boater Posted December 10, 2018 Posted December 10, 2018 Prominent website leads with Buffalo in article highlighting poor attendance numbers. https://www.breitbart.com/sports/2018/12/09/weak-14-empty-seats-outnumber-fans-many-nfl-stadiums/ Lolz.. in Buffalo at least, I suggest poor attendance is solely related to a poor football record. But maybe I'm wrong. Is fan anger at spoiled millionaires a still a thing? Does racial strife suppress attendance? Or is it in Buffalo: because the Bills are well out of contention.
The_Dude Posted December 10, 2018 Posted December 10, 2018 I always thought the opposite. The Bills have a great attendance record for the lousy product they put on the field. My only explanation for this is that Buffalo is such a boring/rundown place that it’s the only thing to do. I mean for serious. There were more cows than people where I lived in WNY when I was a kid. Boring, desolate place. I figured the reason people attend is that it’s either attend the Bills game or watch the cows.

Weather and job opportunities are a bit weak but otherwise I think it's a terrific place. Good education in the area, 2 pro sports teams, decent entertainment, a lot of outdoor activities with water and rural and touristy areas within a reasonable drive. A lot of good people and the cost of living is lower than a lot of other areas. Had a blast growing up there and living there as a young adult. Edit: and you can get around without being trapped in horrible traffic Edited December 11, 2018 by keepthefaith 1
