• 2:20
  Speaker 6: movie all around.
• 2:21
  Speaker 7: Buffalo, like you were saying, And we actually.
• 2:24
  Speaker 6: Got to shoot right next to the stadium at a
• 2:27
  Speaker 6: real tailgate that was a fake tailgate that looked like
• 2:29
  Speaker 6: a real tailgate, and then we got to go to
• 2:31
  Speaker 6: a real tailgate where we shot the fake fake tailgate
• 2:35
  Speaker 6: at the same house.
• 2:36
  Speaker 7: And that was a lot of fun.
• 2:38
  Speaker 6: But yeah, it's this sort of city of good neighbors,
• 2:42
  Speaker 6: and we are good neighbors in the movie.
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: Speaking of city. Well maybe not, we don't know.
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: When you guys were here was the talk of the town.
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: So many people from Buffalo wanted to be extras in
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: the film. It was awesome to just be at work
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: and then check what was going across the street.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: Going on across the street. On certain days.
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: It was like, oh, there's all the extras lining up
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: for their scene, and you guys were in the stadium.
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: So I'm so excited.
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: You got to see so many different places in Buffalo,
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: and Andrew, I.
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: Know this place.
• 3:13
  Speaker 4: I was standing in that line. I was standing on
• 3:14
  Speaker 4: that line.
• 3:15
  Speaker 5: Actually, I'm very happy I was chosen to be in
• 3:17
  Speaker 5: the movie as well, just standing there wanting to you know,
• 3:21
  Speaker 5: do a cameo as a bartender.
• 3:22
  Speaker 4: A very complex character actually, long time, long.
• 3:26
  Speaker 5: Time bartender, and I knew Holland's character very well, same
• 3:31
  Speaker 5: with Matthews, but we never really crossed paths at the bar.
• 3:34
  Speaker 5: We know we had a complex high school though. It
• 3:37
  Speaker 5: was like things didn't work out with us too much
• 3:39
  Speaker 5: at high school.
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: So we were but then we now we're things are cool, cool,
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: We're cool now. Yeah.
• 3:46
  Speaker 5: So yeah, a lot of backstory too to the bartender role,
• 3:49
  Speaker 5: and I'm just happy I was able to take it
• 3:51
  Speaker 5: on and hopefully do it justice, do the movie justice.
• 3:54
  Speaker 5: Hopefully people will continue watching it after they see my scene.
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: A lot of backstory to being in the movie.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: And you're you're from Montreal, You're cheered for the Bills
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: for a long time. How special was it to be
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: a part of a movie.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: That you know, features a team that you.
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: Know so much about.
• 4:12

  Speaker 5: years here in Buffalo, and now we got happy years.
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: We have great years now.

• 5:02
  Speaker 2: fuzzy feelings about what Buffalo is. City of good neighbors
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: is the perfect way to put it. You guys are
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: back for a game. It's not like we're still shooting
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: the movie and we're taping this podcast.
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: No, you are back for a Bills game.
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: Matt.
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: Why didn't you want to come back to Buffalo?
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: Oh?
• 5:18
  Speaker 8: Man, you know, I was focused, like up in Toronto
• 5:21
  Speaker 8: a long time ago, and a lot of the crew
• 5:23
  Speaker 8: get real excited about Bills games and they would say,
• 5:26
  Speaker 8: we're gonna drive down, should come with us, And I
• 5:29
  Speaker 8: really regret I never took them up on the offer
• 5:32
  Speaker 8: because I just didn't know. I didn't know. I didn't
• 5:34
  Speaker 8: know about this fan base. I mean, the fan base
• 5:37
  Speaker 8: it's crazy, and they're all over the country.
• 5:39
  Speaker 4: Everywhere I go.
• 5:40
  Speaker 8: I see the Bills flags outside of people's houses in
• 5:44
  Speaker 8: cities all across the country.
• 5:46
  Speaker 4: I see.
• 5:47
  Speaker 8: I started following some Bills related social media accounts, and
• 5:51
  Speaker 8: I see people in foreign countries with Bills flags and
• 5:54
  Speaker 8: Bills gear. They meet somebody, they're like, oh, you're a
• 5:56
  Speaker 8: Bill's fan. They meet up in a foreign countries.
