Awesome. Mind me asking are you a suite holder? Club seat member? General admission? And what your suite/club/seat seniority is.

I did the same thing with a timeshare. Be prepared for the sales pitch and be prepared to walk out.

I am a club seat holder but less than 7 years. I am also a lower bowl STH for 30 years but do not believe that entered into the priority.

Yeah I was told numerous times that the lower bowl seniority won’t factor in for the club members. Clubs will have first access to the new stadium then the seniority of the lower bowl comes into play. Awesome. Interested to hear about your experience.

I spoke with the new stadium STH rep and mentioned that I also had lower bowl season tickets which she saw on my account. I asked whether I could combine these 4 together in club seats in the new stadium and she said yes. That surprised me a little as I was expecting equal exchange in STH club # of seats in the new stadium.

That’s pretty informative. Actually shocked they would allow that. But something telling me the amount of club seats is going to be about 3x as many as what’s in the current stadium.

I just want the center to open because at that point anyone who goes through it will have to be given PSL & ticket prices. 
 

Enquiring minds want to know!! 😂

Did you reach out to them, or did they call you?  I’ve had my club seats for 20 years now and the only contact so far was an introductory email from the new STH rep.

Same here. I emailed my rep yesterday but no response yet.

First my current club seat rep contacted me and informed me about the new stadium rep who would be following up with me. Then the new rep called me a few days later and discussed attending the stadium experience. I noted to her that I am a remote STH and not in the area often but planned to be there in March. Then today I received the invite from her. On the Bills Stadium Experience site, I could select the date & time for my appt. and whether I was bringing any guests (up to 3).

I’ll say it again….this all sounds more and more like a timeshare sales presentation than anything else….which isn’t a good thing! I’ve been Mr Optimistic through all of my posts on the new stadium, but I’m rapidly changing my mind.

I mean obviously their goal and the point of this is to sell new season tickets and get people to commit(PSL's and all)...what exactly were you expecting?

I wasn't expecting them to use the high pressure tactics that are EXACTLY like those infamously assigned to the Time Share industry. This is the 21st Century. All of this smells like something out of the 1950s.

As long as we're talking about timeshares, I'll give a typical, lovely, first hand experience with timeshare shenanigans. LOL

 

We were in Gatlinburg, Tennessee, walking on the Parkway, when we saw a "free tickets" booth (for local shows/you pick one show). Only catch was you had to give them $20 cash (refundable if you show up to their spiel), and attend a 60 minute presentation....it was billed as including breakfast. Get there the next morning and the breakfast was crappy, small donuts and coffee. Temperature in the conference room was about 65°. After an hour we wanted to get out of there, but they were still going strong, and made it nearly impossible to leave, but at 80 minutes we were finally able to leave and go to a counter to get our show tickets and our $20 cash...that took about 20 more minutes in line at the counter, and then they didn’t give us cash though, it was a check which we could only cash at a certain bank in town. We did go to that bank and get our $20, just out of spite.

 

The really crazy thing is that we actually were interested in buying in to the program, but after the way we were treated, no way in h*ll was that going to happen. And it took the briefer FOREVER to get to the actual cost of the program.
