Niagara County says hello!

 

I was hoping everyone got what I was saying without having to post latitude and longitude coordinates.

 

Guess not.

Why not just say what you meant instead of hyperbole?

By Canadians? Be nice. I like Canadians.

 

I did too. They brought Canadian beer but I hated when we were playing penny ante cards and I'd go home with a bunch of coins not worth as much as coins I lost.

Should have played in 2016. The loonie actually exceeded the dollar for a while that year.

It’s business suicide to require the jab.

 

No games will be sold out this year and it will get worse the longer this requirement continues…
 

 

Why will it get worse?  What will change from present circumstances that fewer people will buy tickets?  They already lost about 762 holders that opted out. Maybe some more won’t renew next year. But maybe some people will choose to get vaxed and will be in the eligible pool. 
 

Or is it just wishful thinking on your part?

Not for nothing, I just looked for tickets on 10/3. Didnt seem to be super cheap as though tens of thousands of people were desperately unloading tickets. Maybe it's that most of us believe one thing and you believe the other. If not feel free to DM me with tickets you are unloading for pennies on the dollar. It's my son's only open weekend of the entire season.

If I were to look at it from a strictly selfish standpoint, I’d probably think I was a winner as I almost always buy my tickets on the secondary market. Less demand?  The market sets the market…… .   🤷‍♀️

 

This is NOT about the policy, strictly about economics.

Many years ago I had a buddy living a couple hours from Cincinnati. We went to visit one weekend and his “kinda” buddy had a bunch of extra Bengals tickets, I think it was 20. We made a deal, we pay face value for our four (maybe $50/per at the time) and we will split what we can scalp the rest for. I’m laughing at how stupid we were! The other 16 tickets went for about $2 each!   😂

 

Live and learn!  It was well worth the $96 to be able to laugh about it now! 

 

 

EDIT: Thanks to whoever cleaned that up.

I don't think tickets are selling for pennies on the dollar

 

But I know a few  season ticket holders who are selling their tickets

As much as I disagree with the policy, I don't honestly see this being an issue in the ticket sales department. 

 

Possibly the first few games it takes a minute to correct, but long term it isn't an issue IMO.

Hell no.  There’s at least 58,000 season ticket holders.  700 is nothing and actually I’m surprised the number isn’t higher.  

The self proclaimed silent majority is in fact a noisy minority

I know several young women who plan to have families and know the risks associated with the jab and can just watch the Bills kick ass at home.

 

Go Bills

 

Doctors recommend women who are pregnant to get the jab even more so. I'm confused if you're implying it's more risky for them or not. If I misread that, disregard

I don't see it as necessary, or wise, to vaccinate myself simply because my football teams county demands I do so to watch them play at Highmark.  

 

 

For football, no. But is it "necessary or wise to vaccinate yourself" for about a hundred other far more important reasons, regardless of if you have previously had COVID? Absolutely. But it's your choice so you do you!

I’ll skip the political debate. Especially since you prefer not to bring up your beliefs publicly and make noise

I just wanna know how much longer it's gonna take at the gates. I highly doubt they'll be doing much more than glancing at cards.

I work in reproductive medicine.  The American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology recommend vaccination for pregnant women.  The American Society for Reproductive Medicine recommend vaccination for women and their partners undergoing fertility treatments.  They do so because there is no data linking the vaccine to any problems with pregnany.

Give it time, give all this time. The whole process stinks to high heaven.

Ridiculous assertion.

I'm actually fine now with everybody needing to show proof of vaccination (I'll watch from home or bar) but don't you think it's kind of funny that they don't need to show a positive test? I mean look at the buccaneers they're 100% vaccinated and Antonio Brown's not playing tomorrow because he has .....wait for it .........covid

 

 

 and I'll add that my area is getting hit hard with Delta right now but I was just at a hockey party and out all of the dads that were there I was the only one UNvaccinated and as of Saturday 8:22 I'm the only one who does not have covid.

I even took two tests to make sure.

 

 

Vaccinated people are at lower risk of transmitting and at much lower risk of getting seriously ill or dying.

This question is probably far too valid to be answered on this post 😆. Have we heard any estimates from the team of how early people should arrive at the gates ?

Just now, Mr. WEO said:

 

If 827 participants had a pregnancy that resulted in a live birth, spontaneous abortion (miscarriage), stillbirth, induced abortion or ectopic pregnancy...what happened to the other 3039 study participants who were vaccinated while pregnant?  They are only reporting results on 21% of the pregnancy outcomes of participants.

There are multiple studies showing the data indicating there is no increased miscarriage rate.  I look at the actual studies.  You are looking at a women’s magazine.  Look at the studies.

 

Do you honestly believe the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology, the leading organization in the country for women’s health, would say the vaccine is safe if it’s not?

I read somewhere  2.5 hours.

[r00tabaga]

So nobody cares that only the fans are required to be vaccinated at Bills games. Not the guy that pats you down? 

Shouldn't ALL personnel be required?

What about the guy handing you a beer or a hot dog.

The players on the field???

 

🤔
