BUFFALO, N.Y. — Residents flood North Park Theatre's doors, getting tickets to enter the movie premier "UnBILLievable!"

The screenplay is about a dysfunctional family coming together for a watch party to see their favorite team, the Buffalo Bills, play in the Super Bowl. 

Fans and cast members stepped onto the red and blue carpet for photos. On the other side of the room, movie merchandise is sold. 

Scott Ruben is the Writer, Co-Director, and Lead Actor. 

"I've been obsessed with the Bills, like most of us, since I was 5 years old," Ruben says. "But it explores all those things we go through to keep being fans." 

Lead Actress Mel Gorham says the cast filmed for 31 days, and each day brought lots of laughter.  

"I'm the Mother. I play Edie Rubenski. I'm working with the greatest people- comic geniuses," Gorham says. "I felt so good in my shoes, and I was working with people that didn't see any defect in me. They just let me be me."

The cast are all old college buddies. Lead Actor Chiz Chisolm says their friend Scott called them one day, asking them to be in a movie Bills fans can relate to. 

"It is a love letter to The City of Buffalo," Chisolm says. "I said okay. He said, 'Well, don't you want to read the script?' I said, 'Not if you wrote it. If you wrote the script, I'm in.'"

Regardless of the emotional roller coaster, these Bills fans say they went through this season, they will always love and support their beloved Buffalo Bills.
