Max997 Posted November 21, 2014 Posted November 21, 2014 about as much as the early bowl games get with a few hundred fans in the stands
Dorkington Posted November 21, 2014 Posted November 21, 2014 We've been playing better on the road, so maybe not having a homecrowd will be good for us?
pepsicat17 Posted November 21, 2014 Posted November 21, 2014 The Carrier Dome would have been perfect and jam packed with fans. They can have NCAA games and high-lvl basketball but not football. Poor excuses and I dont understand why they would rather play in front of 5000 people (if they're lucky) then 40,000 people who would gladly pay for tickets. Don't get it.

There are a ton of Bills fans in Cuse that would have loved to see this game. Theres a ton of Jets fans there too. It's a mix of Bills, Giants, Jets, Steelers fans there so they would have loved this game

I think it is about a lot more than attendance numbers. And it isn't up to the Bills or the Jets, it is a league decision. I'm sure Bills would rather play closer to home and their fan base and in front of more fans in general, but as Russ said, they have a voice but not a real say. Edited November 21, 2014 by YoloinOhio
Bookie Man Posted November 21, 2014 Posted November 21, 2014 They should have put the game in Charlotte. There are so many transplants here. When the Bills played here in 09, it was just about 50/50 Bills fans. Maybe more.
Matt in KC Posted November 21, 2014 Posted November 21, 2014 At least they're moving the game away from NYC, not toward it. It looked like we'd finally get 8 real home games this year. London next year had better be an away game!

Detroit told my sister to email buffalo since no one is in office. The tickets should b honred. I have never and will never want to wish I'm still lived in Dumpoledo but if I did I would make the trip. A girl I've known all my life thru family friend and is originally from WNY moved t the area and is a Bills fan with her husband. This would have been the first bills game they have attended. And they are in Buffalo now. They'll end up driving home to Toledo then hopefully get to go to the game in Detroit since its an hour away.

Wayne Cubed Posted November 21, 2014 Posted November 21, 2014 Going off of precedent, when the Vikings played the Giants in 2010, tickets were free. They got 45,000 in attendance. Maybe they do something like that again.

Of course it probably won't be much different than it was in Toronto. This is the scenario I envisioned on Sunday at the Ralph. It's 4th and inches from the Jests 41 and they go for it (well at least line up to go for it)! The crowd is so shocked and excited that it erupts in cheer so loud it causes a false start, resulting in a punt.... As far as the 10,000 that will be in attendance at Ford Field, it really shouldn't be an issue.

The Real Buffalo Joe Posted November 21, 2014 Posted November 21, 2014 What do you think? Over under 30,000?

As of right now I can't find any info on how to get tickets (not that I'm going to be flying to Detroit) but I would guess under, unless they give them away. Even then, I would put 30k as the over under #. On 11/21/2014 at 7:10 PM, GreggyT said: "Have you any idea what the street value of that stadium is?!"

truth on hold Posted November 21, 2014 Posted November 21, 2014 On 11/21/2014 at 3:08 PM, PromoTheRobot said: If I were in town and tickets were $10, yeah I'd go. Why not? Do you not watch other teams on TV? Yeah good teams, especially AFC ones given playoff implication for bills. But 2 teams from out of the conference, neither of which are very good? Probably not. And that's just aTV. Takes a lot more effort to actually go to the game, and in this case on a weeknight.
The Real Buffalo Joe Posted November 21, 2014 Posted November 21, 2014 I'm surprised they're not charging like ten dollars a ticket for charity or something.