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: That's crazy.
• 5:59
  Speaker 4: The Bills, the Bills.
• 6:00
  Speaker 8: Have one of the best fan bases in the country.
• 6:02
  Speaker 8: I think I can say that confidently. And after getting
• 6:05
  Speaker 8: to walk around at a tailgate, a real tailgate here,
• 6:08
  Speaker 8: said I want to come back.
• 6:10
  Speaker 4: I want to come back again and again. It's awesome,
• 6:12
  Speaker 4: it's really cool. You want to come back for that chicken?
• 6:14
  Speaker 4: I want you want to come back for that?
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: What did you have?
• 6:21
  Speaker 8: There's somebody cooking smoking chicken and ponchos army army.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah.
• 6:33
  Speaker 4: File cabinets is an incredible setup.
• 6:36
  Speaker 8: And I think there should be some sort of study
• 6:38
  Speaker 8: of all the food here.
• 6:39
  Speaker 4: There should be somebody who goes through.
• 6:42
  Speaker 6: Pizza rolls like you guys have your own ecosystem, not
• 6:46
  Speaker 6: just in Buffalo, but like just of tailgates from you know,
• 6:49
  Speaker 6: you start as like a rambunctious twenty something like busting
• 6:52
  Speaker 6: through tables. But then you go to the family tailgates
• 6:55
  Speaker 6: and they highly disapprove of the of the table crushing.
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: They do not go over there, don't look over there.
• 7:01
  Speaker 6: So even the inner workings of the different types of
• 7:05
  Speaker 6: tailgates in Buffalo is really unique.
• 7:07
  Speaker 4: I'm surprised guy Fiori hasn't done it already.
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: Travel and shoes and dives.
• 7:16
  Speaker 4: I'll do it. I'll do it. I got a show.
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: The three of us are volunteering as tribute.
• 7:21
  Speaker 4: Not coming home, babe, I'm gonna tailgate.
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: Of filing cabinets for the rest of my days.
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: Holland, you were talking about the fact that you guys
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: filmed some scenes at homes during the movie, and now
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: back for a game. You got to go back to
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: those homes to tailgate.
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: How neat was that?
• 7:41
  Speaker 6: I had my first I'm from Texas, so I've had
• 7:44
  Speaker 6: some taco salad, but this taco salad was made with
• 7:48
  Speaker 6: Dorito's and French dressing.
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: It's the first taco salad I've had.
• 7:52
  Speaker 7: With the two of those ingredients in the combination.
• 7:56
  Speaker 6: Yeah, And like I said, the beef on the pizza rolls.
• 8:00
  Speaker 6: You also have the drink. It's not even juice, the
• 8:02
  Speaker 6: logo Berry drink.
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: So I think people just needed to come back to.
• 8:06
  Speaker 7: Buffalo just for the food tour alone, let alone the
• 8:09
  Speaker 7: Bill's fandom.
• 8:10
  Speaker 6: But it's just surreal to be part of a Hallmark
• 8:14
  Speaker 6: where you feel like you're already part of a family,
• 8:17
  Speaker 6: and then to enter this Russian doll effect of the
• 8:21
  Speaker 6: Buffalo's fan base is also so fervent that it was
• 8:25
  Speaker 6: only appropriate that, like the Bill's enthusiasm was then placed
• 8:30
  Speaker 6: into a Hallmark movie where the viewership is also so
• 8:34
  Speaker 6: passionate about the holiday movies. And the crossover has been
• 8:38
  Speaker 6: really interesting. People that are Bills fans that also watch Hallmark. Yes,
• 8:42
  Speaker 6: I heard that a lot. When we announced we were
• 8:43
  Speaker 6: doing a Hallmark movie. It was like the Hallmark fans
• 8:47
  Speaker 6: and the Bills fans were like.
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: Yes, the collab I've always wanted. I can't believe it.
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: One of our co hosts on the radio show, Chris Brown,
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: his wife is a big Hallmark fan, so when we
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: announced it, she was elated to hear that, Hey, there's
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: going to be a Bill's Hallmark story coming out.
