Call_Of_Ktulu Posted January 25, 2022 Posted January 25, 2022 I was hoping for a Down Town Stadium but I can see why they will put it in OP. I am now just hoping for a dome or retractable roof. Hochul is a nut case though so who knows what will happen. 1 Quote

"Did nothing for the city"... is that from YouTube research? It's actually been verified by multiple studies including the bills own stadium study That NFL stadiums do not cause a massive uptick to an economy.. they said it would bring the same amount of impact as a new Target .. that is what the Bills stadium study said It's not a city revitalizer Edited January 25, 2022 by Buffalo716 1 1 Quote

Rock-A-Bye Beasley Posted January 26, 2022 Posted January 26, 2022 Buffalo really is a 3rd or 4th rate city. Can’t wait to get out of here again. They spent thousands to evaluate the best location for a new stadium and the answer is across the street?! What are the odds, if they truly considered other options, that is true? If there is any tax money used it shouldn’t be completely up to the Pegulas. I’d rather they spend an extra half a billion to build it downtown than waste the entire amount in the middle of nowhere. 3 hours ago, Buffalo716 said: It's actually been verified by multiple studies including the bills own stadium study That NFL stadiums do not cause a massive uptick to an economy.. they said it would bring the same amount of impact as a new Target .. that is what the Bills stadium study said It's not a city revitalizer Just not true Quote

Billznut Posted January 26, 2022 Posted January 26, 2022 3 hours ago, Mr. WEO said: why are people still thinking it might be downtown? Right? Half the people want it downtown. More than half want a dome. Neither is happening. I guess a lot of people like setting themselves up for massive disappointment. Seems it would be less painful to stop banging one’s head against the wall. 1 Quote

Buffalo rising is a mouth piece for Rocco Termani. It ain't going to happen. Rocco should direct his efforts in remolding grain elevators. Quote
