In 2018, $863 mil. In 2019, and have bank note owed in 2024-25 of $3.6 bil. I’m sure they eventually will be fine and make an interesting product, but do they want an additional spend of $4 mil/yr. when economists have reported the advertising does not equate to increased sales by renaming a stadium. That’s why a monster company that sells everywhere like several such as Target, Amazon, etc. can absorb the cost and not work up a sweat. Wegman’s as many know is a privately held company in an industry that has razor thin margins. They may be worth $9.2 bil., but they run their company somewhat lean. They are a great company to work for as reported by Forbes.

A stadium naming deal is not.

When a big part of your household income comes from an industry you tend to learn a lot about it and pay attention to things lots of people don't. Sugar Mama pays a lot of bills, hence I know a lot about groceries. ?

T master Posted July 21, 2020 Posted July 21, 2020 What i would like to know is who exactly pays for the removal of the New Era signage the Pegs or New Era ? I would think that if New Era is backing out the cost should be on them .

Call Target, they've got bedsheets. Better yet, Goodwill might have some 'gently used' ones. * If they do go the 'removal' route, maybe for an extra sawbuck, the contractor can pry OJ's name of the Wall of Fame. (For those thinking it deserves to come down.) Edited July 21, 2020 by Ridgewaycynic2013 1

This ^^^, Wegmans has been one of the best run businesses in the entire country for years, and they rank very high as a good place to work, that and they already make a bundle off the Bills with all the game day food they sell.

In the interim, they should name the stadium: Jim Kelly Field Remember when he had a consortium of people in place to buy the bills, then he vanished when the team went up for sale... ah memories also - if I were pegs, I’d consider courting geico. They have a billion dollar marketing budget and decent WNY presence. Edited July 21, 2020 by Over 29 years of fanhood 1
Mr. WEO Posted July 21, 2020 Posted July 21, 2020 The naming deal was 5-6 million a year. The Bills 2018 revenue was $386 million, with a margin of $82 million. This is all extra money for Pegula and family (and their "lifestyle preservation"). They will likely survive without that extra 5 mil per annum. Just call it what it is: Bills Stadium (although I would be good with "Bill's Stadium" as well).
Coffeesforclosers Posted July 21, 2020 Posted July 21, 2020 We here in the 518 are praying for the day Danny says ***** it and finally mops up Price Chopper. Price Chopper's Market 32 type stores are just knock-off Wegmans anyway.

Similar to the snow removal process. 1