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: Andrew, you know this fan base so, well, what was
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: it like getting to see these two experience it for
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: the first time at a tailgate?
• 9:13
  Speaker 5: Well, I mean they will experience it more after the
• 9:16
  Speaker 5: movie airs. I'm always just surprised that, you know, when
• 9:20
  Speaker 5: people come over and say that they know me and
• 9:23
  Speaker 5: they've seen the movies that I'm in. I think this
• 9:25
  Speaker 5: is an incredible community. And you know, we don't we
• 9:28
  Speaker 5: don't even call our fans fans. They're just they're part
• 9:31
  Speaker 5: of the ecosystem that we work in.
• 9:33
  Speaker 4: And it's become.
• 9:35
  Speaker 5: An unbelievable working environment. And I pinch myself all the time.
• 9:40
  Speaker 5: Like I my my ten year old tells me, is like, Daddy,
• 9:44
  Speaker 5: you feel like you don't even go to work like
• 9:46
  Speaker 5: you you just you have so much fun. I want
• 9:49
  Speaker 5: to do what you do, and it truly is. It's
• 9:51
  Speaker 5: just it's so much fun. I love the people I
• 9:53
  Speaker 5: work with, and for these two to take on this
• 9:56
  Speaker 5: movie and be the faces of this movie, I think
• 9:58
  Speaker 5: it's really it's it's it's a opportunity and they are
• 10:04
  Speaker 5: perfect for it. And I just can't wait for fans
• 10:07
  Speaker 5: to see the two of them in this movie representing
• 10:10
  Speaker 5: the bills, you know, America's team.
• 10:13
  Speaker 4: Yes, I will say it America's team.
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: I agree, because this is.
• 10:17
  Speaker 5: The hard working culture and community of America in Buffalo,
• 10:22
  Speaker 5: and I was we were talking to nurses, and we
• 10:24
  Speaker 5: were talking to teachers, and this is the this is
• 10:28
  Speaker 5: our fan base, you know. So yeah, just feels super
• 10:32
  Speaker 5: grateful to be doing this and this kind of work.
• 10:35
  Speaker 4: It's it's great.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: Matt as an actor, one of the coolest things about.
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: Getting to film in different places is getting to experience
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: new things. What's the uniqueness of getting to become a
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: part of the place that you're filming, you.
• 10:47
  Speaker 8: Know, Buffalo, right, I was only here a short time,
• 10:49
  Speaker 8: about a month, about a month, Yeah, and I almost
• 10:53
  Speaker 8: felt I kind of fell at home immediately. And I
• 10:56
  Speaker 8: think it's because of the people. Sometimes you travel somewhere
• 10:58
  Speaker 8: and you go maybe you film some where, and you
• 11:00
  Speaker 8: don't really connect with the city. And sometimes that happens
• 11:03
  Speaker 8: in sort of bigger cities. But there's a lot going Okay, right,
• 11:05
  Speaker 8: But when I got to Buffalo, you know, I'm doing
• 11:10
  Speaker 8: a Bills film and I arrive at a at a
• 11:12
  Speaker 8: hotel that's not close to the stadium at all, and
• 11:14
  Speaker 8: there's on the checkout sign says, you know, check out
• 11:18
  Speaker 8: by two pm.
• 11:18
  Speaker 4: It says, go Bills, and I know this. This is
• 11:20
  Speaker 4: everywhere in.
• 11:21
  Speaker 8: Buffalo, and I was like, okay, I'm doing a Bills
• 11:23
  Speaker 8: film for a Hallmark. Bill's Bills kind of runs this town.
• 11:27
  Speaker 8: That's a that's you know everyone everyone in Buffalo. You
• 11:30
  Speaker 8: gotta be a Bills fan. Oh yeah, you gotta be
• 11:32
  Speaker 8: a Bills fan.
• 11:33
  Speaker 4: And so I.
• 11:33
  Speaker 8: Felt I felt kind of like, oh right, all right.
• 11:36
  Speaker 4: I felt kind of accepted because of that.
