Terry must want 3/4 of the stadium empty.  

 

Only to get into family center.   I think it’s cool most places say people under 16must be accompanied by an adult, here parents must be  accompanied by a child. he is not stopping drinking but he doesn’t want someone drunk ruining the family center for kids.

Terry wants to ensure intoxicated people cannot enter.  At the field house each week, The Bills will be bringing back former Bills to people to meet.  There will be no charge to enter and no charge for autographs.

Hahahahaha

Good luck with that.   

 

I see a half empty stadium

Sounds good. 

 

Surprised to hear its (supposedly) east of Buffalo, though. I thought for sure it'd be downtown. 

Hope they don't build it too far to the East. I don't have much interest in driving to Rochester for a game. 

 

If its east of Buffalo, I'm thinking maybe Batavia. I believe there was talk of a possibility of a stadium built there IIRC.

....think downtown would be a logistical traffic nightmare with access from three directions...would need mega millions of Federal funding to revamp the highway system....by the time they approved it, we're talking 2061 at the earliest......without that revamping, imagine going to a Bills game with the Sabres in town the same night.....I'm thinking if you went to the home opener, probably don't make it home for Thanksgiving.....Batavia is too far as maintaining Buffalo lore....all they have is the Muckdogs which just folded....probably an eastern Buffalo suburb is a better guess..............

Shoot, Bills fans start drinking by age 15.

So your source wasn’t fired then?

 

He said his source was fired by the Bills last year but still has connections at OBD.

That all sounds very cool, but what exactly is “east of Buffalo”? 

I was using the idea of easy access to Toronto AND Rochester as the binding factors.  Meaning it can't be too far from the 90 and not too far from either the Peace Bidge or the Lewiston-Queenston bridge.  A place like Batavia while east of Buffalo is certainly too far from the border to be considered easy access for Toronto.   UB is technically "east" of Buffalo as is Cheektowaga, as is Orchard Park if you are creative enough.  To have the retail he was discussing almost necessitates that it be near SOME center of population.  Putting it at (or adjacent to) UB also makes sense in reference to the discussed light rail extension to UB which would then effectively link the Pegula empire together.  UB is also the sort of place that can absorb a big parking lot without it looking out of place when it's not a football day.  Beaver Stadium, for example, is on the edge of campus and has acres of parking which are just used for other purposes the rest of the non-football year.  The current Boulevard Mall (whose parent company is struggling mightily I might add) also might offer a large enough footprint of land in an already commerical area that is on the planned light rail extension, in between 2 exits of the 290, bracketed on all sides by existing 4 lane roads and essentially at the end of the 990.

 

I'm hoping they don't park it way out in the boonies where there will only be 1 primary access road.  If they put it much further out than Transit Rd. then the 90 becomes the main road for almost everyone.  Obviously there are other routes, just like there are other routes to NEF but NEF has 2 highways in immediate proximity and a 4 lane and largely empty rt 5 to serve it. 

 

Of course they will be coy with exact locations for awhile so as not to bid up of the price of the real estate they want to buy.
