Hannnah Buehler reported that it could be as much as 62,000 seats. Wouldn't have to worry about sellouts. I would guess season tickets would be capped out at a certain number, say 50-52,000 and the rest would be individual game tickets. The secondary market prices would jump through the roof too. And there would be a segment of the fanbase who might get squeezed out, but that might be part of the plan too. I wouldn't doubt PSE would like family friendly to be a thing again. Ultimately, I think it gets boosted to the 65,000 you suggest. Pittsburgh is 66,000 or so. That's what I thought the Bills new joint would be built to hold as well. Rich Foods, Key Bank, some law firms...

Is Buff continuously pursuing those companies to HQ or plant a flag in the area? I don’t know. Part of being attractive is the area having its stuff together, in general.

Schumer and Gillibrand are good “friends” to have in this regard.

Disagree. Depends on his route running and ability to catch contested passes. Michael Thomas ran slightly slower at the combine than Davis did and he’s a number one. Davis is in a room full of great route runners to learn from, he has excellent hands and body control. I could see him growing into a one. But Diggs will be around for a while, health permitting, so it won’t be necessary.

Yep and WNY will get its stadium like the city got there baseball stadiums. Might take some inside pool trade-off’s between politicos, but I’m not concerned. Everyone knew a new stadium was on the horizon when the Pegula’s bought the team. This isn’t out of left field. Folks need to calm down and stop constantly worrying. It’s a drag.

That’s been part of what’s held WNY back for decades too. Change is life; and life will go on, and in good ways, even if differently than some might be used to.

They should test every player, coach and staff member frequently, vaxxed or unvaxxed.

She didn’t get hit until after the other guy squared off on him and she jumped in between them, swinging. She did not get hit before that.

Same thing happened last season and he was fine when the real games started.

He didn’t hit her back though. She got hit when she aggressively jumped between the guy and her boyfriend when they were engaged. Don’t know why some keep overlooking that part. Context is everything.

He got knocked out because of her foolishness. The least she could do is try to look out for him in the end. If she could control herself nobody would’ve gotten hit.

Yep.

Ultimately, ideally, no one should be in anyone’s face for things to escalate. The boyfriend should have gotten off his tail when his woman was putting herself in harm’s way jumping in some strangers’ face. She didn’t get hit until she jumped in the middle of the two men, swinging at the guy, and made herself a different type of threat; she made it two on one. The guy doesn’t know what the two of them are capable of. It’s ugly. And it’s unfortunate. Hopefully, lessons are learned all around. But that woman is bad news for her boyfriend.

The Enterouge movie

She slapped him and he didn’t even hit her at that point. He drew back his fist which caused her to back off. He didn’t go after her. But her boyfriend squared up and drew the other guy’s attention. Then her dumb azz jumped in the middle and looks to have tried to hit him again with her cap while he was engaged with the boyfriend. That’s when she got punched. At that point she already slapped him once. Now he’s got two people in his face pushing and poking and whatnot? Obviously she was choosing to continue being aggressive while two men were engaged. The outnumbered guy doesn’t have time to pick and choose at that point. I’m not getting knocked out by some dude because I’m trying to fend off his belligerent, violent girlfriend. It’s a uncontrolled street fight at that point. I would assume the worst that could happen and I would fight like that. Period.

1.4 billion is plenty of coin. A cheaper option doesn’t mean devoid of bells and whistles. I would bet the new joint will have many modern features inside and outside the place.

I can dig it. A lot of people singing that same song.

From studies done by some climate change researchers Buffalo temps/weather will be warmer in general and particularly more mild in the winter than it is now.

Those polls don’t matter. The polls that matter are the ones the Pegula’s did. And the most important question wouldn’t be roof/no roof. How much would you be willing to pay for tickets is the more important question. Folks want something for nothing. Put a roof on ticket prices will go up more than they already will. Can most fans afford an exponential hike in ticket prices? Ultra-expensive PSL’s? There are reasons outside of preference that would lead the Pegula’s to build an open air joint. That reason is cost compared to projected returns. Does them no good to propose a facility that most of their fans can’t afford to enter or that the available local corporate sponsorships won’t help to pay off the debt. It makes no sense for the state/county either.

You act like there were 30,000 people there. Stop it. Official attendance was over 75,000 in what, at the time, was an 80,000 seat stadium. That would be a sellout at the current stadium capacity; and the new stadium capacity will probably be less than than the current 73,000 seats.

A roof in OP makes no sense and if they did spend the extra money to add one many people on here clamoring for it would be priced out of sitting under it. If the weather is that much of an issue for some stay home and watch on TV. You can be super-comfortable there.

13-4 or 14-3. Washington will be a tricky game. Bad matchup for the o-line if they don’t improve on the interior. Allen better wear track shoes. If Fitzmagic shows up they could win. Think they split with the Pats Bucs could be a “L” in a close one. I think they beat the Chiefs and the Titans. I really want to say 14-3, but the extra game is tough and could lead to one of those stupid losses later in the year.

But the reports are it will be an open air venue in OP. Why do you and others keep talking about a roof? That ship is out to sea. Will you show up for games in the stadium they will actually build or enjoy games at home?

I misunderstood you. My bad. That said, I still have no idea, but I don’t see how it would be a big cost difference. I would hate to watch a game in a totally closed environment though. I could just stay home.

My initial guess was a soccer style stadium, but downtown. It will be in OP, but I think the new joint will be in that style. 65,000 seats, a Bills museum, restroom stations in the parking lot, and video screens too.
