We can't even gather outside?

We can't even gather outside? Why would that be any safer than being inside the stadium? You wanna have a shot out of the Pinto Kenny bowling ball after 100 other people? Bills tailgates aren't exactly a social-distanced event. 4
StHustle Posted July 1, 2020 Posted July 1, 2020 Yep, it's now OFFICIAL. No fans at New Era this year. Which means the NFL must ban fans at ALL stadiums. Would be unfair if teams in certain states could have their fans attend home games. 2
stevestojan Posted July 1, 2020 Posted July 1, 2020 Gather outside? Have you been to a bills game? At any given time there are 400 million people in every bathroom. And 405 million people in line for beer. With half of each screaming “hey-a-hey-a.” Now mind you, I live in Hoboken, so more sensitive to it, and I appreciate the fact that WNY is basically the Midwest and should not be held to the same restrictions as NYC. But the argument that’s it’s “gathering outside” is ridiculous. 5

If you had to bet, though, you wouldn't probably bet against this continuing moving forward.
qwksilver Posted July 1, 2020 Posted July 1, 2020 So that leaves the obvious question: can the Jets & Giants have fans? 1
PromoTheRobot Posted July 1, 2020 Posted July 1, 2020 If the price of playing this season is no fans, I'll make that deal. Right now the odds are against the NFL playing at all. (Thanks Florida, Texas, Arizona...) 15 1 3

Preseason starts next month. Not sure what magic potion you think will clear things up by then where allowing a stadium of people to sit, stand and jump around yelling and screaming around each other for hours would be responsible decision making. 2
Buffalo Boy Posted July 1, 2020 Posted July 1, 2020 I just want games!!!! Im guessing well over 90% of us agree on this. IF we actually get a 16 game regular season it will be an epic victory! 7

I would expect that they will have the potential to change this week by week, or even month by month. I hope the Bills are forced to refund me for the preseason games, and i can start going in either september or october.

In other places, -not so much..... Gotta love American politics. New York city was the situs of the worst coronavirus outbreak in the WORLD, and somehow the Governor that oversaw that train-wreck is praised for his "leadership." 18 1 3 6
