Time to call out the fanbase

The reason Miami Dolphins season tickets are sold out is due to people trying to make a profit. I looked at two sites during half time which people were trying to sell upper level endzone seats for $200 each. I think we are not the only club experiencing this due to electronic reselling. There were quite a few away games which I saw a lot of Dolphin fans in attendance. There were tons of die hard season ticket holders at the game I sit with but there were quit a few empty seats also!
 
Can I just step in and say thank you to all the UK fans! You guys rock! Always appreciate hearing your perspectives.

Hopefully the Dolphins can win a few games in playoffs to make us all proud.

The problem is that you knew they were there. It was constantly referred to. Constantly mentioned by the broadcast. They were loud. Louder than the home fans. The Bills felt it and that's all that matters.

I went to the buffalo blowout this year and those fans are way different than miamis home base. They stood up the whole time-even on punts. It really is a football town similar to Green Bay who also took over the Christmas game. Look at the stands in any home game in Miami and our dope fans are sitting down the whole time and on their phones For the most part.
 
One of the downsides to having a location with the perfect weather in January is this.
Opposing fans, especially from cold/snowy areas, probably see this as one hell of a vacation get away.

Buffalo seems to have dedicated fans.

I've seen places like Dallas taken over by Pitt/49ers/etc teams that have that strong traveling fanbase.
As for the ST holders, I can't blame the average person selling to make a profit.

I knew it was going to happen, everyone knew it was going to happen. The biggest home game since 2008, the playoff game against the Ravens, the fans did not show up and it was the opposing team's home field. Several Bills players mentioned this at the end of the game.

I know what you're already going to say. "The Dolphins have to give us a reason to show up". Tonight WAS the reason.

The ball wasn't even kicked yet and the first thing Mike Tirico has to say is "Welcome to a Bills Mafia invasion of Miami" or something of that sort. Absolutely embarrassing.

I feel they are almost better off not playing a home playoff game and save the embarrassment of being humiliated on national television again. Buffalo or Pittsburgh would have dominated the stadium.

This team will never have a home field advantage during a playoff run and the playoffs. The heat isn't a factor, teams have already been conditioned by then and the Dolphins have a fanbase that doesn't show up.

Were YOU there? I was and yes it was overrun by Bills fans. And before you make the excuse "I live out of town screw that" most EVERY Bills fan there was out of town.
 
I can’t call out the fans. Why show up for this mess? Can you blame people for not wanting to throw their money away. As far as I’m concerned they are the smart ones who knew this was gonna happen

It's always like that in Miami especially with east coast teams, and especially New Yorkers, there are a lot of people from up north who live in Miami area.

Unfortunately, wait till enough of them get into the legislature, and Fla. will become a high income tax state.

Hey E, 100%, For the rest of the "folks" (you know who you are) ahhhh yesssss now I see, it's the fans fault that this team couldn't score in the second half, yup, that's it, in fact if more fans would have shown up, Tua would not have thrown two interceptions, Sieler would have gotten the ball stuck in his face mask instead of bouncing in the air, also most assuredly Cameron Goode would not have been injured and fallen into two other Dolphin players allowing for a kick returned for a TD. Oh yeah, before I forget, if the Miami fans would have packed the stadium, they would have scored at least 35 points in the second half, yup the fans fault.
