Season Ticket Holders - Who moved seats?

Rumor has it @CountryCletus now sits 5 rows closer to the field than last year.

Lies. They would just add more tarps

I considered trying, but like my seats.  Sect 333 about 1/2 way up.  Perfect seats, and like the people in front and behind us. Can see the Jumbo Tron and the two mini screens well, and have a good view of the whole field.
 

Maybe would have moved down a few? But it’s a circus down there. People standing all the time.  Clogged with people in the aisle.

How many season ticket holders do the Bills have 50,000, 60,000? Wait until they transfer fans from the current stadium to the new stadium. If the stadium opens in 2026 then expect the Bills to ask season ticket holders to put down a deposit for tickets in the new stadium if not in 2024 then definitely 2025. Season ticket holders with the most seniority will get first choice as to where they want to sit in the new stadium. I went through this going from Giants Stadium to MetLife. Assuming the Bills do what, the Jets and Giants did.

They are supposed to start this summer. It’s a company called Legends that will be doing everything. The Bills aren’t even handling it. They are allowing the 3rd party to do it all then when the stadium is built, Legends will be transferring their info over to the Bills reps. 
 

ST holders will be called by seniority by section. So basically if you are on the sideline in the current stadium, they will get to you by your seniority for sidelines in the new stadium. Offering you a similar ticket to what you currently have now. If you currently sit in the end zones with 50+ years seniority, don’t expect to get offered any seat you want in the new stadium. You’ll simply be one of the first ones called for end zone seats. 
 

if your a suite or club seat holder, you’ll get whatever you want. You will be called first. Before even people work 30 years seniority in the lower bowl. Because, you know, they cater to the important people.

For me at Giants Stadium I had tickets on the sidelines. But the price to sit in the same spot at MetLife they were going to charge me with a $10,000 per seat PSL fee. I have two seats. I said F that. I now sit behind the endzone. The PSL fee for those seats is $5,000 per seat. It will depend on the cost. People will try to sit in the same area that they currently do but $$$ will play a factor.

It's definitely going to be interesting to see how that plays out.  To state the obvious, this ain't NYC.  People are complaining about a 12% hike in ticket prices, what will they say when they on or about double, if not more for the best seats, plus PSLs.  

 

I only do secondaries now, it was too much of a hassle trying to sell the games I didn't go to.  I'm sure it's better now with Ticketmaster doing the heavy lifting, but still.  As well, that way I can keep an eye on the weather and if it's going to be crap then I'll pick another game later in the season and watch that one from the comfort of home or a Bills bar somewhere.

This is an Absolute Joke!! I have 2 Season tickets waiting to move away for better viewing - All single seats in lower level available. Nothing else??

I’ll keep existing seats but Now will only go to two games next year- very disgusted with this BS process!!

Thanks Bills ticket office For Absolutely Nothing!

oh: seat representative is out until May.. LOL!

 

Yep. There’s a reason why many of just buy the individual game tickets from season ticket holders.

 

Less risk (for example if Allen got hurt week 2, the rest of the season tickets is worthless), and we can sit where we choose.

I’m just stating what’s going to happen. They are offering people seats in similar area in the new stadium first. After you say no, I have no idea what happens after that.

You would think the team would look at those single seat areas and ask people with tickets to move over one seat to create more open areas with multiple seats. Offer them an incentive like food vouchers or a discount on their renewal.

to my knowledge they don’t fill the stadium 100% with season tix holders. They have a limit at 55k or 60k or something like that, I think. They just keep individual game tix available per league rules I believe. So this actually helps those numbers. I’m not 100% in this but makes sense.

Any other Season Ticket holders move seats? 

 

Let's hear what you got.

 

We went from the middle of row 13, section 224 (tunnel end) to aisle seats, row 31, section 104 (scoreboard end).  MUCH happier.

 

Also ... if you have the seat cushions, how did you get them?

 

I am a HUGE fan of aisle seats! I’d pay extra to be on the aisle, or very close. Well done!

 

I’ll buy seats from any of you when I make it up for a game. Unfortunately, going thru my usual secondary market sources I’ll pay roughly the GDP of Guatemala in fees, but that’s life. Sometimes I get lucky and avoid the middle man, but not often.

Agreed.  Aisle seats are gold.  Over the years, I've managed to get either aisle, or close to aisle, seats for most games I've attended.

Yes, I move my season tickets every year, last year it was the porch but it got cold in December so this year it's the kitchen

Only issue with isle is how many times throughout the game you have to get up for people coming and going to the bathroom/bar/etc. being right in the middle of the row has its perks. You don’t have to deal with people every other play. Just a couple times a game

I looked at moving our 3 but ultimately didn't want to eat the additional cost of jumping into the 200 level.

Yeah, that's definitely an issue.  NOBODY is worse than Patriots fans.  They don't even watch the f*cking game.  They get out of their seats 15 times.

In the clubs it wasn’t exactly the even rows but I can tell you row 10 in the Toyota clubs were deeper than the other rows. 
 

I found that out by sitting in like 100 different seats all over the stadium on a tour before we bought the clubs.
