Some interesting stuff (at least to me) in this article about one of the Bills' lawyers - - here's a few excerpts:

Born in Potenza, Italy, in 1957, Schiavone grew up watching shows like Bonanza and Perry Mason dubbed in Italian, and seeing movies like Ben-Hur, also dubbed, at the only movie theater in town, which his uncle managed. He estimates he saw Charlton Heston’s gladiator epic 13 times.

“There was never any threat to relocate the team outside of Western New York,” Schiavone says. “From day one, Mr. Wilson, the owner, was committed to negotiating an extension of the lease that was mutually beneficial to the people of Western New York and to the Buffalo Bills. And at the outset, the Bills expressed their desire to the state that a new stadium was not economically feasible, either to the state or to the Bills.