• 11:37
  Speaker 8: And then I met the people and everyone was so nice,
• 11:39
  Speaker 8: so enthusiastic that honestly, I'm gonna come back here. I'm
• 11:43
  Speaker 8: gonna bring my family back, certainly for a tale, Okay,
• 11:45
  Speaker 8: certainly for a game. And uh, you know it's close
• 11:49
  Speaker 8: to where I live.
• 11:49
  Speaker 7: I'm gonna I'm gonna.
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: Come by a new member Bill's Mafia.
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: That's what we love to hear. That's what we want
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: people to do. You come in a Buffalo experience and
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: you're like, I gotta come hell, Holland you guys got
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: to film all over Buffalo.
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: What was your favorite place that you filmed it?
• 12:06
  Speaker 6: Oh my gosh, I think my favorite place, because I'm
• 12:10
  Speaker 6: a candy freak, would be Bidler's And they have every
• 12:15
  Speaker 6: decade of a candy. I mean from like the bubble
• 12:19
  Speaker 6: gum cigarettes, which I hate smoking, but I.
• 12:21
  Speaker 3: Love bubblegum cigarettes. And I'm trying to.
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: Think of all the little like Hamburger gummies.
• 12:29
  Speaker 7: What else were my favorites.
• 12:30
  Speaker 8: All the things that you want as a kid.
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: Hamberger Just in that store, I mean we have a
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: little like toys.
• 12:36
  Speaker 6: They also have the sea monkeys, so it's like walking
• 12:40
  Speaker 6: down obviously memory Lane, but East Auror in general.
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: Top fifty pizzas in the United States.
• 12:46
  Speaker 6: People at Pizza Florian, Pizzaia Florian get the claborant crunch.
• 12:51
  Speaker 3: I'm a foodie, so I love just getting.
• 12:54
  Speaker 6: To know all the local foods in Buffalo. But I
• 12:56
  Speaker 6: think what would take the cake would ironically be the
• 12:58
  Speaker 6: candy store for me.
• 13:00
  Speaker 3: And all the murals too, just the murals.
• 13:02
  Speaker 6: That celebrate the team all around the city. I joke
• 13:06
  Speaker 6: that I always thought there's an election going on at
• 13:08
  Speaker 6: all times. That's just electing Buffalo Bills at large. And
• 13:12
  Speaker 6: then I would also say the fan Cave for me
• 13:15
  Speaker 6: was really interesting that we drove about forty five minutes
• 13:21
  Speaker 6: outside of you know, downtown Buffalo to this house that
• 13:24
  Speaker 6: was pretty famous all over the New York State, Do
• 13:27
  Speaker 6: you know what I'm talking about?
• 13:28
  Speaker 4: Us?
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: It was and we have a.
• 13:31
  Speaker 6: Fun scene with a little animal and that in that
• 13:33
  Speaker 6: particular part of the movie that, of course, it was
• 13:37
  Speaker 6: centered around this cute little animal in the fan cave.
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: I love it.
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: So when I saw that you guys were filming in
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: East Aurora, I mean, it's just such a cute, picturesque town,
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: and I was like, this is this is.
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: Perfect for a Hallmark movie.
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: You're outside biddlers, just the white and red stripes on
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: the outside.
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: The awning.
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: It's just perfect. So I can't wait to see what
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: it looks like in film.
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: Andrew. There were also so.
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: Many cameos in this movie. We had coaches, we had players.
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: Who is your favorite cameo?
• 14:09
  Speaker 5: Well, I haven't seen the movie yet, so there might
• 14:11
  Speaker 5: be somebody in there that I don't know.
• 14:13
  Speaker 4: But I think.
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: Jim Kelly is that big.
• 14:18
  Speaker 5: That's pretty cool, uh, Jim Kelly, Thurman, Thomas Andre Reid,
• 14:23
  Speaker 5: I would say are top three for me. Coach McDermott,
• 14:26
  Speaker 5: that's awesome. I think he's he really is the reason
• 14:31
  Speaker 5: why the Bills are where they are right now and
• 14:33
  Speaker 5: how why I think they will eventually win the championship.
