papazoid Posted August 28, 2015 Posted August 28, 2015 how long before russ sells the naming rights to a revenue generating sponsor ?
K D Posted August 28, 2015 Posted August 28, 2015 They probably won't until we get a new stadium imo. If they haven't yet then they probably won't. Id be ok with Mighty Taco field @ Ralph Wilson stadium for example if they do decide to sell the rights
nucci Posted August 28, 2015 Posted August 28, 2015 Pegula said he won't do this. He wants to keep the name to honor Ralph.
machine gun kelly Posted August 28, 2015 Posted August 28, 2015 This is a business, and I personally want Pegula generating a nice profit which he will infuse part of it back into the team. He's already demonstrated with paying for top coaching talent, and a spending spree in free agency. Â Mighty Taco is not a large enough corporation to pay the millions in naming rights. It would be a much larger company that wants the free advertising when the games are on TV. Â Not living in Buffalo, I'm not aware of any multi-million dollar companies, but a national company could do it. I could see a company like Pfizer buying the naming rights, especially if we turn the team around and get more nationally televised games. Pfizer is an international billion dollar company that is based out of NYC. This is just one example and I ahve no inside knowledge. It's not going to be a taco joint with 25 locations.
shane nelson Posted August 28, 2015 Posted August 28, 2015 Pegula said he won't do this. He wants to keep the name to honor Ralph. Â Agreed. Stated position is not the sell the naming rights of the Ralph to honor R Wilson. Lets face it, our owners are first class
8-8 Forever? Posted August 28, 2015 Posted August 28, 2015 Â Agreed. Stated position is not the sell the naming rights of the Ralph to honor R Wilson. Lets face it, our owners are first class our owners are filthy rich. naming rights are irrelevant when you are a multi billionaire. the whole Bills thing is purely charity on the part of the Pegs. give back from enormous fracking driven wealth he basically fell into. good for him. I'd rather be lucky than good any day. go bills. thank goodness for the Pegs.
billsfan_34 Posted August 28, 2015 Posted August 28, 2015 This stadium and most likely the new one will be Ralph Wilson Satdium. He wants to honor Ralph and doesnt care about putting a name like Moog or whatever for a few bucks.
sodbuster Posted August 28, 2015 Posted August 28, 2015 I'm so glad the sale went the way it did. Imagine... Â "Good morning folks, Solomon Wilcotts and Spero Dedes here at Trump Stadium in Orchard Park, NY..." Â *shudders*

The day the team has a new stadium is a perfect time to start realizing this untapped revenue. Edited August 28, 2015 by stony
Tuco Posted August 28, 2015 Posted August 28, 2015 Any deal right now would only be for the 7 years left on the Bills lease. It's not likely any big corporation is going to want to enter a big money agreement until a new stadium with a new, longer lease is in effect.

Â *shudders* Â imagine the how long the gate lines would be screening for proof of citizenship....

You just might need a little more experience in life if little things like that make you shudder.
BuffaloHokie13 Posted August 28, 2015 Posted August 28, 2015 (edited) Yeah, I'm guessing separate names for the Stadium and Field. I wouldn't be upset if the new stadium had Ralph Wilson Field and a revenue generating sponsor for the stadium (maybe General Mills?) It'd get nicknamed the big Cheerio Edited August 28, 2015 by BuffaloHokie13
Saxum Posted August 28, 2015 Posted August 28, 2015 Well if the Bills moved to LA the stadium could be called "Ralphs" and get named after Supermarket chain but since the Bills are not moving maybe we can get them to expand to WNY.
PromoTheRobot Posted August 28, 2015 Posted August 28, 2015 Solar City Field....2020'ish....Was just thinking about that.
ricojes Posted August 28, 2015 Posted August 28, 2015 Well if the Bills moved to LA the stadium could be called "Ralphs" and get named after Supermarket chain but since the Bills are not moving maybe we can get them to expand to WNY. Wilson sporting goods would work as well...
Jamie Nails Posted August 28, 2015 Posted August 28, 2015 William C Rott and sons stadium at Pacillo's Fitness Gear Field.
