MattM Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 I haven't gotten my usual renewal package form OBD yet this year--anyone else, or did I just miss something? Perhaps they were waiting to set prices based on the Toronto deal news being reported elsewhere this morning?
JÂy RÛßeÒ Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 I renewed mine in December (and got 2 T-shirts for it )
K-No Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 My BBTO rep said that the Toronto decision was indeed the reason that invoices were delayed.
PromoTheRobot Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 Probably no individual ticket price increase but now we pay for 10 games.
CodeMonkey Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 Probably no individual ticket price increase but now we pay for 10 games. What has it generally been for, 8 games? So roughly a 25% increase more than likely.
SDS Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 What has it generally been for, 8 games? So roughly a 25% increase more than likely. There has only been 2 preseason games in Toronto.
CodeMonkey Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 There has only been 2 preseason games in Toronto. So 12% or so increase then.
stuckinny Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 I wonder if they only delayed it a year to see how much bitching people do at the renewal price!
PromoTheRobot Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 What has it generally been for, 8 games? So roughly a 25% increase more than likely. Well let's take my Rockpile seats as an example. $25 x 9 games = $225 per seat. 10 games makes it $250. I have 8 seats so another game increases my cost $200. Now if they increase the price to $30 per game that's another $400. PTR

NoSaint Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 Man it is hard to believe any NFL team has a $25 ticket anymore seriously.
BillnutinHouston Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 Man it is hard to believe any NFL team has a $25 ticket anymore My main reaction after processing this, is fear. How can an NFL team in Buffalo be sustainable long term with ticket prices on that scale?
CodeMonkey Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 My main reaction after processing this, is fear. How can an NFL team in Buffalo be sustainable long term with ticket prices on that scale? Mainly the insane TV contract money they get and Mr. Wilson carrying no debt. But I suspect new ownership that is carrying significant debt would not be able to keep prices that low.
PromoTheRobot Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 Man it is hard to believe any NFL team has a $25 ticket anymore For comparison, the cheapest season ticket for the Patriots is $65 with stadium parking costing $40. PTR
stuckinny Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 I would htink the rock pile will be going up in price now that there will be another scoreboard at the other end. The main disadvantage to those was not being able to see a replay wihtout turning around 180 degrees
Rubes Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 I renewed mine in December (and got 2 T-shirts for it ) Me too. Not exactly the greatest quality T-shirts, though.
DieHardFan Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 Just so it's clear: Season Ticket "renewal in December" meant give us $25 per ticket and we will either take your ticket to the Miami game and give you one of the clubs we can't sell or a $1.50 tshirt. Can't tell you if there will be a ticket price increase (or other changes) and BTW the $25 is non-refundable. But you will get all the koolaid you can drink.
JÂy RÛßeÒ Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 Me too. Not exactly the greatest quality T-shirts, though. Yeah, kinda light weight. I really wanted the upgrade to club seats for the fish game but I responded too late
PromoTheRobot Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 Yeah, kinda light weight. I really wanted the upgrade to club seats for the fish game but I responded too late I gotta say that was the best perk the Bills offered. We had to get down to our t-shirts it was so warm under those heat lamps while the great unwashed froze.
