The Plot: A Love Story Rooted in Bills Mafia Traditions
Holiday Touchdown: A Bills Love Story follows two families, the Quinns and the DeLucas, who’ve lived side by side for decades. Their homes sit in the shadow of Highmark Stadium, where their beloved Buffalo Bills play.
These families share a deep friendship, all thanks to their mutual love for the Bills. Every holiday season, they come together to celebrate the last home game before Christmas, turning it into a cherished tradition.
Meet the Main Characters
At the center is Morgan Quinn, a pediatric doctor with a heart for her community. Across the fence is Gabe DeLuca, the Bills’ VP of Stadium Development.
Morgan and Gabe have always been close—maybe a little too close, if you ask their families. Gabe’s been carrying a torch for Morgan for years, and honestly, it’s not exactly a secret.
Things take a turn when Morgan’s Uncle Tommy reveals that someone’s been quietly helping their family for over sixty years. This bit of family lore sends Morgan on a mission to uncover the identity of their mysterious benefactor.
She’s determined to give her uncle a Christmas he’ll never forget. Who doesn’t love a little mystery with their holiday cheer?
Behind the Scenes: A Production Boost for Western New York
Veteran filmmaker Andrew Gernhard produced the movie, and the impact on the local economy is already noticeable. The Buffalo Niagara Film Commission estimates the film’s economic boost at over $5 million.
It’s not hard to imagine this opening the door for more Hallmark productions in Western New York. That could mean even more attention—and business—for the area.
What the Producers Have to Say
Gernhard’s worked all over—Connecticut, the South, even overseas—but he’s got nothing but praise for Buffalo. He credits the Buffalo Niagara Film Commission for making the process smooth.
“We’re used to working in Connecticut. We’ve done shoots down south and overseas. So, we wanted to see what the area was like, see what the culture was like, see what the people were like. It went great for the first movie, and it’s even better on this movie, which is the Buffalo Bills movie, and it’s just been a wonderful experience,” Gernhard said.