• 14:38
  Speaker 5: But yeah, those those that that threesome right there.
• 14:42
  Speaker 4: If I could, I'd be I'd be.
• 14:43
  Speaker 5: Fan girling for sure if I was on set with
• 14:46
  Speaker 5: Maybe that's the reason why I wasn't on set with them.
• 14:49
  Speaker 6: I was going to going to remember my lines.
• 14:54
  Speaker 4: If I was on set with them, you.
• 14:55
  Speaker 6: Would have had to be a I can't give too
• 14:57
  Speaker 6: much of the movie, but there's also a beverage serving
• 15:01
  Speaker 6: person in the scene that.
• 15:03
  Speaker 7: Those three women.
• 15:04
  Speaker 6: Yes, yes, yeah, so he you were you were the
• 15:09
  Speaker 6: other type of.
• 15:11
  Speaker 3: Serving person, the.
• 15:12
  Speaker 4: Other type of yes, right, yeah.
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: Holland and Matt You guys got to be a part
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: of so many different scenes, and you got to see
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: some of Buffalo's players a part of these scenes. Was
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: there a player that you thought, Wow, this guy is
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: pretty good at acting.
• 15:38
  Speaker 3: Three three? I think we should say our favorite. No,
• 15:41
  Speaker 3: we can't.
• 15:41
  Speaker 4: We can't can't identify favorites.
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: That's the big favorite kid.
• 15:45
  Speaker 6: But there was one particular guy that is interesting, is
• 15:50
  Speaker 6: interested in entertainment.
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: Do you know you know what I'm talking about.
• 15:55
  Speaker 6: I was gonna say, y Davis, I was Deon Dawkins
• 15:59
  Speaker 6: might have my heart art and I will be sitting
• 16:01
  Speaker 6: at my Valentine's Day card every single Cebruary fourteenth for
• 16:03
  Speaker 6: the rest of my life.
• 16:05
  Speaker 3: As I think everybody else is as well.
• 16:07
  Speaker 6: But Ray Davis really, Ray Davis showed up. He I
• 16:12
  Speaker 6: thought he was like, he felt like an actor, not
• 16:14
  Speaker 6: that Dion or DeMar did not.
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: They were both lovely.
• 16:18
  Speaker 6: And the scene that Dion Dawkins into my Hamlet are
• 16:21
  Speaker 6: in is such a heartfelt scene, and I wish there
• 16:26
  Speaker 6: could be like a behind the scenes in between the
• 16:28
  Speaker 6: takes of how Dion and Damar were with these kids
• 16:32
  Speaker 6: in this scene.
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, your.
• 16:34
  Speaker 6: Heart melts, and it really just shows not only the
• 16:37
  Speaker 6: heart of those people, but the heart of the Bills
• 16:38
  Speaker 6: at large. Like I said earlier, I think I keep
• 16:40
  Speaker 6: saying the Bills at large because it feels like each
• 16:43
  Speaker 6: individual person is just as kind as you guys are
• 16:45
  Speaker 6: as a whole.
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: But yeah, that's a tough one. It's like choosing your
• 16:49
  Speaker 3: favorite kid. But I'm gonna have to go with Ray Davis.
• 16:50
  Speaker 6: His delivery was excellent, But Dion and Damar's heart in
• 16:55
  Speaker 6: those scenes will get Jeff Man Oh yeah, right, you know.
• 17:00
  Speaker 8: Look he was He nailed his line first, no problem.
• 17:04
  Speaker 8: Then the director asked him to adjust, and he adjusted
• 17:06
  Speaker 8: exactly perfectly.
• 17:08
  Speaker 4: Absolutely bizarre.
• 17:09
  Speaker 6: Joshua Palmer also hilarious at the doorstet Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 17:14
  Speaker 4: Dartender, guys, how about the bartender? Was that a good cameo?
• 17:17
  Speaker 4: Was that? Did that person delivered? Guy?
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: He did great barista, but he got bartender?
• 17:24
  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 17:26
  Speaker 8: And also coach was amazing, Yes, he was great.
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: Flipping from coach to acts are pretty quick.
• 17:33
  Speaker 3: There were some really fun Dawthin Knox was quite funny.
