Im glad you enjoyed your times! Been a ticket holder since ’17. Been a solid way for my son and I to enjoy time together. Been some great times! Helps when the team drafts a generational player the 2nd year of your tickets! The good part about where my tickets are located is the average fan should be able to afford them. $2500 is a lot of money, but affordable. Issue becomes paying it. Right away? 20 months? 6 years, but incur interest? individual game ticket prices were shown, although I didn’t ask questions about them. Seemed like they were within a couple of hundred bucks of what I’m paying now. That was a huge concern for me, what those were going to cost. Not a big jump surprisingly. But I guess I’ll know for sure when next years invoice is sent. Incidentals can chew up some good money. Parking, lot food and beverage, stadium food snd beverage. And time. I jokingly told my PSL salesman what a heavy lift it’d be to try and sell these in the drought days! My belief? New stadium wouldn’t be built during a drought. Would fans cough up $10k per ticket for the PSL? Much easier when you have a good product on the field, especially a team that just went to the AFC Championship Game. Who knows what the future holds. I did consider a team that isn’t very good and HAVING to buy my season tickets because of the PSL. Gone are the days the team stinks and season tickets purchased plummets. Now, you’ll have to endure the product on the field because you’re not going to drop your PSL. Without the PSL you could drop your season tickets and then just buy them again when the team is good. 15 years ago, I’m not going this because of cost. 10 years from now? Probably not. I’m glad I’m able to while I’m young enough to go and enjoy.

My intention was to share what my seats cost. And I only have TWO seats. I guess you’d really have an issue with fans who have spent 5k or 8k for seats. My friend spent 8k a seat…for 10 seats and paying it off in 20 months because she set aside money for this. I had no intention to “show off” what I’m spending. Worked EXTREMELY hard to get where I am in life. Not going to excuse that in any way. Funny thing is, these are the cheapest seats in the house so far… Oh…it’s only $200 for BOTH PSL’s a month. 5k for both seats…1K down and owe 4k. $200 x 20 months is…and I swear, I’ve checked this twice…is $4k. Pretty sure your math ain’t mathing.

Sat through it yesterday. My section upper deck should be mostly unaffected by snow/rain. Looked at end zone seats also. Was on the cusp of not getting direct weather, mostly because of the overhang of deck above. What they said was they built the stadium to have weather protection, but can’t guarantee you won’t. It all depends on how the weather hits the stadium. Gonna be interesting how it works when open. Can’t wait until it is!

Doesn’t this happen a lot? Giving us hope for the next season? My guess? When they decide to seek money for a new building, they miraculously will get better… 😂

Asked that yesterday while choosing my tickets. Yes, Abbott will remain closed and there are no plans for elevated walkways. I do believe elevated walkways could be used at certain locations in the lots. We park Lot 7 and are at the mercy of the crosswalks delaying traffic egress. It would be great if they could figure a way to allow traffic and pedestrians to flow, not sure they can.

I asked if the further from the fifty upper deck sections would be less and the sales guy said he didn’t know. I can’t imagine they are more line 2k further out.

So…all set!! Section 409. 2,500 per ticket PSL. Down payment of $1000 on the spot if choosing the 20 month payment option @$200 per month, or the M&T Bank finance option of 6 years at about $72 bucks per month and paying about $1,500 in interest. Seats have great leg room. Wider than current lower bowl seats. Only concern? Will be close to being underneath press box and up against the back wall of the section. Wonder if there will be problems with the sound? Otherwise, out of the weather perfectly! Had the option to look elsewhere for seats. End zones are the same PSL fees. Looked at both end zones and almost pulled the trigger on Section 150 aisle seats. 4 rows from the concourse. Liked them based on the ease to get to the seats and leave. Other endzone was cool seats next to some club seats? Not sure what the club is, but they looked like normal seats. Issue was, it was an end of the aisle seat up against the club seats which has a short divider between the club sections up against the seat…don’t want the rabble mixing with the club goers! 🤣 Was there about two hours. Didn’t feel pressured at all. Nice experience. Was concerned where my seats would be in the new stadium and cost! Figured it would be 1K to 2k based on what other tix were going for. Was off by just 500 bucks. Pretty much took my seat at The Ralph and put me in the new stadium! Pretty happy! Gonna miss some of the people I sit near, not sure if they will all end up in the same area or not. Parking for regular season ticket holders will be where the current lots are now (non ECC). There will be 3 new large lots up against the stadium that is for club seat owners. Eventually, the current stadium will be razed for additional parking.

Didn’t see any of this. Thanks for posting! I should be a bit less than $2500. I’m a section or so over from to what’s reported in upper deck. Unless I’m missing something. edit: Wonder if the 5K I’ve heard was for two tickets then…

I’ve heard 5 years 10% interest. You also have 0% if you can pay it off prior to stadium opening. Unsure of what the cutoff date is to pay it off.

Going today. Currently sit section 333 halfway up. Nervous how much the PSL’s will be. Heard 5k per seat…. Can’t believe that to be true.

RIP.

I don’t know. No posturing by his camp like Cook. So I believe a contract is being worked on. Can they actually get one done? If one is done, Is that at the expense of signing Cook? Yeah, we have 29 million dead cap next year (heard that here, not sure the numbers), so feasibly next year should be better cap wise. With only a little over 4 million cap space, Beane needs to do something to sign the draft class and most likely a few bottom tier FA’s to fill holes. Not sure who is left to restructure.

Feel thin at CB. Wonder if we sign Rasul or not. Dane isn’t a starter, is he? Don’t see a Benford contract for the sake of cap space. Wouldn’t provide enough room. Edit: sportrac had us at $4.42 million in space. Where would we be if we didn’t have the cap purge last year??

Love Matt, but he’s been off the field quite a bit recently. If he plays lights out, the Bills could reverse field and sign him after next season. If, they got their out. Unless he plays absolute lights out and doesn’t have a single injury, this is his last season. Don’t see the team rolling the dice on him regardless how well he plays.

It will be interesting seeing what the NFL does with the schedule. Im sure we will be early season prime time with one of the big games. I was so pumped we added these guys, more Hoecht than the other guy. Now we are without them and it’ll take time to ramp them up after a 6 week layoff. Great.
