BUFFALO, N.Y. -- Joe Andreessen, a lifelong Buffalo Bills fan, wore a Matt Milano jersey on top of his layers while tailgating at a Bills home game less than three years ago. Bundling up is essential for Bills fans in the winter, especially during the hours spent tailgating in the stadium parking lots.

But for Andreessen, Bills game days are being taken in a bit differently.

Now, instead of wearing a Bills jersey outside Highmark Stadium as a fan, Andreessen dons his own No. 44 jersey playing for his hometown team.
