Mickey Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 (edited) I faxed my approval to the league office and received a prompt reply of "How did you get this number?". Ha! The staff is always kidding me like that, once they even had a fake restraining order served on me. They went all out, it looked totally real.

BuffaloBills1998 Posted December 15, 2022 Author Share Posted December 15, 2022 12 hours ago, SoMAn said: But, they’ll probably have to execute a drawn out environmental study before the first shovel of dirt is thrown. For someone living in Atlanta, it’s astounding to me how slowly progress is made in NYS. The layers of bureaucracy is mind-boggling. When there was talk of building a new stadium for the Falcons, they got the ball rolling and 3 years later they were playing in the Georgia Dome. 20+ years later, did it again and built Mercedes Benz Stadium. The Bills and league have been talking new stadium since Doug Flutie and the stadium rehab of early 2000’s. As far as the new stadium goes…I’ll believe it when I see it. BTW- how’s that new Peace Bridge project coming along? Believe it when you see it?? I guess you better believe it since they just confirmed the deal is done by signing a lease extension on highmark and the 30 year lease for the new stadium.

I'm fairly sure it's happening. Just skeptical of what other agents or other issues that may delay the 2026 opening. Understand, I've been hearing 'new stadium' for over 20 years. Starting to feel like Linus every year, waiting for the Great Pumpkin who never arrives. The fact that it will take nearly 4 years the build is what surprised me. The empire state building was completed in 13 months over 90 years ago. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the Bills would’ve been in their new stadium already if Cuomo didn’t put the new stadium on the back burner for so long. I think the Pegulas wanted the stadium earlier and Cuomo kept putting it off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beast Posted December 17, 2022 Share Posted December 17, 2022 I was hoping they’d get evicted and have to play their home games at Pioneer Central until the new stadium is built. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
