In California, public officials are starting to say there will no fans or even sports allowed until Thanksgiving, at the earliest. If California disallows like they do a lot of things (other than paying lots of taxes) and other states don't California teams will play elsewhere. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as Allegiant is handing over millions of dollars a year, Davis will be happy. If Allegiant goes belly up, there will be any number of companies fighting over whose name goes on the stadium next. I know the only thing that matters is the cold hard cash. I'm just saying Allegiant Airlines has a HORRIBLE reputation for poor quality and service. Maybe it actually fits.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think the NFL will take this by a case by case basis. The commissioner and NFLPA will want all teams to be united in however things play-out IMO. That would mean the very real possibility of no fans at all to start the season at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The governor though has made comments that right now he does not really see stadiums being filled come September. But again, we are in a fluid situation so who knows what things will look like come summer and early fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to yell with all caps, how about sending me a PM. childish. Have a good day and I saw the original in the movies. Not sure if you can say that in 1976, and so on. Stop being silly. It was more about the Empire of the Patriots over the last 20 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 It really does look like it should be a Raiders' stadium. It is very impressive. That is what $1.9 B will get you. I wonder what the final price tag with be for the Rams' stadium. Last time I heard, it was about $5 B. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I consider myself a pretty big Star Wars fan, that can answer most any trivia about the movies (esp. the OT) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsfaninChicago Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 I went to vegas twice at the start of the year. The under construction stadium looks amazing in person. I can’t wait and hope to see the finished product when the Bills play there when the world starts moving again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
