Graham adds that suites are nearly sold out.A limit on season-tickets sales would protect fans who want to purchase single-game tickets." Edited April 23, 2015 by YoloinOhio
johnnychemo Posted April 23, 2015 Posted April 23, 2015 But wait...we need the blackout rule because nobody will buy tickets if the games are on TV!!!!!
billsfanmiami(oh) Posted April 23, 2015 Posted April 23, 2015 Good thing i have my 6! Man it will be fun if we become a winner again. These "lean" years have been trying at times as a season ticket holder living out of state that usually makes every game. I know lots of others in the same boat hope we're all rewarded in the next few years. Nothing beats a big W at the Ralph!
BustaTimes Posted April 23, 2015 Posted April 23, 2015 How can they cap the season tickets when they haven't even broke the record yet Sounds like tickets aren't selling fast and they're trying to artificially generate demand
gmanbfan Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 Because previous record was in a stadium that sat 80 000. Now pretty much at same amount of seasons in a stadium that sits slightly over 70 000. Won't be many left for individuals. Also, they will probably sell out every game, and they sell individuals at a higher price per ticket than seasons, so they actually would want to have individual game tickets to generate more money.

NoSaint Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 Why not sell the stadium out? It is pretty common practice. I say go for it
USMCBillsFan Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 I let my seasons go this year in section 127 because I just couldn't afford them. Looked yesterday to see if there were any upper's that were cheaper and according to the website all 100 and 200 seats are sold and the uppers are almost as expensive as my 100 level seats were last year. Seats that my friends got for 300 last year in the 300 section are going for 550+ this year. Damn...
BillsFan-4-Ever Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 and with all this EJ sucks talk who would have thunk it?
prissythecat Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 and with all this EJ sucks talk who would have thunk it? So the Bills are selling tickets like hot cakes because of EJ?
Leroi Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 and with all this EJ sucks talk who would have thunk it? Imagine if EJ was actually a capable QB. Ticket sales would be through the roof. This is just the beginning. The Bills have been re-born!! Imo
K D Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 scalpers will make enough this year to put their kids through college...or buy drugs, whatever it is that scalpers do in their free time

May Day 10 Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 If anyone is on the fence, get them now. Really. It'll be the same situation as the Sabres. I know people who were indecisive back in 2007, didnt pull the trigger, and they have been on that waiting list for years.
BillsFan-4-Ever Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 So the Bills are selling tickets like hot cakes because of EJ? I am pretty sure it's not because of Meh or Tyrod
Wagon Circler Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 The Sabres have a waiting list? How is that even possible? They have been unwatchable for 2 years. Do people close their eyes?
May Day 10 Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 (edited) The Sabres have a waiting list? How is that even possible? They have been unwatchable for 2 years. Do people close their eyes? This is why I suggest getting them now. The line of perceived perpetual will not easily be crossed the other way. Once we are past it, and the Bills have 1 or 2 decent competitive seasons and the resell market far exceeds face value.... people will keep them even during a few bad years. Nobody wants to lose their license to be in the building. Edited April 24, 2015 by May Day 10
Augie Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 scalpers will make enough this year to put their kids through college...or buy drugs, whatever it is that scalpers do in their free time Or unknowingly pay for the drugs for their kids in college.
Fadingpain Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 Of course tickets are moving fast. The ownership change has resulted in the most promising Bills lineup in two decades.