• 17:36
  Speaker 4: Yeah, he was.
• 17:37
  Speaker 6: He roll with the punches or some improv. He got
• 17:39
  Speaker 6: into it. So I think I think the players had
• 17:42
  Speaker 6: more fun than they maybe thought they were going to have,
• 17:44
  Speaker 6: or they were maybe a little nervous it really they
• 17:47
  Speaker 6: walked away. I think hopefully as Homewark fans, they seem
• 17:50
  Speaker 6: to have.
• 17:51
  Speaker 7: A great time.
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: I think when you if you don't know you know
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: how the sausage is made of film, you're on the
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: outside looking and you're kind of like, do I don't well,
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: how is this going to go? I want to be
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: part of it, but I don't know what it's going
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: to be like. And then I'm sure the players sign
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: up for it and they're like, man, okay, I want
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: to be a part of a lot of these now,
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: so they're.
• 18:09
  Speaker 3: A little different than commercials.
• 18:10
  Speaker 7: Yeah, a lot of them have commercial experience.
• 18:12
  Speaker 6: And even the tailgaters, who are obviously we all those
• 18:15
  Speaker 6: fans were shocked.
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: At how many different angles we had to get it from.
• 18:19
  Speaker 6: Oh yeah, and that's what they said. Was kind of
• 18:22
  Speaker 6: shocking to them. So it's always interesting to see what
• 18:24
  Speaker 6: people think.
• 18:25
  Speaker 4: It's either you think that or you're just like, I'm
• 18:27
  Speaker 4: done with it. I'll never do this again. It's just
• 18:29
  Speaker 4: it's so boring.
• 18:30
  Speaker 5: It's the same thing over and over and over again
• 18:33
  Speaker 5: in a different angle.
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: It's a cool stage though, I mean, the stage of
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: playing on in the NFL is an incredible stage to
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: be on, and our players do a great job with
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: the stage that they have. But when you get an
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: opportunity to be on a different stage, that is also
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: a pretty big stage.
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: To be on, Like why not jump at it?
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: So, I know our fans and myself, I'm looking forward
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: to seeing our guys.
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: In it so much. I know they're going to be great.
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: A big thank you to them.
• 18:59
  Speaker 6: We were a little bit all struck in the hair
• 19:01
  Speaker 6: and makeup trailer watching these like NFL players come and
• 19:03
  Speaker 6: sit down.
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: And make up tears next to us. I was like,
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: this is.
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: Why larger than life humans?
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, like six seven six, feeling as usual?
• 19:11
  Speaker 7: We were we were.
• 19:12
  Speaker 6: I was a bit taken back, like this is not
• 19:13
  Speaker 6: a normal day at my work place.
• 19:16
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I'm going to call them out. Though they told
• 19:18
  Speaker 8: me that they were nervous to meet us.
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: No way.
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: I was like, did you did you send any nerves? Once?
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: Once it was lights camera action, because these guys, I
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: mean play, you know, Sunday night football, Thursday night football,
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: Monday night football.
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: You got millions of people watching when you're on a set.
• 19:35
  Speaker 6: Did you feel like, I hope we're not calling this
• 19:37
  Speaker 6: particular human out. But when he sat down and he
• 19:40
  Speaker 6: gave the most straight answer when I asked him a R,
• 19:43
  Speaker 6: I said, oh, do you have any acting experience?
• 19:44
  Speaker 3: He goes, oh yeah, fourth Peter Pan. I was like, oh, okay, okay, that's.
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: Nobody, let's go.
• 19:50
  Speaker 3: And he the way he said it, I loved it.
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: He is so confident.
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: I'm just they were all so lovely.
• 19:57
  Speaker 3: I fell in love with all of them. They're just
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: great to have you guys really are.
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: They are great people And it's top down. It starts
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: with our owners than Coach McDermott and the players are incredible.
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: Holiday Touchdown, A Bill's Love Story airs on November twenty second.
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: Matt, what is the excitement level for this release?
• 20:17
  Speaker 8: I'm really excited. It's because of Buffalo. It's because of
• 20:20
  Speaker 8: Buffalo somewhere else.
