Interesting. Didn't think wouldnt come so soon.

 

Kinda weird players don't have to be vexed yet fans do.

 

Let's not make this political.

 

Thoughts?

Very bad move not allowing proof of a negative test in lieu of a vaccine.

This will be an even more fun gate-entry on game day.

They couldn't enforce the mask mandates they had in place so let's just go one further

It’s pretty easy to get a counterfeit vaccine card.  People selling them stand to make some good money now 

Pretty easy Felony arrest too

Good. The policy before this was absolutely useless. This should have been what they did from the beginning.

[Brennan Huff]

I feel bad for the ticket reps right now. A lot of pissed off fans calling as I type this….

The overwhelming number of current Covid patients hospitalized are unvaxed. It’s very obvious where the problem lies.

 

Lots of folks on this forum never let facts get in the way of their "outrage."  Amazing.

 

Kudos to the Bills.  Get the shot.

I'm just hear for the tears.

You actually think they are calling to check lol.  All they look at are the dates 

unless they make it where you have to download the app that has a QR code.

I guess I'm surprised they went from week 1 of having an unenforced mask policy to now having a fully vaccinated or GTFO policy. 

 

I'd be surprised if this doesn't revert back to the standard mask/honor system that you see at most businesses.

Nvm

Will they be refunding any ticket sales for fans that bought tickets and aren't or don't plan on getting vaccinated? Seems like some people might want money returned 

 

[Edit: answer downthread.  summary: yes if you've seasons; no if you don't have seasons; deadline for refund 17 September so Get On It]

It's even easier (and free) to get vaccinated.

They gave fans a chance. I respect it.
