The weather for the Patriots/Bills game Monday night was a sight to behold.
The Patriots earned a monster 14-10 win over their AFC East rival on the road, but it was the weather conditions that really might have stolen the show. (RELATED: David Hookstead Is The True King In The North When It Comes To College Football)

Even before a single snap was played, it was clear fans were in for a wild time thanks to the elements. The wind gusts were high and the snow was falling. Watch a video from the Bills below.

I mean, look at this video from the parking lot and tell me it wasn’t absolutely awesome conditions for a football game.

Now, would I want to run out there and play in those conditions? Probably not. As a fan, do I think it’s awesome to see wild weather conditions unfold?
Without a doubt. There’s nothing better than football being played in the snow. Now, the wind is a bit tougher to see on the TV, but it still helps set the stakes.
Just how strong was the wind? The gusts were shaking the goal posts!
Heavy wind is in the forecast for tonight’s #Patriots–#Bills game in Buffalo. Sustained winds of 25-35 MPH, with gusts as high as 55 MPH. 💨💨

Finally, I love this old tweet from Mac Jones about how he’d never seen snow in his life. Well, that’s certainly no longer the case!
I have never seen snow 😳
