, come on down to McFadden’s!

From 12-7pm we’ll have all-you-can-drink Molson Canadian, Labatt Blue, Bud, and Bud Light draft for $30. Wings aren’t included, but the kitchen will be open. Buying the special will also get you entered into a raffle for 2 Yankee tickets! We’re going to have the draft on, as well as the ballgames and any other sports we can find on TV (curling, eh?) Our own Michael Bly will be performing from 5-7:30pm, and will be taking requests from his repertoire of 500 songs! It promises to be a great afternoon of drinking beer, watching sports, listening to live music, and talking to all your Bills-fan friends for the first time since January! It’ll also likely be the last time for talking football with Bills fans until pre-season starts in late summer, so c’mon down and also check out the NEW permanent NYCBBB fixtures on the walls at McFadden’s!

In the following article, Bills Daily’s Steve Saslow expresses that this is one draft that Bills fans shouldn’t miss because it’s probable we’ll drafting much earlier than our slated 55th pick:

Help Your Fellow Fans!
We’re always trying to find Bills fans in the Tri-State area so they can share in the excitement of watching games at McFadden’s and Calico Jacks! Forward our emails and don’t hesitate to stop people on the street wearing Bills paraphernalia! Your NYCBBB staff does it all the time (including me stopping a kid in a Sabres jersey yesterday, only to discover he was an imposter!) so help out your fellow fans!

Shane Matthews
Yesterday, the Bills re-signed QB Shane Matthews to a one year deal, solidifying that position for the Bills.

SEE EVERYBODY ON SATURDAY!!! GO BILLS!
