Guffalo Posted September 30, 2013 Posted September 30, 2013 But who actually takes a dump at a Bills game? The Bills
mrags Posted September 30, 2013 Posted September 30, 2013 It was a sewer line break and sewage spillage into the concourse from about section 120 to 140. I don't know where the initial break was , but **** still flows downhill. i can't tell you what the rest of the areas looked like but I am in section 123 and use 2 different bathrooms. 1 at 120ish and another about 127ish. I used them both yesterday. Neither were that bad. I get where the flow is coming from but it really wasn't that bad. It wasn't "muddy" water coming up. It seriously looked like a clean pipe burst. In the concourse right outside 123 it wasn't bad. There was a streaming trickle that you could walk into, trust me, many people did, without getting your feet wet. It wasn't deep enough to crest over the rubber on your sneakers. As far as any other spot in the stadium, I couldn't tell you. But this wasn't bad.
RyanC883 Posted September 30, 2013 Posted September 30, 2013 The Bills response http://www.buffalobi...a4-17b7f9bb63f2 Haz Mat had to be called in, that could not be pretty Haz Mat prob called in to sanitize the floors after they got it cleaned up. (I assume).
RyanC883 Posted September 30, 2013 Posted September 30, 2013 I would love a Dome. Could host the Final 4, Super Bowl (hotel room #'s depending) etc. Use it year round for concerts, monster truck stuff, circus, WWF or WWE (I don't got to most of these things, but tons of people do). If they are going to spend taxpayer money (I'm not saying they should or shouldn't, but if they do), at least spend it on something that can be used year round, employ workers year round, and be a benefit to the area year round.

Personally I don't want the Bills playing indoors. We're a blue collar, cold weather city and we have the reputation of living our lives this way. We need to keep that up. A new stadium with a retractable roof that would cover the fans but leave the field of play under the elements would be the best option IMO.

And most Bills fans don't want to sit in the cold and rain anymore. And our so-called cold weather advantage is a myth too. Don't waste $200-300 million on a something that gets used twice a year. Build a permanent dome. PTR

PTR if we built a Dallas type of stadium, or even a Seahawks type of stadium it would cover the fans from the rain/snow and that alone would keep things warmer.
Steve O Posted September 30, 2013 Posted September 30, 2013 Wait a second... I drank beer... Waded through the scum.... And I am still alive.... Deal with the BS and enjoy the win Pansy's!!! me too
PromoTheRobot Posted September 30, 2013 Posted September 30, 2013 (edited) if we built a Dallas type of stadium, or even a Seahawks type of stadium it would cover the fans from the rain/snow and that alone would keep things warmer. But then you can't host year-round events. Has to be a dome. People bring up hosting a Super Bowl. That is a long shot. But here is a list of things you could have in a Buffalo domed stadium: 1) Bills games 2) UB games 3) NCAA basketball tournament (which the FNC already gets) 4) NCAA frozen four 5) college bowl game (revive the International Bowl?) 6) annual Sabres/Leafs game 7) Monster trucks!!!

PTR you can have all of that here with or without a dome. The Arena hosts NCAA events as it is every few years. I've never seen monster trucks there but I'm sure they do it. Um.... Sabres and Leads definitely play there. There is really no reason why we could t build a retractable domed stadium or an open stadium and still take advantage of all that. Hell, pretty sure Syracuse and WVU played in the snow last year in NY for a game.
MyHorseAteTheKid Posted September 30, 2013 Posted September 30, 2013 Would you tear down your home if you had a broken sewer line? No, you'ld get it fixed!!! Until the Bills can come up with a plan where the NYS tax payers aren't footing the bill for a new stadium.. Then you make repairs as needed...
KD in CA Posted September 30, 2013 Posted September 30, 2013 Today might have been one of the most disgusting things I have experienced as a Bills fan, and that is saying a lot considering they make us pee in troths. The restrooms and plumbing were out for the entire tunnel end zone and Bills sideline in the lower bowl. The Bills closed all restrooms between sections 120 and 140 and the entire concourse was an inch deep in raw sewage. Those poor girls wearing flip flops, it was a public safety nightmare. I was waiting for a Niagara Falls of filth to start working its way down the aisle stairs. But the absolute worst part, the horrible terrible part of this story... I didn't drink a beer the entire game as I didn't want to travel through the **** storm to the other side of the stadium to take a piss. Who wears flip flops to a football game?

marauderswr80 Posted September 30, 2013 Posted September 30, 2013 I was had at monster trucks!!!! Build a dome!
davspo Posted September 30, 2013 Posted September 30, 2013 I don't know who's to blame, if anyone, or whether it was clean water or not. From what I seen (section 132) it didn't "look" too bad, but it was vile to say the least. Walked into the bathrrom, there was about 3 inches of this stuff on the floor, compared to about an inch or so in the concourse. I left the can when it started to seep through my sneaker. All in all, bottom line is that the stadium only has to be ready for 7 real home games a year and it wasn't. I was pretty sure the health department was going to shut it down, but they didn't. I think the real question is, assuming it was just an unforeseeable problem, will the Bills (currently 22 minion under the cap which equals an extra 22 mil in RW's pocket) do anything to give back to the fans. Even a simple gesture like a $10 rebate- ticket was over $100, or something off an upcoming game. It would be be a good guesture to say, hey we're sorry for the digusting inconvenience. My guess- nothing will be done, we will be told to suck it up and we should be thanking them for keeping the team here. btw I would guess about 15- 20 thousand fans effected. Half probably do not have there stub. So you are looking at total cost to RW and the bills of about $100,00 to $150,000. An alturnative that all the fans would perfer is to make Jarius Byrd clean it up. Since he is an employee and cannot perform the task he is paid to do, perhaps a job reassignment would be in order. We could only dream, but I think that would heal his feet very quickly, and he would be back to "100%".
KD in CA Posted September 30, 2013 Posted September 30, 2013 How many inches of raw sewage are normally on the mens' room at a Bills game?
Boatdrinks Posted September 30, 2013 Posted September 30, 2013 Sounds gross. What the heck is a troth?
mrags Posted September 30, 2013 Posted September 30, 2013 How many inches of raw sewage are normally on the mens' room at a Bills game? at least a half inch. So it was really only a 25% increase.
