Going today.

 

Currently sit section 333 halfway up.

 

Nervous how much the PSL’s will be.  Heard 5k per seat….  Can’t believe that to be true.

 

$2500/seat for upper deck 50 yard line.  This is a pic from the FB group about the new stadium, using what has been reported from people that have already gone.

I’ve heard 5 years 10% interest.

 

You also have 0% if you can pay it off prior to stadium opening. Unsure of what the cutoff date is to pay it off.

 

Three options.

1) Pay it off entirely

2) Pay it off before Nov 2026 at 0% interest

3) 10 year loan at 10% interest through M&T Bank.

Didn’t see any of this. Thanks for posting!

 

I should be a bit less than $2500. I’m a section or so over from to what’s reported in upper deck.  Unless I’m missing something.

 

edit: Wonder if the 5K I’ve heard was for two tickets then…

Just my opinion, but I think the upper deck 50’s are going to be the best value in the entire place.

 

Completely shielded from weather, great view, and relatively cheap.

I have to agree. That price doesn’t seem unreasonable when spread out over the many years of the PSL. Heck, that’s equivalent to only FIVE years of Sunday Ticket. 😂

I agree. It makes me wonder why they didn’t have more of the lower bowl covered? If they wanted to remain outdoors, you probably should have covered almost all of the seats. The last few years of snow and rain have been pretty brutal. While some people prefer being outside, I don’t know 1 person that likes getting rained on when it’s 45 degrees. 🤣🤣

Buddy of mine went yesterday not much available in lower rows he had to settle for row 13 and I believe there is only 15 rows. Personally I would’ve picked lower level end zones which I did instead of sitting up that high. Same psl price

Agreed.  It looks like the covering is a lot less than what the model or Tottenham used  Almost none of the lower bowl, minus a few rows on the home side (also weird) is covered.  

If nothing else, help prevent having to dig out more seats during storms.

is it weird or just physics regarding the lower bowl coverage?

 

I am nervously awaiting my call (currently in section 335 row 20). Hoping for under 2k per PSL but we shall see!

Yeah.

Thats why I like the Tottenham design better (even though ours is modeled after it). It is an open-air stadium but the overhang covers all the seats.

It would have given best of both worlds.

I know my Physics. I don't know architecture.

I'm clearly missing some important details because there is no physics on earth that makes this small overhang have te ability to cover more than half of the stadiums seats. I know picture angles can skew things but I have seen the roof from numerous angles now and every single one looks like it *barely* covers the upper deck. And in some places it looks like it doesn't even cover the full upper deck. 

 

On the left side of this picture you can see some seats are covered from the seats above it - there must be a largeeee number of seats under there.

I'm thinking much simpler here as in - the lower bowl sticks out more than the upper on the slope that they are built along, so of course the lower bowl is not covered while the upper is. Maybe I wasn't reading the post I was responding to properly idk.

I think that's going to be the "sweet spot" on pricing for many. I didn't make the Tottenham trip, but I had friends sit high up and they said the view was fantastic.

 

Will be interesting to to see the resell pricing when the weather gets bad at the end of the year.

So…all set!!  Section 409.  
 

2,500 per ticket PSL. Down payment of $1000 on the spot if choosing the 20 month payment option @$200 per month, or the M&T Bank finance option of 6 years at about $72 bucks per month and paying about $1,500 in interest.

 

Seats have great leg room. Wider than current lower bowl seats. Only concern? Will be close to being underneath press box and up against the back wall of the section. Wonder if there will be problems with the sound?  Otherwise, out of the weather perfectly!

 

Had the option to look elsewhere for seats. End zones are the same PSL fees. Looked at both end zones and almost pulled the trigger on Section 150 aisle seats.  4 rows from the concourse. Liked them based on the ease to get to the seats and leave.

 

Other endzone was cool seats next to some club seats? Not sure what the club is, but they looked like normal seats. Issue was, it was an end of the aisle seat up against the club seats which has a short divider between the club sections up against the seat…don’t want the rabble mixing with the club goers! 🤣

 

Was there about two hours. Didn’t feel pressured at all. Nice experience.  Was concerned where my seats would be in the new stadium and cost! Figured it would be 1K to 2k based on what other tix were going for. Was off by just 500 bucks.  Pretty much took my seat at The Ralph and put me in the new stadium! Pretty happy!  Gonna miss some of the people I sit near, not sure if they will all end up in the same area or not.

 

Parking for regular season ticket holders will be where the current lots are now (non ECC). There will be 3 new large lots up against the stadium that is for club seat owners.  Eventually, the current stadium will be razed for additional parking.

How many times are we going to go over this? You cannot gauge the depth of the overhang from these photos. The stadium cross section drawings have been presented numerous times. The overhang extends out over the entirety of the upper deck. Period!

(And because the upper deck has a larger circumference than the lower deck each row there has many more seats than the corresponding row in the lower deck.)

 

Finally, Tottenham has an additional cantilevered extension of translucent material beyond the metal deck roof that covers the entirety of the seating bowl while still allowing diffused natural light to get to the natural grass field.

I asked if the further from the fifty upper deck sections would be less and the sales guy said he didn’t know.

 

I can’t imagine they are more line 2k further out.

I’ll believe it when I see it 😂.

 

Every time I see new angles of the stadium I believe more and more that the cross-section was marketing propaganda.

To be clear, I acknowledged it will cover the upper deck. I just don’t believe that will be 60% of the seats.

I see what your saying but look how big that upper deck is , you capture a shitload of fans there. The clubs are enclosed so them in and you pry get 60%.  However the wind will still everybody wet most likely.

Yes I’m sure the architects are part of some larger marketing conspiracy.

20K to 50K for the better seats so far. I know these are the way of life for quite some time but I can't help but to feel these are the ultimate slap in the face. Billionaires come to taxpayers to fund much of their stadiums, then insult them and make them pay huge sums just to have the right to buy season tickets. One time purchase? OK, but it's a big one. It's not like the tickets themselves are free.

 

Welcome to the NFL.  As long as people are willing [foolish enough] to keep paying, they have no reason to change.  I sure wouldn't in their shoes.

60% seat coverage is what we were told during our Stadium Experience sales pitch. That might include some upper row seats throughout stadium that are actually covered by the section stacked above them. The first seats we were offered were tucked just under the section above. We ultimately moved out into the uncovered Bills sideline (closer to the field) and to the 20 yard line (from the goal-line). Same price as what was originally offered.

The upper deck is pretty small in the new stadium!

 

Count the rows across this sideline for example:

 

 

Because of the shape of the stadium, certain areas have more and some have less. But I think the average is around 15 rows - which is less than half of the rows in the current upper deck.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Looks like another deck above that?
