The Buffalo Bills will participate in the Jamestown vs. Bennett High School homecoming football game at Strider Field on Friday, October 3, as part of NFL Rivalries Week celebrations.
Fans attending the event can expect several activities, including participation in Jamestown’s homecoming parade and appearances by Bills Legend Fred Jackson and team mascot Billy Buffalo. There will also be an interactive fan zone with games, giveaways, and photo opportunities.
A Huddle for Hunger Food Drive will take place at the gate entry in partnership with Wegmans, FeedMore WNY, and St. Susan Center. Fans who donate non-perishable food items will receive a Buffalo Bills Rivalry tote bag. The food collected will support FeedMore WNY and nearly 400 partner hunger-relief agencies in the region.
Wegmans will offer samples of its new “Bring the Storm” Buffalo Bills-themed ice cream during the event. On-field activities include a ceremonial coin toss and t-shirt tosses.
The schedule for Friday includes gates opening at 5:45 p.m., the Jamestown Homecoming Parade at 6:00 p.m., fan activation area activities during halftime at 6:00 p.m., and kickoff at 7:00 p.m. The location is Strider Field, 195 Martin Road, Jamestown, NY.
Nike and the NFL have launched Rivalries, a new uniform and fan gear program designed to highlight NFL rivalry games over four seasons. The program features special Nike uniforms inspired by each team’s history and community aspects. The Buffalo Bills are one of eight teams selected to participate for the 2025 season and are scheduled to wear their Rivalries uniform on Sunday, October 5.
“The Buffalo Bills Huddle for Hunger initiative aims to raise awareness of food insecurity in our region and support local hunger-fighting charities,” according to event organizers.