• 20:21
  Speaker 7: I don't know.
• 20:21
  Speaker 8: I'd baby be like eh, but I'm really excited for
• 20:24
  Speaker 8: everybody to see this movie.
• 20:25
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 20:25
  Speaker 6: I joke that I'm not a football fan, but I
• 20:27
  Speaker 6: am a Bills fan, and I mean that through and through.
• 20:29
  Speaker 3: I actually wear this shirt working out guys at home.
• 20:33
  Speaker 4: I really do.
• 20:34
  Speaker 3: Maybe not the necklace, but I wear this. I like
• 20:37
  Speaker 3: the Matt wears the necklace.
• 20:41
  Speaker 7: Andrew.
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: Since you're the resident og Bill's fan here, you know,
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: have been following the team much before you became a
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: bartender in the movie, What do you.
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: Love about the Bills so much?
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: Specifically this group, this twenty twenty five group with Sean McDermott,
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: Josh Allen, a Sleable receivers, you got James Cook in
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: the mix.
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: What's what's the best part about it for you?
• 21:04
  Speaker 5: I mean, I think it's uh evolution and I think
• 21:07
  Speaker 5: the Bills have been an organization that has they've come
• 21:12
  Speaker 5: so close, and it's uh.
• 21:16
  Speaker 4: It's the team now.
• 21:18
  Speaker 5: I feel like there's a lot of similarities to what
• 21:21
  Speaker 5: they were back in that era of Jim Kelly and
• 21:25
  Speaker 5: Bruce Smith and Thurman Thomas. They have those key positions
• 21:28
  Speaker 5: and those key players, but there is something different now.
• 21:33
  Speaker 4: There's like an aura around them.
• 21:35
  Speaker 5: There's a there's an excitement and an expectation, which there
• 21:41
  Speaker 5: should be, because I think it's about time that they
• 21:43
  Speaker 5: that they take home a super Bowl. But that's yeah,
• 21:48
  Speaker 5: that's what I'm really excited about. I think that they
• 21:49
  Speaker 5: have these key positions and players now and uh and
• 21:53
  Speaker 5: also they know, like Josh Allen, if he was sitting here,
• 21:57
  Speaker 5: he knows that he can do it. I I feel
• 22:00
  Speaker 5: that when I watch him, there's a confidence in the
• 22:03
  Speaker 5: way that he plays the game and determination, and I
• 22:07
  Speaker 5: think that that's that That's the thing, like all these
• 22:09
  Speaker 5: these great quarterbacks, I think like the NFL right now
• 22:12
  Speaker 5: is at a place where I don't I don't think
• 22:14
  Speaker 5: there's ever been so much talent across the board, NFL, NBA,
• 22:19
  Speaker 5: whatever sport you're into. I think just athleticism is a
• 22:22
  Speaker 5: different level now. So when you watch these guys play
• 22:26
  Speaker 5: it is so difficult to be those that that top
• 22:29
  Speaker 5: percentage quarterback and Josh Allen across all all uh you
• 22:35
  Speaker 5: know levels is is is a top percentage, top performing
• 22:39
  Speaker 5: quarterback in his rushing and his passing, his past percentage,
• 22:43
  Speaker 5: how he feeds the ball to different players as well,
• 22:46
  Speaker 5: and I think that opens up for a great run
• 22:48
  Speaker 5: game and vice versa.
• 22:49
  Speaker 7: So is.
• 22:49
  Speaker 5: I just think that the Bills are poised and ready
• 22:53
  Speaker 5: for for a championship. And I think that's you know,
• 22:55
  Speaker 5: it's very It's a really exciting time to be a
• 22:57
  Speaker 5: Bills fan.
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: Andrew, you're a bartender in this movie, but I think
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: you need to be an analyst and that in the
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: life you live.
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: I mean, that was the.
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: Perfect explanation of who this team is and what to
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: expect for the season and what makes them so great.
• 23:11
  Speaker 4: Make me proud, boys, make me proud.
• 23:13
  Speaker 3: I love it.
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: Make us proud, Make us proud, Yeah, make us proud.
