If the tickets were $10, they’d be gone.

My very first professional football game (AFL) was Buffalo-Houston at 'the Rockpile' in Buffalo. My dad drove, parked in the street, he stopped at a grocery store and picked up a six-pack on the way, and we had a great time.

The Rockpile. That was in a nice part of town. There was a reason they built Rich Stadium in Orchard Park.

Back in the day you could bring a keg into the games at the Rockpile in Buffalo, I know because we did it. Of course after one game the kicker (Booth Lustig I think) got mugged by the fans for missing a kick that would have won the game! But hey, everyone had a good time for sure.
