On October 3, 2013, Mark and I drove to Cleveland for a Thursday game against the Browns. It was a beautiful fall afternoon and as we tailgated, this orange bus pulled up to an empty spot next to us. I watched as a Browns fan hopped out of the bus, opened the back door and proceeded to pull out all of his tailgating equipment: a grill, coolers, tables, chairs, grill utensils, and tailgate food. He even had a makeshift sink for cleanup. For me and that bus, it was love at first sight—that was the moment my dream of a Jenny’s Bills Bus was born. Yes, my original plan was a school bus painted red & I’m so grateful that my favorite Kless Boy elevated that dream to a 1965 VW Bus. After 12 years, I’m hoping to see Dog Pound Bound again as we are headed to the game and to the same spot to tailgate. I want to tell him thank you for the inspiration. I have always believed that Bills Fans and Browns fans are kindred spirits. We love our teams hard and without apology. Dog Pound Bound showed me that you can love your team so much, that you buy a bus and dedicate it to bringing friends and family together through the ups and downs of loving your team ❤️💙🏈🧡🤎
