LISTEN UP!
 

We need a discussion thread for the highly relevant issue of new HIghmark Stadium vaccination requirements - how to handle vaccine card requirements, apps, how to re-sell tickets if desired, refund policy and consequences, stadium entry concerns etc.

 

Please try to refrain from becoming an internet epidemiologist or virologist, and recall that there are many many other places on the interwebs to have general political or covid-19 discussion. 

Keep it directly related to Highmark Stadium and to Bills Football, Please

 

That Is All.  Thanks People!

What happens if I do not want to get vaccinated? • Season Ticket Members: All Season Ticket Members will receive an email that outlines specific guidelines to request a refund for the remaining pro-rated amount of your tickets. Suites and club seat Season Ticket Members will receive separate communication with specific guidelines pertinent to their account. • Single Game Buyers: There will be no refunds for single game purchasers. Single game purchasers who are unable to meet the above

Don't get a refund, you'll screw yourself.....    

Caution: There is a downside to requesting a refund for your Season Tickets.

Added some information confirming that our Canadian friends will be able to enter the US and Highmark with a combination of two doses of any vaccine:    

Link to information about which vaccines are accepted, for Canadian and International travelers

As I said Easy Felony.  Dont think they will not be looking out for the Fakes

 

For those like me who had no idea what CLEAR is:

@plenzmd1 might be a solution for you?  I have not vetted it for privacy concerns etc.

 

Like I said in the first thread, another solution might be a waterproof travel wallet to be worn around the neck.

Lots of folks on this forum never let facts get in the way of their "outrage."  Amazing.   Kudos to the Bills.  Get the shot.

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

My Excelsior Pass is expired because I got the vaccine a year ago.  Will have to keep the card safe.  

 

Have you tried entering it again?  Mine had "expired" a few months ago, but I was able to re-enter my info and get a new expiration date.

I think a lot of people need to figure out the differences between Rights and privileges. 
 

attending a football game is NOT a right. 
 

just like driving. You have the privilege of driving as long as have a license, Insurance and Registration. 
 

you have the Privilege to go to a Bills game in person as long as you buy entry and now have a COVID vaccine.

That article does not refute anything I have said about ICU's full of Covid patients.  In fact, it suggests rates of ICU admission would be a better statistic than overall hospitalizations.  

 

It will not take you much digging to find plenty of evidence that ICUs around the country are at capacity and they're full of people who thought vaccines were stupid until it was too late.

RIP Norm MacDonald by the way.  The magnitude of his loss is something we can all agree on.

Damn, just saw that.  That sucks!  He had cancer?  Did he keep that private?

We have a vaccine passport where I live. So many people up in arms about it, and we even had protests at hospitals where people were shouting at doctors and nurses. The level of stupid is immense. I’m happy to see that some action is being taken. Can’t blame the Bills, because it wasn’t their decision. But, I will definitely feel safer at a game where this is the mandate. Also, surrounded by those who care about others. That’s a nice feeling as well

Not sure I really agree with this rule... but it is what it is.

 

 

The choice is simple.  get vaccinated, or don't attend games.  If you have tickets it should be easy to recoup your money at this point.  Season Tickets can be outright refunded.

Yeah, doesn't work.  I was in the clinical trial, so they haven't accounted for the fact that people like me got the shot over a year ago.

Yup.  Sucks.  His "Germany vs. the World" bit is one of the all-time greats, followed closely by his Crocodile Hunter bit.  Both on YouTube and worth a watch if you're up for some levity.

He will be missed for sure.  That's a kick to the gut.  Same way I felt when Carlin died.  At least their great material will live on.

They can, but....

Surrendering your tickets will terminate your season ticket rights and benefits. You will lose your seat location and your season ticket seniority.

What’s the work around. Religious exemption? 

 

Nothing about that so far. 

 

Back in Da Day (1920s-30s) when one needed to show proof of smallpox vaccination to get into a theatre for entertainment, the court rulings IIRC were that not being able to attend a specific show at that specific theater was not an infringement on your rights and liberty, so that sort of accommodation may not apply here.

Privilege will also get you into the stadium without showing any papers. 

Nope it won’t. But try it. Head to the Gate next Sunday and walk right in.

I will be at the Bills-Dolphins game next Sunday.  I would not expect there to be a whole lot more mask wearers there either.    

 

As for the vaccine, the last vaccine I got I believe was for Smallpox in the back of my shoulder probably 50+ years ago.  (the one that left the circular mark)  I don't plan on getting another one in my lifetime.

 

Lol at you saying I won't be getting the vaccine and that you'll be at the Dolphins game. Hate to break it to ya pal, you won't be in the stadium.
