shane nelson Posted June 22, 2020 Posted June 22, 2020 I have been a Bills season ticket holder for many years. I live in NJ and also have Giants season tickets, mostly for my family to use. I received a letter from the Giants today allowing me to furlough my 2020 seats with no impact to my PSL. Has anyone heard of the Bills doing the same thing? And if you are interested I took the Giants up on the offer.
Mc1320 Posted June 22, 2020 Posted June 22, 2020 I was going to call my ticket rep with the Bills this week and ask they delay the last 25% payment for 2020 since I doubt we will be anywhere close to full capacity even if they allow some fans in.

Should we send OBD Goldie Gardiner's and Mike Collins' phone numbers? Those two won't budge until they hit their quotas!
jimmy10 Posted June 22, 2020 Posted June 22, 2020 That makes a ton of sense. I hope the Bills, and the rest of the league, adopt the same policy.

wolfpack78 Posted June 23, 2020 Posted June 23, 2020 I am an Ohio State season ticket holder and can confirm they've implemented the same policy. This was supposed to be a seat selection year (you pick your seats for the next five seasons), but they've also pushed that a year so as to not punish folks not renewing this year for health/safety concerns.
Justin C Posted June 23, 2020 Posted June 23, 2020 Illinois just announced their Phase 4 plan starting Friday, which allows 20% capacity for outdoor sporting events. If numbers improve they might go up. Hope it is the same in New York. Of course we have ***** shows going on in Texas, Arizona and Florida now so who knows.
PromoTheRobot Posted June 23, 2020 Posted June 23, 2020 I already paid for 2020, Sabres too. Any games I can't attend or get cancelled roll over to 2021 so I'm good. 2

Oil and Gas drilling industry is in trouble, Terry and Kim can't just drill another well and need the money, better get that 20% to them right away! 20 minutes ago, PromoTheRobot said: I already paid for 2020, Sabres too.

The pandemic and canceling of games was the best thing to happen to the Sabres this year...... 29 minutes ago, Justin C said: Illinois just announced their Phase 4 plan starting Friday, which allows 20% capacity for outdoor sporting events.

I had just read something recently talking about how the league could have teams playing at 30% capacity this year, except for the Cowboys and Texans who could play to full crowds because they were removing all these restrictions there. That may have changed now....... 1

BILLS, BILLS BILLS.....But I love football and wanted my family to have the same experience of being an NFL fan. Going to NFL games in Buffalo and NJ has been a family highlight full of great memories. But I did create a split family 1

I hope I am wrong but I don't think they will have a choice. Hard to see fans at games this year. New Era holds 72,000 so even at 25% capacity that is still 18,000 people. Restaurants won't be allowed full capacity right away when people are allowed to eat inside so I can't see gatherings as large as a football crowd being allowed in the stadium even at a reduced capacity.
Liberal Bob Posted June 23, 2020 Posted June 23, 2020 I am hearing that other pro and college teams are considering not allowing ticket transfers this year. When you have to pick and choose who are the select few season ticket holders that will be allowed to go to the games this year I guess that makes sense. If you can't use your tickets you simply turn them back into the team for credit and that would allow other season ticket holders to use their seats. I would guess that this policy would cause a few issues though.
